A Pair Of Vintage Diamond Target Drop Earrings
A pair of vintage diamond target drop earrings, each earring consisted of an old European-cut diamond surrounded by a row of calibrated synthetic rubies and an outer row of round old-cut diamonds, diamonds estimated to weigh a total of 3.75 carats, suspended from a single old-cut diamond-set top, all set in platinum and yellow gold, with gold continental style ear fittings. A dazzling pair of vintage style earrings. They each feature a sparkling old-cut diamond surrounded by a frame of synthetic rubies, which were very popular in the early years of the twentieth century. Framing the synthetic rubies is a cluster of further lively diamonds. These eye-catching earrings would pair perfectly with a sleek cocktail dress or evening gown. Joanna Hardy says: “These Victorian ruby and diamond target earrings have a great look. They are showy, with bright stones, particularly the nicely matched rubies that have been carefully set around the centre diamond.”
