Antique Victorian Carved Cherubs Day-to-Night Earrings
Darling, Angelic.
We do love our cherubs, putti, angels, and Cupids. These mid-19th century Victorian earrings feature four sculptural cherubs, masterfully carved from natural coral. The coral is that lovely soft yet saturated hue favored by the Victorians. We love coral for the summer, yet of course these beauties are the perfect pops of color any time.
So darling to see that the cherubs on the pendant drops face away from each other, with their feathered wings neatly folded. Perhaps best of all? These are day-to-night — with the pendants removable. Two pairs of earrings in one!
The earring tops (the “day” portions) sit close to the earlobe, with the drops articulated below, for movement.
Unmarked.
14k gold, natural coral
Dimensions and weight.
● 52 mm long
● 11.3 mm wide
● 9 mm deep
● 9.4 grams
Period: Victorian
*Please note that all dimensions and weights are approximate (and there may be slight variations between each earring, as they are hand carved). Age-commensurate wear may be present. We found these earrings with later replacement screw-back fittings; for more comfortable and secure wear, we re-fitted these with shepherd’s hooks.
*This item is available to ship within the U.S. only. Please contact us for shipping information for Alaska or Hawaii.
