VICTORIAN or earlier antique cut steel drop earrings with foil backed red tinted glass cabochon centers

Price: $698.00
Description VICTORIAN or earlier antique cut steel drop earrings with foil backed red tinted glass cabochon centers.  The centers look like they are rose tinted and foiled underneath, typical for this era, and the crackles you see are decorative, not damage.  In other words, the top of the cabochons are perfectly smooth with no damage at all.  The earring itself is 1-5/8" and the hoops are 1/2" above that.

Tinted and foiled quartz pieces can be seen in the wonderful book "Georgian Jewellery" by Ginny Reddington & Tom Dawes on page 102, where they date them to about 1790.
