DATE: Victorian, c.1870

An exquisite pair of Victorian pique earrings dating from the latter half of the 19th Century, circa 1870. The main sections are reminiscent of obelisks, and they're inlayed with gold floral motifs and dangle from pique orbs - each orb set with a gold star - articulated so the move freely when worn.
