Description
A wonderful pair of Maltese Cross faux garnet pearl drop gold earrings that are modern with an ancient flair. Richly plated in 18k gold, they have built-in lever back closures.
The earrings measure 1 1/4 inches long by 5/8 of an inch wide. The pearls are approximately 8 mm in diameter and slightly baroque.
The condition is excellent, with no loss of plating overall except for a little darkening on the pearl caps which gives it character.
They are marked on the back but the plating is so rich it has subdued the stamp and it cannot be read.
Garnet is the birthstone for the month of January.
