These unusual and impressive antique earrings date from the Victorian era. The earrings are made of carved and polished natural horn and are set with 9ct yellow gold ear hooks.
The earrings measure 5.4cms height / drop (including the gold bale but excluding the ear hooks) and they have a combined weight of 8.2g
There are no hallmarks but the ear hooks test as 9ct yellow gold.
These antique earrings are around 150 years old and are in very good condition for their age, with no damage and showing just light signs of age / general wear. The horn has a low sheen polished finish. The horn is natural and each earring naturally has different colour / pattern variation with one earring having more of the lighter coloured detail.
