Antique Australian 9ct Rose Gold Opal Phial/Vial Earrings Circa 1900’s
Originally crafted using screw backs we have made the decision to suspend the drops with vintage, almost antique, shepherds hooks but the original fittings will included with purchase.
The hooks are strong and allow the drops to seamlessly swish when worn, a lovely touch! Dropping from the ear and incredible 6.7cm, these earrings make quite the noticeable statement when worn.
Weighing an impressive 13.8 grams, a testament to their quality handcrafted manufacture.
Incredibly rare to find, these earrings are in exceptional condition despite their age, a true heirloom piece. Not only are they the perfect accessory to complete your day to night look but an investments also.
