20k Antique Diamond Curved Stud Earrings Chinese
Antique cluster diamond studs set with old cut brilliant diamonds weighing 0.9ctw in 20k.
These diamond studs are Straits Chinese earrings, belonging to the culture of this region.
They are peculiar for that East-West flavour, an unmissable blend of Victorian and Straits cultural influences.
This particular pair is set at a convex plane, so its Art Deco geometry curves very gently against the earlobes.
This effect is very precious, especially if you wear enough antique earrings to know the more than subtle difference.
The diamonds are set open backed, with tiny beads as prongs (so all you see are the diamonds), displaying the tiny but meticulous gold work of old-time Straits Chinese jewellery.
The earrings measure 11mm by 6mm.
With traditional screw back ear posts.
