Edwardian Diamond Drop Earrings in 18ct Yellow Gold (Later Rhodium-Plated)

 

These exquisite antique earrings are a refined example of early 20th-century craftsmanship. Originally made in 18ct yellow gold, they were later rhodium-plated by a previous owner, which gives them their bright white appearance today. The yellow gold underneath is no longer visible due to this later rhodium finish.
(Rhodium-plating is a thin coating that enhances brightness, whiteness, and durability.)

Designed in a delicate Edwardian floral cluster style, they shimmer with an impressive array of old-cut diamonds. With a combined diamond weight of 2.06 ct in H VS–SI quality, these earrings offer exceptional fire and sparkle—perfect for collectors and lovers of genuine antique jewellery.
