An elegant pair of late Victorian old cut diamond solitaire earrings.
 
This timeless design has two old cut diamonds each in a silver 'cut-down' setting onto yellow gold post and butterfly fittings.
 
The earrings sit low to the ear and are perfect for everyday wear. We believe the earrings would have originally had small hooks to loop through the ear but have been converted to sit safely flat against the ear at a later date.
