Victorian period
A stunning pair of Victorian gold fly earrings.
The Rock Crystal domes have gorgeously chased 15ct gold flies perched on top!
The flies have so much detail, with chased patterns on the wings and body. The modelling is very realistic!
The large Rock Crystal domes hang from a 15ct chunky bar with lovely wire work. And gold sphere work.
Earrings are set with 18ct gold shepherds hooks.
Circa 1860/70; The Victorians went mad for all things fly and bug related at this time!
A super rare and cool find.
