Antique Victorian Yellow Gold Ruby Old Diamond Navette Dangle Drop Earrings

There is something wonderfully romantic about these antique Victorian ruby and old mine cut diamond earrings - beautifully imperfect, full of history and completely one of a kind. At their centre sit two old-cut natural rubies in deep, rich red, surrounded by a sparkling cluster of 26 old mine cut diamonds. The elongated navette shape is beautifully flattering, suspended beneath an additional old mine cut diamond so they move gently and catch the light as they are worn. Together the rubies and diamonds total approximately 1.79ctw, with the warmth of the antique yellow gold providing the perfect contrast to those rich ruby tones and softly sparkling old diamonds. A very special pair of genuine antique earrings - romantic, beautifully detailed and made to be worn rather than tucked away.
