Pair of Art-Deco Onyx and Diamond Drop Earrings

A pair of Art-Deco onyx and diamond drop earrings, each earring with a pear-shaped onyx with a rose-cut diamond set cap, suspended by a rose-cut diamond-set bar terminating to two single rose-cut diamond-set collets, to a fan-shaped top with a triangular-shaped onyx set between four rose-cut diamonds, the diamonds estimated to weigh 0.6 carats in total, all millegrain-set in platinum, circa 1920, with post and alpha-style fittings, measuring approximately 4.9 x 0.8cm long, gross weight 7.5 grams. This pair of earrings are in excellent condition. Unmarked, tested as platinum. This glamourous pair of earrings comes from the collection of Bentley & Skinner, the London jewellers by appointment to both Her Majesty the Queen and His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales. Made at the height of the Jazz Age, these chic earrings are a perfect monochromatic statement. With these earrings, simple black and white is anything but boring: when combined with the Art Deco geometric forms and glittering diamonds, these earrings become the perfect representation of 1920s elegance. Should you choose to make this purchase we would be delighted to send it to you in a Bentley & Skinner handmade leather case packed in a gift-wrapped Bentley & Skinner black and gold presentation box. Shortly afterwards we will send you on a valuation for insurance purposes for your reference and safekeeping.
