These Beautiful Earrings are in the shape of a heraldic shield and carved from Natural Whitby Jet. Dating from c. 1880, they have been carved with craftsmanship and skill. The clever carving is made to appear like the folds in material, which gives a subtle texture and depth to the Earrings. Very Unusual. They hang 1 ¼ inches from the top of the Gold ear wire by 17mm across at the widest. In Excellent Condition.Old Code 4145.
