These earrings will make you want to swing from the chandeliers. They’re full of color and sparkle and so much fun to wear. Pair them with everything from a long boho-styled skirt and bare feet to an elegant cocktail party dress. These earrings will catch the eye of everyone who sees them. Made to look old, these modern reproduction earrings were crafted from a 14-karat yellow gold base that is topped with silver.

The silver itself has oxydized to the most glorious deep dark patina. Resembling chrome illusion paint, shades of purple, blue and even green reflect across the surface of the metal. The darkness of the oxidized silver shows off the diamonds nestled within. Fifty-four round diamonds fill every nook and cranny of these curvaceous beauties. These sparklers offer 1.75 carats of dazzling brilliance.

Dubbed chandelier earrings due to their likeness resembling the popular light fixture, this style features a solid, sturdy top structure with additional sparkling gems dangling from the bottom. Adding a punch of color to these earrings are six briolette cut pink tourmaline gems. The color is like a ripe raspberry – vivid pinkish purple. These six gemstones have a combined weight of approximately 12.00 carats. Articulated at every junction, these earrings dance with every move… they’re spectacular! Add a little magic to your life with these modern beauties… moderately priced at $3,980.00.

Basic black. Often used to represent darkness – it is the complete absorption of light. The symbolic color of authority, it is often worn by judges, magistrates and clergy. For hundreds of years, black has been the characteristic color for funerals and mourning. This was never more apparent than during Victoria’s 40-yearlong bereavement after the death of her soulmate and husband, Albert. Not only did she dawn dark dresses, veils and accessories – she decreed that her subjects must do the same. Even her jewelry reflected the depths of her grief – every piece was made of gold, black enamel and gemstones like onyx like these earrings.

Made from 14-karat yellow gold, the style of these Victorian chandelier earrings is just as relevant today as it was in the late 19th century. A perfectly round bezel set onyx center is wreathed by a series of matching parallelogram-shaped onyx. Each stone is encased within a golden frame. The top edge of the metal features a delicate beaded edge called milgrain. Resembling a starburst or sunflower, this portion of the earring is suspended from softly rounded kidney-shaped wires. A pair of tiny round links have been utilized to attach a small garland to the base of the circular spray. It’s hinged, allowing for ease of movement.

Seven additional lozenge-shaped onyx form the crescent moon-shaped swag. These opaque gems graduate slightly in size, with the largest one in the middle. Small beads of gold are situated between each one, mimicking the design of the top. The final detail is a singular elongated kite-shaped onyx that dangles from the center of the garland. Swaying gently with every turn of your head, these mourning earrings offer face-framing elegance at its finest. User-friendly, these beauties are easy to wear and measure just under two inches from top to bottom. Distinctly Victorian, but perfect for 2023 – these ever-chic earrings are available on our website for just $975.00.

Baubles, Bling and Quiet Things

Defined as big and bold, statement earrings were all the rage in 2021 – these attention grabbing stunners encapsulated everything from large diamond studs to Victorian chandeliers. Perhaps you indulged in a killer pair of gold hoops or daring shoulder-sweeping fringe earrings. These have become your go-to accessory for the days when your confidence is through the roof and also for the days when you need a pick-me-up. They’re audacious and an absolute “must-have” in your jewelry box.

But what about the in-between days? The comfortable, feel-good, normal days… the cozy sweater and leggings kind of days? On an average Wednesday, reach for these quiet beauties.

Made from two shades of 14-karat gold, these earrings are everything you never knew you needed. With articulated moving parts, they swing enchantingly in the ear. The details are soft and subtle… with voluptuous curves and small engraved patterns, they’re lightweight and comfortable in the ear. The overall feel is botanical combining the rosy gold that Victorian jewelry is known for with the brighter, more yellow-y hue of high-karat gold.

The lower portion of the earring is original and authentic from the late 1800’s, although the shepherd’s hook tops are a more modern addition. A tiny c-shaped catch keeps the wire closed, a nice safety feature. Four dainty navette-shapes dangle from the bottom of each one, adding even more movement and charm.

These are earrings that you will find yourself wearing more and more often. They speak softly, adding a touch of loveliness to an otherwise ordinary day. While they may not be considered statement earrings by most, they could easily become YOUR statement earrings… a testament to quiet joy and the happiness of a mundane day. They’re available on our site for just $950.00 – make them yours today.
