Edwardian 15ct Gold, Diamond & Peridot Drop Earrings

A lovely pair of 15ct gold earrings set with a peridot with three articulated diamonds above each one. Peridot is named after the French word “peritot”, meaning gold, because the mineral can vary towards this colour. Peridot is the birthstone for the month of August. It is also the stone given to celebrate the 16th year of marriage. They were made circa 1900-1915 when peridots were in fashion. They are as wearable today as they were then.
