Edwardian 15ct Gold, Opal & Ruby Drop Earrings

447Y
Written by Olly Gerrish

A pretty pair of 15ct gold drop earrings that were made circa 1910-1920. They have been claw set with opals and rubies. This was a popular combination at that time as the rubies tended to emphasise and compliment the red in the opals. The opals have differentiation in colour which is kind of fun as one is a blue/ red and the other is a green /red.
