Victorian Silver & Niello Large Studs of Erotic Ladies

28D
Written by Olly Gerrish

An unusual pair of Victorian studs which depict two slightly risque women in niello. Niello is a black mixture of copper, silver, and lead sulphides, used as an inlay on engraved or etched metal. They are probably German or French in origin and may have been used to fasten a cloak as they are large.
