Large Antique Amethyst Paste Earrings
Large and lovely, these antique English amethyst paste earrings are circa 1850. They are faceted pastes,foiled back and set in silver rub over collets. Originally silver cuff buttons, they have been beautifully transformed into earrings with the addition of 14k yellow gold ear wires. They are quite dramatic with bulbous backs measuring 1/2 inches or 1.25 cm in diameter. They are 7/8 inches from the top of the wire.

They are in excellent condition. There are tiny, almost imperceptible dings on the reverse. Lovely and distinctive, England, circa 1850
