Condition:
These Antique Diamond and Pearl Dormeuse Earrings are in wonderful condition, showcasing the exquisite beauty of their age and craftsmanship. The rose cut diamonds, while not as brilliant as some modern cuts, possess a unique charm all their own. Their soft, subtle shimmer offers a delicate and romantic glow, capturing light in a gentle, vintage manner that modern stones often lack. This characteristic is one of the reasons why rose cut diamonds are so cherished—they possess an understated elegance that reflects the refined taste of their era.
There are no major issues with the earrings, and they are structurally sound. The 18K gold setting is in excellent condition, and the pearls retain their lustrous sheen. Given their age, there may be slight signs of wear consistent with antique pieces, but these only add to their story and authenticity, enhancing their timeless appeal.
These earrings radiate quiet sophistication, offering a glimpse into a time of understated luxury and timeless beauty. They are truly a delicate treasure, perfect for someone who appreciates the subtle, refined elegance of antique jewelry.
All of the jewelry listed here is antique and pre-owned, meaning it may show signs of wear, which is a testament to its rich history and the stories it carries. Far from being “perfect” or “brand new,” this is what makes antique pieces so special – they’ve been loved, cherished, and worn over time. I believe that these imperfections only add to their character and charm, and they’re ready for their next chapter with you.
As with all antique jewelry, the stones may show subtle signs of wear, like surface abrasions or a natural patina, which only add to their unique character. Antique cuts and settings can differ from modern styles, contributing to their charm and individuality. Any significant imperfections or repairs will be clearly noted in the listings. Thank you for appreciating the beauty of their uniqueness!
