EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a pair of Renaissance revival ear pendants dating back to the year 1870. Crafted by an unknown artist from the 19th century, these exquisite pieces feature a stunning combination of diamonds and enamel. Measuring at a length of 5 cm, they are now part of a private collection. The design of each pendant is truly remarkable. They depict polychrome enamel blackamoor heads with table-cut diamond ear pendants, one modeled as a turtle. The openwork turban is adorned with table-cut diamonds, while a diamond collet and enamel scroll pendant hang delicately from it. The hoop surmounts are shaped like serpents with intricate diamond detailing. What makes this pair even more intriguing is that although they are near identical, one ear pendant is slightly smaller than the other. This subtle difference adds an element of uniqueness to their overall appeal. These Renaissance revival ear pendants not only showcase exceptional craftsmanship but also reflect the fashion trends and influences prevalent during that era. With their dazzling gemstones and intricate designs, they serve as timeless reminders of the beauty and elegance associated with jewelry from this period. Captured beautifully in this photograph by eChristies Images (out of copyright), these earrings radiate sophistication and charm through every detail captured by Bridgeman Images for Fine Art Finder.
