Austro-Hungarian Earrings Turquoise Pearls

Jewelry : Antique : Fine : Earrings

 

These are Renaissance pendant earrings. Marked with H.B. for maker. I have looked more carefully and am sure now that the screwtops were added late and these must have originally been for pierced ears. Also, the enamel detail depicts dragonflies on one earring and a type of lotus flower on the other earring. Wonderful silver Austro-Hungarian earrings are screwbacks set with turquoise and mother of pearl. Enamelled on the back.
