Cut Steel Earrings, Victorian

This is one of the nicest pair of cut steel earrings I have seen. They actually belonged in the personal collection of a deal English dealer friend of mine who has , unfortunately, fallen on hard times. She sold them to another dealer from whom I buy, and I bought them on my last trip. They are circa 1880, and weigh 16.68 grams together.They measure 2 and 1/4 inches long, and 3/4 inches wide at the widest part. They are circa 1880 and in excellent condition.
