Antique French Turquoise Enamel and 18K Gold Forget Me Not Flower Earrings

About the Item

A pair of 18 karat yellow gold and turquoise enamel forget-me-nots drop earrings. Adorn yourself with these amiable antique turquoise enamel and gold flower earrings. Crafted from 18 karat yellow gold and hallmarked with the French "Tête d'Aigle," these earrings are a token to fine craftsmanship and timeless style. Created in the shape of forget-me-nots, they exude a delicate and romantic charm. For the Victorians, forget-me-nots were a symbol of remembrance for those who have died, but more often as a symbol of true love and devotion. It was used much less often for commemoration and more for people to declare their love. Though the enamel may bear slight signs of age, it adds to the antique allure of these earrings, hinting at the stories they hold. Perfect for adding a touch of antique sophistication to any ensemble, these earrings are sure to capture attention and admiration wherever they go. The earrings are approx. 2.0 centimeters in length and weighs 1.28 grams. Please view the photo for the exact size of these earrings. The ear hooks go from the back to the front through the ear where you hook them into the eye at the front.
