Victorian Pique stud earrings
Victorian pique earrings were all the rage in the 19th century thanks to their unique and intricate design. These earrings typically feature a domed, faux tortoiseshell with tiny pieces of gold and silver inlaid to create a scalloped design. The scalloped design adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to the earrings, making them the perfect accessory for any occasion.
The term "Pique" is derived from the French word "piquer," which means "to prick." This is because the inlaid materials are pricked (pinned) into the material, creating a beautiful, textured effect.
The old fittings have been replaced with 9ct gold post & scroll fittings.
