Garnet Heart & Pearl Earrings set in 24KT Gold Vermeil - 24KT Yellow Gold over Sterling Silver. Classical c. 5th Century B.C. Authorized Museum Reproduction Jewelry from the collection of the Lowe Art Museum, University of Miami. These beautiful earrings are handcrafted in the USA.

The inspiration for these earrings dates to 450 B.C., almost the precise year that Greece's greatest architectural achievement, the Parthenon of Athens' Acropolis, was begun. This design is unusual; inlays of stone or glass were not commonly used at this time. The simplified shape reflects the classical idealism of the Age of Pericles.
Our matching Classical 24K Gold Vermeil Garnet Heart and Pearl Necklace, item # 250-0076 will nicely compliment these earrings. These are packaged in an attractive white gift box.
