Antique Victorian Banded Agate Earrings

About the Item

Striking in contrasting color and in their geometric form, the teardrop banded agate earrings originated in England c.1860. When well made, the stone cutter choses parts of the agate that he can shape so that the white band is in the same place in both earrings. He cuts and polishes the stones by hand. These earrings are tactile and striking. They have gold links and ear wires. Perfect Original Condition
