#86120 & 86121 Antique Blackamoor 18K Yellow Gold Brooch and Earrings covered in Sapphires circa 1890
This amazing original set of Antique Blackamoor 18K Yellow Gold Brooch & Earrings are circa 1890. They are the best of the best! The faces on the Brooch and Earrings are made out of Chalcedony or Onyx. This is instead of enamel over metal, or wood that deteriorates. They are very difficult to carve and this is why Blackamoors such as Nardi and others went to wood or enamel over metal.
These earrings were carved by a master carver over 100 years ago. To find a matching set of any Blackamoors is rare, but to find original Onyx carved set is even rarer. As a matter of fact, I have never seen another set like this. The Diamonds are old European cut VS clarity and G for color and the Sapphires are a deep blue. Carved and detailed in 18K Yellow Gold body with a double clip back for the brooch and European pierced back for the earrings.
This comes with a Certificate of Appraisal for $22,166.00
