DATE: Victorian, c.1870

Wonderful antique orb earrings fully pavé set with turquoise cabochons. The date from the mid Victorian period, circa 1870, and remain in fantastic condition. They're a good size at 1.5cm in diameter, and are light enough for comfortable wear.

The term pavé refers to the way that the stones are set, literally paved (in French), reminiscent of cobble stones.
