Object Description
A finely crafted pair of Roman gold hoop earrings adorned with pearls and granulation. The earrings are penannular in shape and terminate with a small loop at each end. Each earring is decorated with two natural pearls alternating with gold granulated spacer beads. The composition is secured on each hoop with a delicate gold wire wrapped on either end. Both the earrings have a beautiful two-tiered baroque pearl at the centre with the bottom pearl pierced. The pearls themselves are luminous and slightly irregular in shape reflecting their natural quality.
