Condition

VERY GOOD-EXCELLENT. These  Georgian Black Dot Paste button earrings are in lovely condition, especially when considering their grand age! The Paste gems are bright and securely set within their piecrust settings, with their hand-painted black dots still visible. The Silver is bright with a light patina having accrued around the crimped settings creating a lovely contrast against the scintillating Paste. There are some light dings on the domed back settings, commensurate with age, which aren't noticeable during wear. The slender 9ct Gold hooks are securely soldered and are generous in size allowing for comfortable and secure wear!
