Story
The art of perfection has been hand-painted in miniature within two floral motif oval panels.
Sprays of roses, azure and blush hued flowers and lush greenery overflow from standing ornate wicker baskets with handles. Each sit upon a sward of spring green grass with touches of sienna brown earth.
These 18k yellow gold earrings are designed to hold the enamels in fleur de lis like prongs with braided wire borders. Tiny chains suspend the panels.
Below rests a dangle with an old cut diamond and natural freshwater pearl. Above another pearl adds its luster.
Mother of pearl backs the enamels. Frozen in time, these richly decorated vignettes make for life-life delicacy from the Second Empire period.
