Victorian Black Coral Drop Earrings

Victorian Black Coral Drop Earrings

A pair of polished black coral drop earrings.

Black coral was perceived as a stone imbued with power to ward off evil spirits and diseases. Since black coral pieces have powerful symbolic attributes associated with protective meaning ('against suffering'), it was often worn on the body to protect one’s safety. This earring set provides a very simple and elegant accent. The ear wires are in 14k gold.

Total Drop: Approximately 25mm (including the front wire)

In Very Good Condition.
