Beautiful matching Victorian gold filled black onyx style and seed pearl set, comprising a brooch and pair of drop earrings. Each piece features an oval black glass cabochon with an applied gold leaf motif centered with a tiny seed pearl, framed by delicate scrollwork in warm gold tone metal. Classic late 19th century mourning / evening jewelry style.
Brooch approx. 1.5” x 1.25”
Earrings approx. 2.25” long x 0.5” wide
Gold filled mounts with black glass cabochons and tiny seed pearls
Period ear wires; brooch fitted with a later replacement clasp with safety
Victorian era, c.1880–1900
Condition: light surface wear and small age-appropriate marks to the glass and metal under magnification; seed pearls intact. Brooch clasp is a newer replacement but secure and very wearable. Overall the set presents beautifully with that inky-black Victorian glamour.
A scarce matching Victorian set that looks stunning worn together or split up—perfect with a little black dress, mourning-inspired looks, or to display in an antique jewel box. (Box shown in photos is a prop and not included, unless otherwise noted.)
