Antique French 18k GIA certified 1.10 Ctw Old European Diamond Dormeuse Earrings
Find us on Instagram Vanessaatheritagejewelry. To get sneak peeks of our newest items and early bird specials prior to listing follow us on Instagram at Vanessaatheritagejewelry! These bright and sparkling, genuine antique, hand cut diamonds have been polished to remove chips, GIA certified and inscribed, and reset into 18k yellow gold French Victorian dormeuse drop earrings. Check back soon for video.
The word dormeuse translates to "sleeper" for earrings so comfortable they could be worn sleeping. These antique diamonds throw big sparkle and are perfect to wear every day or for any special occasion. They are exceedingly comfortable on the ear, so light weight that you may forget they are on but no one else will!
As common of the era the antique settings are put in back to front. A rare treasure sure to be cherished by their new owner. The cut is listed by GIA as Circular Brilliant but I would describe them as the more commonly used term of Old European Cut as they are round with a visible open culet. Heritage Jewelry is based in Oklahoma - the photos are of the actual.
