Enlarge photo 5 Huge 19th Century French Paste Earrings
At 3 1/4 inches long, these are my biggest pair of Georgian paste earrings. The backs show silver work typical of this period. C. 1800. From the estate of Dorthy Draper -(November 22, 1889 – March 11, 1969). She was an American interior decorator and socialite. A pair of identical earrings were for sale at a prominent French Jeweller stating these are french earrings.
