(Please excuse the rather loud audiobook playing in the video's background - the snoring noise is coming from that and not our office, I swear...!)

 

What a whimsical pair of earrings, with two antique 1800s carved coral horse's heads, probably Italian in origin - the horses necks are outstretched with their ears back, as though pelting along at a gallop! Their heads are very sweetly detailed, down to the characteristically realistic shaping under the jaw. Very unusual. The coral is a lovely pinkish, salmon shade. Solid 9K gold top caps and ear wires (tested). They hang very nicely!

MEASUREMENTS: Drops approx 2cm, total drop from bend in ear wire to bottom approx 3.7cm. Around 3g in weight together (to the nearest gram, our milligram scales are not working today!).

CONDITION: Lovely, wearable antique condition - please view all close-up photos. On close inspection the coral necks appear to have holes drilled through at the very top, mostly hidden by the gold caps. Any display boxes/forms shown are for photography purposes only.
