Description:
Early 19th century Georgian openwork earrings with black enamel and

6 rose cut diamonds. Hinged back ear wire that fastened into a
loop
from the back of the ear lobe to the front of the earring. In
excellent
antique condition.

Most likely it is the top of
a Day and
Night earrings. (bottoms must have been lost)


They are
called "Day and Night" earrings, because the tops
can be removed
and worn on their own during the day, and the
bottoms added at
night to make more dramatic and more dressy
look for evening wear.
