Discover the enduring elegance of these Victorian-era earrings, beautifully crafted from gutta percha. Each piece showcases a finely detailed, three-tiered design, expertly carved to highlight its rich black hue, while delicate tassels add graceful movement below.
Remarkably lightweight and comfortable, these earrings offer the perfect balance of antique charm and everyday wearability. Gutta percha—an organic material derived from tropical Sapotaceae Palaquium trees—was widely used in the mid-19th century, particularly in mourning jewelry, prized for its deep, lustrous tone.
Ideal for collectors and admirers of vintage and historical jewelry, these earrings remain as captivating today as they were over a century ago.
