An eye-catching pair of stunning late 18th Iberian rose cut diamond foiled earrings. Also known as “Iberian Peninsula” earrings, this pair is a prestigious museum example with a wonderful floral elements. The eye cannot help but noting the blooming "tulip" at the bottom of the shape, and the central "forget-me-not" at the center. I've never seen a more immaculate pair, these are just the dessert of earrings from this period.
