A beautiful pair of diamond daisy earrings, made by taking the matching pair of daisies from an antique brooch and adding new 9ct gold hooks. The old cut diamonds are set in silver and the whole daisy backed with 9ct gold. 
 
The diamonds have character showing fine inclusions and a slight hint of warmth. One of the centre diamonds has a small surface reaching inclusion, but otherwise the condition is excellent. A very pretty pair of drop earrings!
