Exceptionally fine and rare pair of pendant earrings in black Berlin iron, set with neoclassical cameos on polished steel plates, creating a mirror back effect, and surrounded with a gold wire frame. The earring clasps feature cherub heads with gold ear hoop. Antique German Neo-Classical style and Regency period, from the 1810s.
Because of the style of Berlin iron with the combination of polished steel and gold, and because of the exceptional quality of the detailing, these earrings are attributed to Johann Conrad Geiss (1771-1846), one of the major Berlin iron jewellery makers.
