18K Gold, 1.07 ctw Rose-Cut Diamond 'Daisy' Earrings, 19th/20th century

London, late 19th century. Rainy mornings lit by candlelight, dresses with velvet corsets and embroidered gloves delicately touching the jewelry. In a world where feelings were hidden under layers of etiquette, it was jewelry that spoke the most – and flowers, encased in gold and diamonds, carried hidden messages.

These Victorian “daisy” earrings, made of 750 gold, are an echo of those times, when every piece of jewelry had meaning. In the era of Queen Victoria, the daisy symbolized purity, innocence and loyalty, a delicate expression of feelings that could not always be expressed. Rose-cut diamonds with a total weight of 1.07 ct, set in the form of a floral wreath, scatter the light subtly – as if their glow came from another time, from an era when every gem was a part of history.

Jewelry inspired by flowers was not only fashion, but also a secret code – a secret language of love and longing. These earrings could have been a gift from a lover, a promise of remembrance, or a symbol of subtle elegance. Their delicate yet expressive form makes them timeless – like the daisy itself, which has been associated for centuries with the beauty of simplicity and the power of nature.

Wearing them today, you can almost hear the whispers of bygone eras – stories of glances exchanged in ballrooms, letters written in ink, and flowers that spoke louder than words.
