Vintage Elizabeth Locke Quatrefoil 18K Gold and Diamond Earrings

Elizabeth Locke is known for Neo-classical 18k gold handmade jewelry featuring hand-hammered textures and Old World sensibilities. These 18k gold earrings are pretty quatrefoil outlines around a dome element topped with a central diamond. The earrings, which are hand hammered throughout, are even hammered on the bezel that surrounds the diamond, which gives the setting beautiful facets when looked at closely. The 18k gold is rich in color. The earrings have Elizabeth Locke’s signature classical design elements and harken back to Etruscan Revival jewelry.

Each earring contains a natural 3 mm diamond, J-H in color and VS2 in clarity. Combined, they have a TCW of 1/8 of a carat.

The earrings measure 15/16” across. They have a depth of 3/8”, not including the backs. Combined, they weigh 14.16 grams. Marked on the back as 18k and with Elizabeth Locke’s hallmark.

The earrings have posts that can be raised and lowered, along with a clip on back, allowing you to choose whether to wear them as clip ons or with pierced ears. The earrings give a sophisticated, classic Jackie O. look.
