Antique Dutch gold earrings

Earrings

Description

Nineteenth-century earrings, so-called “stone bells” (three-piece earrings with a stone incorporated in the top and bottom parts) or “square bells” as worn in the Land of Cadzand (Zeeland). Made in 14 carat gold with a square filigree top set with a square faceted garnet, the triangular filigree centerpiece with two horns of plenty. Below a rectangular base set with a square faceted garnet. At the bottom four moving leaf-shaped pampels. Master's mark of J. Strijbis, Roosendaal (1822-1845).

 

Gold, silver and gilded regional jewelry was widely worn in the Netherlands in the 18th and 19th centuries. These earrings are not worn in the ear but on the lace hat - they are hooked into a loop on the inside and they hang along the cheeks in the front strip of the hat. Earrings have been attached to these "hat bells".

 

Netherlands, circa 1840

Love the owner. Very strong and wise lady. Family owned shop, and she has been working there 55 years. She seems cold at the beginning but she’s really patient and friendly, allow you to try everything but never push you to make a decision. We discussed how to change the size of my ring, she had really strong and professional opinion, just listen to her , you are in good hand. Very very nice collections and you can trust their experiences.

I visited the shop June 2022. I ended up buying a lovely 1970s emerald ring. She was able to resize it that day! If I visit Amsterdam again, I will definitely stop by this store.

Perfect view of a beautiful piece of antique and always willing to provide an explanation. Never the compulsion to buy, customer friendliness and knowledge at its best! By the way, I'm not related.
