Estate 22K Yellow Gold Filigree Drop Earrings

Crafted in 22K yellow gold, these vintage dangle earrings feature ornate filigree detailing in a symmetrical teardrop design. Decorative beadwork frames the outer edges, while the inner lattice is accented with granulation motifs. Each earring measures approximately 2 1/8 inches long and 3/4 inch wide, suspended from shepard's hook backings. Rich in texture and unmistakably detailed, these earrings offer the kind of character that invites a second look. Their warmth and intricacy pair beautifully with flowing fabrics, rich jewel tones, or even crisp modern silhouettes—adding a layer of depth and story to the simplest ensemble.

What Is Filigree Jewelry?

Filigree is a delicate metalworking technique that uses twisted threads of precious metal to create intricate lace-like patterns. Popular across many cultures and time periods, filigree has long symbolized craftsmanship and fine detail. When rendered in high-karat gold, the effect is both luxurious and timeless.
