These delightful star-shaped earrings are each centered by a cream-coloured baroque pearl. The five rays of each star are studded with rose-cut diamonds in closed settings. A faint line of black enamel is still visibile around the outline of each star, a feature that is so often seen in Victorian earrings, and which adds an extra element of depth to their design.
