Pair of platinum Egyptian Revival drop earrings, the Eye of Horus motif set with calibré rubies, emeralds and sapphires within diamond pavé.
Each earring hangs from a fan shaped top, pierced with the Eye of Horus around a sapphire, above a line of collet set diamonds. Below, a tapering panel of diamond pavé is centred by a stylised figure picked out in red calibré rubies, a band of green emeralds and blue sapphire accents.
The Egyptian Revival took hold after the opening of Tutankhamun's tomb in 1922, and the strong geometry, millegrain edges and calibré coloured stones here follow the Art Deco jewellery it inspired.
