A beautiful and decorative ring and earring set attributed to the renowned British jeweller, Sibyl Dunlop. Sibyl Dunlop was dedicated to the gorgeous style and ethos of the preceeding Arts and Crafts movement. Her jewellery was marked by the bold use of colour through gemstones, often creating designs described as carpets of gems. Dunlop’s richly coloured work is distinctive and celebrated.

Flanked by acanthus style leaf shoulders and a plain shank. The earrings are claw set with synthetic sapphires, each measuring 12 mm x 10 mm. With screw back fittings.
