Drawing, Design for an Earring, early 19th century (CH 18554765)

Jewelry design for an earring. The ring has two slopes. On the larger, a disk is fastened, intended to be enameled like the drop and the drapery. The disk and the drop are framed by a row of beads. Both are connected by a floral motif and a drapery festoon. The disk above has a palmette at top, a green diamond drop, framed by two laurel branches fastened below by a ring. Chains with beads are hanging from the ends of the drapery to the ends of the branches.
