Rose Earrings (Large)

Subtotal: £104.00

These earrings are based on the Rosa centifolia- This rose is a complex hybrid developed by Dutch breeders sometime before the 19th century. It is particularly used in the perfume trade, as it especially valued for its singular fragrance which is sweet and clean, with high notes of honey. This rose is inspired by artwork by Pierre-Joseph Redouté (1759-1840). The floral works of Redouté have a great reputation for their beauty and accuracy. He began his career as a scene painter in Paris but his real love was flower painting. He was found painting in the Jardin du Roi by the wealthy botanist Charles Louis L’Hértier de Brutelle who became his patron. Redouté was introduced to the royal household and was appointed Draughtsman to the Cabinet of Marie-Antoinette. After the revolution Joséphine Bonaparte became his generous patron. She spent untold sums on the publications recording her rare and exotic plants which contributed directly to Redouté’s most magnificent volumes Les Liliacées (1802-16) and Les Roses (1817-24).

Jewellery Care

We wish for you to enjoy your jewellery for as long as possible, and therefore recommend you read the following care instructions.

Please do not expose the jewellery to harsh chemicals, extreme temperatures or sunlight for a prolonged period.

Please make sure to apply cosmetics, perfume and hairspray prior to putting on the jewellery to avoid possible blemishing and discolouration.

Do remove the jewellery when performing any activity which may cause damage to the product, e.g. exercising, showering or performing household tasks.

Store each piece of jewellery separately as constant brushing together can damage the finish.

Acid in your skin and fragrances can attack the plated finish and so from time to time you should gently wash the items in your hands with warm soapy water.

Do not use brushes or cloths. Rinse in warm water and dry carefully.

Avoid using Ultrasonic jewellery cleaner which can dislodge the stones.
