The Celtic knot drop earring is one of the most consistent forms in Scotland's silver jewellery tradition, the vertical drop format providing a natural field for elongated knotwork compositions that move and catch the light with wear. The combination of open interlaced silverwork with a stone at the base reflects a long-established approach in Celtic jewellery, where the geometric discipline of the knotwork provides a structured upper element and the stone anchors the composition with weight and brilliance. The use of a clear cubic zirconia gives the piece a clean, uncoloured brightness that allows the silverwork itself to remain the primary focus.
Each earring is composed of two distinct sections suspended from a fish hook fitting. The upper section presents an open Celtic knotwork panel, its interlaced strands forming a compact, symmetrical composition of looping and crossing forms with well-defined negative spaces between them. The strands are rounded in section and finished to a high mirror polish. Below, two outward-curving arms extend from the base of the knotwork to frame a round cubic zirconia set in a smooth bezel, its clear faceted surface providing a bright, light-catching focal point at the base of the drop. The silver throughout carries a high mirror polish. Fish hook fitting above.
Approximately 2.8g per pair. 925 sterling silver with round cubic zirconia in bezel setting. Fish hook fitting.
