To fund the Prussian effort to repel the forces of Napoleon, citizens were urged to donate their gold to the state and were given a piece of lacquered iron jewelry in return. The drive for gold was quite successful, so much so that not only were the Prussian war chests filled, but also the wearing of gold jewelry became a social faux pas - unseemly and unpatriotic. As a result, Berlin iron jewelry became very fashionable and high street jewelers began to retail the distinctive black jewelry to satisfy demand for the style.

The owner could wear the simple hoops alone during the daytime and add the long, dramatic drops for evening events. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMATERIALS: 14k gold (tests), agate\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAGE: c. 1870\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCONDITION: Very good\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSIZE: 1 3\/4\" length measured from the top of the ear wire, 5\/8\" tops, 1 1\/4\" pendants (including the bale)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiques","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52304792584474,"sku":"E843","price":3200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0156\/5502\/files\/E843-1.jpg?v=1780444744"},{"product_id":"victorian-coral-diamond-cluster-earrings","title":"Victorian Coral \u0026 Diamond Cluster Earrings","description":"\u003cp\u003eTangerine Dream!  Vibrant coral cabochons are surrounded with an octet of rose cut diamonds.
