Ornate gold, pearl and emerald earring. 5.5 grams; about 2" x 3/4". Very impressive little jewel, with superb-quality cabochon emerald inside a lustrous gold flower (with shepherd's-crook pin in back to put in the ear), from which is suspended an ornate open teardrop of gold with six tiny pearls dangling from three tiny loops, the open teardrop with prongs to hold a huge gem that we wish was still there! With Fisher photo-certificate #02A-51822. Recovered from: Atocha, sunk in 1622 west of Key West, Florida
