Lincoln Presidential China Inspired Gold with Genuine Pearl Earrings

Stand out with these stunning, genuine 5-pearl earrings. Beautifully crafted on a gold plated brass ear wire, these genuine white pearls playfully dance off the ear making them a beautiful choice for a timeless look.

These earrings are a part of our jewelry collection inspired by President and Mrs. Abraham Lincoln's White House china service. The porcelain dinner, breakfast, dessert, and tea service was purchased for the White House by First Lady Mary Todd Lincoln during an 1861 shopping trip to the E. V. Haughwout & Co. department store in New York City. The itemized bill included with Mrs. Lincoln’s new china includes the following description of her purchase, “One fine Porcelain Dining Service . . . decorated Royal purple, and double gilt, with the Arms of the United States, on each piece.” The beautiful state service, which originally included 190 pieces, was reordered during the presidencies of Ulysses S. Grant and Chester A. Arthur and examples are kept on display in the White House China Room today.
