The guillotine is best known for its use during the French Revolution, where the revolution's supporters celebrated it as the people's avenger.
These earrings are inspired by a 19th-century pair of earrings based on caricatures from that time.
The heads of of Louis 16th and Marie Antoinette are suspended under the blade of the guillotine, which itself is attached to a Phrygian cap, a symbol of liberty.
