These stunning, fine and impressive vintage emerald and diamond earrings have been crafted in platinum and palladium.
The pierced decorated interlacing lobed earrings are each ornamented with a feature oval cabochon cut Russian emerald, claw set in subtle relief to the centre of the design, totalling 3cts.
The emeralds are each encompassed by twelve eight cut diamonds, creating a scalloped cluster border.
Each earring is further embellished with ten individually claw set diamonds, in a combination of transitional modern brilliant round, Old European and marquise cuts; five stones emanate from a linear pale in a splayed arrangement to one side.
The wireworked lobed portion of the settings are each terminated with a rope twist decorated arch design, enhancing the naturalistic motif of the earrings and completing the design.
These fine emerald earrings, for pierced ears, secure to the reverse with a post and hinged latch fastening.
The earrings have been independently tested using state of the art technology (Niton XL2 Analyzer) and verified as 50% platinum and 50% palladium.
These impressive antique cluster earrings are supplied with an IDGL diamond and gemstone grading report card, in addition to an emerald report card and certificate supplied by the Gemmological Certification Services, London*.
These fine vintage emerald earrings with diamonds make an exceptional gift for celebrating love, new beginnings and life's most memorable milestones. Emerald is the May birthstone and has long been given for the 20th and 35th wedding anniversaries. This makes vintage emerald and diamond earrings particularly meaningful for May birthdays, milestone anniversaries, weddings, Mother's Day or significant personal achievements.
