ESTATE FRESH 14K Gold, Sapphire & Diamond Etruscan Pierced Earrings!

Jewelry : Vintage : Earrings : 14k Gold : Cab Sapphire : Diamond : Etruscan : Omega Back : Pierced

 

With a decidedly Etruscan look to them, these Estate Fresh pierced Earrings each feature a sapphire cab (genuine) and TWO 3 point round faceted diamonds (tested). The oval sapphires each measure 3.5 x 5.5mm and I'd say that they are about 1/2 carat each; one is absolutely perfect while the other has an internal fracture at the very bottom - not visible with the naked eye and can be seen only with a 10X loupe. Total gemstone guesstimweight would be about 1 CT TW plus for both the sapphires and diamonds.

The earrings are hallmarked 14K along with a maker's mark I don't recognize and as you can see they are comfortable Omega Back earrings for pierced ears.

From top of the earring to bottom measures 15/16"; width is 1/2" and combined weight is a hefty 10.8 grams. These are not "cheapie" earrings but well made, substantial and today - costing around $1200 or more in a jewelry store. (Check the Internet if you don't believe me!)

Due to the small blemish in the sapphire, I have priced these beauties accordingly however the value lies more in the gold and the execution. Even as they are now, you can wear them and you will NOT be disappointed! They'd look great with blue jeans or the best designer evening gown.
