All auctions / Jewellery & Gems / Large Vintage Earrings With Emeralds & Diamonds, Italy ca. 2000
The earrings here are unusually rich and magnificent with their setting of large emeralds and sparkling diamonds. A total of four large, natural drop-shaped emeralds are framed by around 8.16 ct of brilliant and navette cut diamonds. The large gemstones are of very good quality throughout: they live in the light and complement each other to create a fresh and enchanting impression. In fact, each combination of different gemstones creates its own unique effect. The fascinating green of emeralds, for example, combines particularly well with the bright brilliance of diamonds. Already about 220 years ago the German ladies' journal "Der Bazar" knew this. Here we find the note in 1894: "Emeralds are particularly beautiful with diamonds, provided that the stones are beautiful in colour and cut: This combination has an immensely fresh and graceful effect". Each of the earrings consists of three parts, an upper and a lower part in the shape of a teardrop, as well as a movable connecting piece that gives the earrings a beautiful pendulum-like movement. The gemstones are set in high-carat white gold, which gives the brilliance of the diamonds and emeralds every opportunity to unfold unadulterated. According to their hallmarks, the earrings were created in Italy, probably in the years around the turn of the millennium. Later they were imported to France, which is also documented by the corresponding hallmarks on the ear pins. We have now brought them from Paris to Berlin. An independent certificate has confirmed the excellent quality of the materials, it comes with the earrings.
