Hand Engraved Leaf Feather Diamond Earrings - Old European Cut Diamonds .90 ctw
About the Item
Once part of an elegant 1920's Art Deco period brooch, these stylish earrings combine fiery European cut diamonds with a vertical drop of hand engraved leaves or feathers. Worn like studs, they have threaded posts for extra security.
Crafted of 14K white gold, each earring features a bezel-set diamond at the top, measuring approximately 4.8 mm in diameter and estimated to weigh approximately .45 a piece for a total estimated carat weight of .90 for the pair.
Both diamonds are bright, lively and very fiery, with good color in the near-colorless range. I don't see any inclusions with my naked eye, though a few are visible to me with magnification. Both diamonds are in good condition with no damage. Much of the original milgrain detail edging the bezels remain.
Each leaf or feather was hand engraved, with details still nice and crisp; I find their slightly rustic look very pleasing.
With a total length of just over 1 inch or approximately 25.6 mm, the pair weigh 3.55 grams on my scale. (nice and comfy even if your ears are sensitive to weight)
We placed the 14K white gold threaded posts below the diamond's settings, so it's approximately 3/4 of an inch from the posts to the tips of the leaves/feathers.
I think they turned out beautifully - elegant but also a little edgy. They could be worn equally well with a t-shirt and jeans or with a gown.

- Heavy French 18K Gold Step Cut Diamond Ring with Hand Engraving, 1.73 ctwLocated in Danvers, MAOffered is a vintage, heavy 18K gold French ring with a large, sparkly square step cut diamond center, and old European cut diamond shoulders. Elegant hand engraving adorns each side of the ring, with the center stone set off by platinum. The estimated total carat weight is approximately 1.73 carats; French hallmarks remain on the outside of the band. This is a striking and substantial ring that I think works equally well on a woman or a man. It's strong, geometric setting makes it eye-catching without being fussy. Measuring approximately 6.8 x 6.5 mm the prong-set step cut diamond center stone is estimated to be approximately 1.25 (perhaps as much as 1.35 carats), though its setting makes it appear even larger. With near-colorless color judged to be in the H-I-J range, the diamond is bright and faces up quite white. It does have inclusions, including dark carbon, though most inclusions are visible with magnification. I can see a few with my naked eye, but they aren't distracting to me, and aren't easy to see when the ring is on the hand. There is a little wear to the girdle of the stone seen with magnification - some tiny nibbles along the outer edge. I'm very picky about diamonds, but I love this ring even with the imperfect stone. It would also be possible to replace the center with another diamond or a beautiful colored gem, if desired. Each shoulder has three sparkling graduated old European cut diamonds, for another estimated .48 carats, or so. Chunky and very fiery with open culets, these diamonds are also in the near-colorless range and are clean to the naked eye. Under magnification I see a few small imperfections in some stones. With a major presence on the finger, the face measures approximately 18 x 9.91 mm, including the upper shoulders. The rise off the finger is approximatley 5.62 mm to the table of the central diamond. The shoulders taper gradually from approximately 9.6 mm down...Category
