About the Item

From the Egyptians to the royal jewels of kings and queens, the cabochon emerald is one of the oldest and most coveted gemstones used since ancient times. Famous Egyptian emerald mines known as Cleopatra’s Mines were the world’s primary source of emeralds until significant deposits were discovered in the Americas in the 16th century. Emeralds signify abundance, prosperity, and growth within all aspects of life, especially expressed in nature. These resplendent Diamond Emerald Garland Drop Earrings made by Spectra Fine Jewelry in the contemporary era, circa 2010, capture the beauty of nature’s bounty and feature two glorious drop-shape cabochon emeralds, weighing approximately 31.39 carats total (14.64 & 16.75 carats each). The emeralds are accompanied by report nos. CDC 1803560 A & B dated 28 March 2018 from C. Dunaigre stating that they are natural corundum emeralds of intense green color of Colombia origin with indications of minor clarity enhancement. These sublime drops, designed for pierced ears fitted with posts and French clips, measure a dramatic 2.5 inches long (6.35 cm) with a total weight is 33.46 grams. Crafted in platinum, the symmetrical pair features a row of three flowers each composed of 6 pear-shaped diamond petals which radiate around a central round, alternated with two marquise diamonds. These sparkling strands culminate in a scalloped cupola-shaped setting reminiscent of an acorn hat, crafted in platinum and embellished with graduated round diamonds. The total weight of diamonds is approximately 11.57 carats of F-G colors and VS clarity. The rich garlands of flowers seem to dance, their glistening petals creating showers of scintillation before giving way to the pleasingly rounded organic forms of the emeralds below. Colombia has been arguably the top provider of the world's finest quality and largest quantity of emerald supplies. Emerald is the green to bluish green variety of beryl, a mineral species that also includes aquamarine. The degree of green is derived from a presence and relative amounts of the trace elements, chromium, vanadium, and iron. Colombian emeralds tend to have more trace amounts of chromium, which typically gives them the pure, bright, saturated green that is so prized. To the early Egyptians, green was a sacred color associated with the fertility of the land annually flooded by the Nile. Pharaohs were buried with emeralds, the symbol of eternal life. These enchanting emerald and diamond earrings have a richness of history, color, and artistic form that makes them sparkle with an eternal beauty. Measures approx. 2.5” in length each (6.5 cm); for pierced ears. Diamond weight approx.11.57 carats total, F-G colors, VS clarity. Colombian emerald weight approx. 31.39 carats total and certified by the C. Dunaigre laboratory. Overall weight approx. 33.46 grams, made in platinum. Circa 2010.

Spectra Fine Jewelry Emerald Diamond Romantic Chandelier Earrings
By Spectra Fine Jewelry
Located in New York, NY
The charm of a chandelier earring - long, ornate, and dangling with multiple tiers - is undeniable. Designed to accentuate the length of your neck, chandelier earrings are statement pieces that can be traced back to ancient cultures. The chandelier style, which included both earrings and pendants was first noted during Roman times, then reemerged during the Renaissance in the 1300s, and remained popular until the late Victorian period in the late 1800s. Technically the chandelier or girandole (French, meaning a branched support for candles or other lights) is comprised of three gemstone drops suspended from a single stone or more elaborate motif at the top. With revivals of antique style jewelry in the late 20th and early 21st centuries, many unique adaptations of the chandelier earring emerged. These Spectra Fine Jewelry Emerald...
