Gorgeous Pair Retro 14k Gold & Sapphire Floral Spray Clipback Earrings
Regular price
$864.00
Presented is a gorgeous pair of retro 14 karat yellow gold and sapphire earrings. These earrings dates to around the 1950s-1960s, and were made in America. The earrings are done in a lovely floral spray type design, very securely prong set with 4 oval cabochon sapphires apiece. The sapphires are real, mined-from-the-ground stones, verified by our gemologist, with a very striking rich deep blue color. The sapphires vary in size a little, averaging about 34 points apiece, or about a third of a carat each, for a total sapphire weight of about two and two thirds of a carat (~2.66 points). The earrings have clip style backs, suitable for wear with unpierced or pierced ears, though a jeweler could easily convert these for wear with pierced ears by adding posts.
This pair is in great condition. The clip backs have a good strong spring mechanism. The sapphires are all securely set, with no chips. There are no breaks and no repairs.
The earrings are stamped and guaranteed 14 karat gold.
Each earring is about 1 1/8 of an inch long.
The total weight for the pair is 9 grams.
