Pair of turquoise and diamond earclips, David Webb

The domed floral motifs set with oval and round turquoise cabochons bordered by 58 round diamonds weighing approximately 4.70 carats, mounted in 18 karat gold and platinum, signed Webb.  

Good condition with gentle signs of wear to the mountings. The turquoise cabochons are medium-light blue (a couple shades softer and a truer turquoise color than indicated by catalogue illustration) and generally well-matched. Minor evidence of black matrix to several cabochons but not readily apparent. The diamonds are approximately G-H color, VS clarity. Signed on the clips. Fitted with hooks for pendants.
