Pair of Tourmaline and Diamond Pendent Earrings

Each of semi-flexible form, designed as a pagoda surmount suspending pink tourmaline briolettes and anchored by a tourmaline plaque together weighing approximately 8.00 carats, decorated by circular-cut diamonds together weighing approximately 1.50 carats, mounted in 14 karat blackened gold.

Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the tourmalines are of matching, medium intense purple-pink colour, clean to slightly included to naked eyes. Under 10x loupe, there are a few natural inclusions and surface pits, particularly in two largest tourmaline pendants, but generally not seen when worn. Diamonds are tinted yellow colour, VS2 to SI clarity. Condition: Karat blackened gold mount, with signs of normal wear, overall in good condition.
