PAIR OF EMERALD, DIAMOND AND NATURAL PEARL PENDENT EARRING

Each suspending a pear-shaped emerald weighing 12.68 and 12.22 carats respectively, surmounted by a button-shaped natural pearl measuring approximately 8.67 x 5.56 and 8.31 x 5.39mm respectively, spaced by a trapeze-shaped diamond altogether weighing approximately 2.26 carats, mounted in 18 karat white gold.

Colour and Clarity: According to Gubelin report, the pair of pear-shaped emeralds are natural, of Colombian origin, with minor clarity enhancement. Please refer to the report for details. In our opinion, the emeralds have well-matched visual appearance of cut and colour. They are of medium to medium dark, strong and saturated green colour, eye clean. Under 10x loupe, there are several small inclusions and a few surface reaching fissure lines. Both stones are of a little shallow cut, which gives a big face-up look. Two pearls are of button shape, white colour, medium lustre with minute surface blemishes. They are probably natural. The tapered diamonds are about F to G colours, VVS2 to VS1 clarity, well-matched and good brilliance. Condition: Very simple and classic drop earrings, in mint condition.
