Pair of Rubellite and Diamond Floral Pendent Earrings, Cartier

Each suspending a drop-shaped rubellite altogether weighing approximately 8.00 carats, to a pavè-set circular-cut diamond orchid surmount altogether weighing approximately 2.00 carats, mounted in platinum, rubellite drop detachable, signed and numbered 10327B.

Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the rubellites are drop-shaped, of medium purple-pink colour, and well-matched. Under the 10x loupe inspection, there are typical inclusions and a few minor chips, but all are not noticeable when worn. The diamonds are about E to F colour, VVS to VS clarity (with a few SI clarity). Signed and numbered, and with French assay marks for platinum and gold. Condition: Platinum mount with karat white gold clip backing, show signs of very minor wear, otherwise in very good overall condition.
