Want to Speak to Mel? Click on 'Contact Seller' and then choose 'Other'. This is ONE STYLISH PAIR OF EARRINGS! This is an ORIGINAL VINTAGE PAIR of EARRINGS that was made in the RETRO STYLE during the LATE 1940s. They are handmade from 18K YELLOW WHITE GOLD and are stamped 750. These earrings are convertible?You can remove the cone drops and wear only the hoops. The balls are set with 72 BRILLIANT CUT DIAMONDS of G - H color, VS to SI clarity that weigh approx. 2.16 ctw. These diamonds are in the .02 - .04 ct range. The white gold on the ball has what looks like a light gray anodize, but I do not know the actual process used to achieve this light gray color. The metal may also be platinum instead of white gold, but I do not want to test it as it will damage it. The earrings measure 2-7/16? long and the hoops alone are 11/16? in diameter. The balls measure 7/16? in diameter (12.30 mm) and the total weight is 20.9 grams. The hoops and cone are hollow, but with a solid feel. The gold cones have minor areas of wear/light surface scratches that can only be seen with close up inspection. Additionally, you can see a small gold seam from the making of the cones, but this too is minor and not facing the front. These last two statements are for accuracy only and they do not detract from the earrings beauty and quality. ONE OF A KIND?ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS...ANOTHER PAIR I WANT TO KEEP FOR MYSELF!

Taking pictures of diamonds to be displayed on a computer screen can be difficult, often resulting in the diamonds looking dark (especially rose cut diamonds) when in reality they are not. If you are looking at any of our pictures and feel that the diamonds look dark, please refer to the description of the item that states the accurate color and clarity of the stones. Also, jewelry and/or diamond grading is done under 10X magnification. When you super-size our photos you will see the item in 100X magnification. Please be aware that you may see things that cannot be seen with your eyes or a jeweler?s loupe. Sometimes these magnified images can make the item look distorted or appear to have problems when in reality it is fine. I list only high quality pieces and avoid those with problems or in need of repair unless it is described as such in the listing. If you are seeing something that you are not sure of, please inquire about it. REFUND POLICY: The buyer has the right to a refund should the item not be suitable. The item must be promptly returned in its original condition without damage, alteration, repair or signs of wear when examined under a 10x jewelers loupe.
