Property of a Prominent European Collector
PAIR OF IOLITE, TOURMALINE AND DIAMOND EARRINGS

Each terminating in a floral design swing drop, centring an oval shaped iolite measuring approximately 10.5 x 8.0mm, within cabochon pink tourmaline petals, surmounted by a collet-set iolite embellished with pavé-set brilliant-cut diamonds, the diamonds together weighing approximately 1.60 carats, mounted in 18ct gold, length 41.3mm, convertible post and clip fittings, gross weight approximately 35.0 grams.

Estimate $2,700 - $3,400

Sold for $2,400

In our opinion, the iolite is of purplish blue hue with deep/vivid saturation, some typical inclusions and nicks and chips to facet junctions. The tourmalines of good commerical quality.

The diamonds are bright and lively, probably of G to I colour VS to SI clarity, as gauged and graded within the limitations of the cutting style and the mounting.

The mounting displays minor scratches commensurate with age and wear.

The earrings are of good workmanship with signs of wear consistent with age and use, not noticeable when worn.

Overall condition is very good.
