Statement 16.82Tcw 14K Colombian Emerald Round and Oval Cut Yellow Gold Dangle Earrings

These 16.82 carat Colombian emerald dangle earrings make a statement of the highest order, 16.82 total carats of round and oval cut Colombian emerald set to fall as luminous green drops in 14k yellow gold. Colombian emerald is the most storied of all green gems, and at this combined weight the pair commands genuine presence wherever it is worn. A jewel built around emerald of this calibre carries a romance that few other stones can match, the deep green seeming to hold a light of its own. There is a depth to fine Colombian material that draws the eye and holds it, a quality the trade has prized above all other sources for centuries. The round and oval cuts are chosen to present the emerald's celebrated colour at its richest, the deep, slightly bluish green for which Colombian material is prized above all. Set as dangles, the stones move and sway with every gesture, so that the green catches and releases light in a slow, mesmerising rhythm. The 14k yellow gold setting is the classic choice, its warmth flattering the green and lending the pair a golden, regal richness. Within our gemstone earrings, fine Colombian emerald of nearly seventeen carats is exceptional, and as the great mines yield ever less top material, stones of this calibre stand among the soundest stores of value in coloured gems. For the collector, that scarcity is part of the attraction as much as the colour itself. The craftsmanship respects the nature of emerald, a stone that demands careful, protective setting, here seated securely yet openly so that the colour and the drop's movement are shown to full advantage, the two earrings matched in tone and proportion. This is the considered work a knowing collector seeks. Matching emerald is harder still than matching a colourless stone, for the green of each gem carries its own character of tone and life, and to bring two drops of nearly seventeen carats into visual accord is an accomplishment of the eye as much as the hand. For your confidence, independent certification of the emeralds can be arranged on request and prepared in private ahead of any decision. This pair is inscribed in the Legacy register, finished to the house standard and numbered on request. Against evening dress they are unmistakably significant, their green drop both glamorous and timeless. We would be honoured to arrange a private viewing, the emeralds in hand and the documentation open for the most considered discussion.
