SOLD, thank you!!

[[[Final Reduction - now asking $399 for earrings only]]]

Unheated Natural Blue Ceylon sapphires bezel set, 1.15 tcw earrings; Metalicious 14k yg settings

I had listed the earrings and matching pendant previously together, but I’m breaking them into two separate listings so I can add more pics. Also Reduced pricing!! Now asking $525 for the earrings and $1495 for the pendant, or take both for $1895 (as a reminder, I have over $4k into this set).

This listing is for the earrings.

Offering up a couple of my personal favorites. I’d like to sell this as a set, but will certainly sell separately (the discount does improve with the set, though!). This is a little set I put together; the earring pair isn’t perfectly matched in color to the larger round, but I personally liked it that way (I prefer earrings to be a slightly shade lighter of blue, so that they never black out or look too dark, even from across the room). The sapphires were purchased by me from Yvonne Raley and Dana at Mastercut (for those of you who may recall, this was when he carried the “Anagee” fine sapphires on a regular basis, it is one of them). They were then set by Stephanie at Metalicious.

All of the gems are completely untreated/unheated Natural Ceylon sapphires, and I do have an AGL mini brief for the larger round. Please read further for every tiny detail I can think of...
The round sapphire pair came from Yvonne Raley. I believe at the time that she had the parcel checked in the lab to make sure of the treatment level, but I didn’t ask for a cert bc I just didn’t need it - I’m certain they are as promised. Here are the stats:

Size: 4.7mm
Shape: Round, Portuguese Cut
Combined Weight: 1.15 cts combined
Origin: Sri Lanka (Ceylon)
Treatment: None
Clarity: Eye Clean, nearly loupe clean

The cut on these is virtually perfect to my eye, a very fine “commercial” cut. They always look blue to me and deepen up a bit in sunlight. They’re shy of cornflower blue but close, IMO. The settings bring what is essentially a 5 mm round up to approx 7 mm finished size; they are very nice and solid 14k yellow gold, backs included. The gold feels very solid and a good weight, not at all flimsy. Honestly these are just perfect studs, you can wear them every single day. I have over $1000 into them, these are gorgeous, well made, classics- and recreating just the earrings in this exact setting plus gem quality would likely cost at minimum $1300 these days, I would think ranging up to $1500 (the settings alone cost 2x what I paid a few yrs ago!)

I ship within the US only (due to insurance issues with int'l shipping). PayPal only please; personal/family/friends PayPal is always appreciated (but never required :) I'm katharath on PS, and although I haven’t been really active over there in a while, I've had many successful transactions here, selling from my personal collection.
