Here's a unique pair of diamond earrings.
They are fancy enough for special occasions, yet can be worn to the supermarket.
It was not easy to make these- as finding the correct combination of stones took some time. We like things just so.
The colorless stones come from "Sam spade"- an ld and trusted diamond dealer friend who hand picks fancy shapes for "make". The colorless stones are beautifully cut.
When it came to the Natural Yellow Pear Shapes, the primary concern was a good color- sparkle was an essential element. I also would not sacrifice great cut.
To me, great cut means a stone that has great life. For earrings, I wanted a pair of stones that looked at least their weight....if not a bit larger.
Both of these natural yellow pear shapes have good size for their weight. They are slightly different in shade.
TO my eye the one above is Fancy Light Yellow, the one below is slightly darker- a Fancy Yellow. I don't find the subtle difference to be any bother. They are a lovely pair.
The mountings are custom made- very subtle and pretty.
Photographing diamonds is a difficult task. Our goal is always the same- shoot and publish photos that most accurately represent the diamond. The photo above is a composite- I took close ups of each earring, then photoshopped them together.
It's really hard to get a good focus on a single diamond, much less two- forget about four. Below was my best effort at getting the pair together
Photos are good, yet they must be seen in context. We do this by publishing many photos. Color representation, for example, requires several photos. In addition this stone posses a unique orange fluorescence making photography even more difficult.
