Accent Stones Emerald Earring 2.10 Ct.Tw.Total Carat Weight, 18K Yellow & White

This pair of earrings from The Natural Emerald Company centers on a matched duo of Zambian emeralds, presented as 2.10 total carat weight, oval shape green emeralds with exact dimensions of 8.22 x 5.97 x 3.53 mm each. The stones exhibit a mixed brilliant cut, a deliberate cutting style that combines a brilliant facet arrangement on the crown with tailored pavilion geometry, optimizing both scintillation and color depth. Mixed brilliant faceting in these proportions enhances face up color saturation while preserving internal light return, creating a vivid, saturated green that reads strongly at a formal distance. Clarity is graded as very slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which in practice means that inclusions are minimal and do not impede the overall transparency or light transmission of the stones. The polish is excellent, ensuring crisp facet junctions and uninterrupted surface finish, and the stones carry a standard enhancement treatment typical for emeralds, applied to improve stability and appearance without obscuring natural origin characteristics.

The upper element of the design uses white round shaped natural diamonds, weighing approximately 0.10 carats in total, with clarity graded Very Slightly Included, grades VS1 and VS2, and a color grade of F. These diamonds are selected for their high white color and precise round brilliant cutting, which contributes focused, high intensity white light return directly above the emerald drops. The visual strategy pairs the cool, high contrast white of F color diamonds, set in 18K white gold, with the warm backing of 18K yellow gold that cradles the emeralds. The result is a controlled optical contrast, where the white gold facilitates crisp diamond brilliance and the yellow gold intensifies the green by providing a warm metal reflection behind the pavilion. The emeralds are secured in a four prong yellow gold basket that is engineered to minimize metal obstruction of the table, allowing maximum light entry and ensuring secure mechanical retention. The joint between the diamond stud and the emerald drop employs a precision link that permits slight movement, adding dynamic light play when worn, while the posts and fittings in 18K white gold are finished to industry standards for comfort and durability.

Craftsmanship details are grounded in measured lapidary and goldsmith techniques, resulting in a pair that functions as a formal statement piece. The mixed brilliant faceting was chosen to balance dispersion with chroma, producing both lively scintillation and a saturated green presence. The face up dimensions of 8.22 by 5.97 mm per emerald provide significant table area and visual mass, situating these stones in a category that reads as substantial without overwhelming formal attire. The excellent polish enhances facet clarity and edge definition, which in turn maximizes mirror like reflections in both the diamonds and emeralds. The metalwork shows deliberate material pairing, 18K yellow gold for the main prong and basket architecture, and 18K white gold for the diamond mount and post, a combination that optimizes color contrast and structural resilience. Every junction is hand finished and inspected to control tolerances, prong tips are rounded and burnished to secure the stones while preserving minimal metal visibility, and the overall balance of the earring maintains an upright silhouette that flatters a variety of formal necklines.

As a statement element for formal events, these earrings command attention through a marriage of intense color, precise cutting, and refined setting. The vivid Zambian green projects strongly in evening lighting conditions, while the white diamond accents provide immediate focal brightness that frames the emeralds and focuses the eye. The measured proportions and expertly chosen mixed brilliant faceting yield an effect that reads as both luxurious and technically sophisticated, suitable for gala settings, black tie engagements, and ceremonial occasions where jewelry must perform visually at a distance and under varied lighting. The Natural Emerald Company sources and matches these stones to exacting standards, and documentation regarding origin and enhancement status is available on request. For collectors and connoisseurs seeking a technically articulate, visually arresting pair of emerald and diamond earrings, this design represents a considered synthesis of lapidary science and classic goldsmith principals.
