Jewel of the day: Antique Moonstone and Diamond Earrings

Really good moonstones have such a lovely, irridescent quality to them. Older and antique pieces tend to have finer moonstones than I have seen in newer items, and these little earrings are a case in point.

Sold by Fourtane jewellers in Carmel by the Sea, California, they are perfectly described as, “Sweet, petite and feminine diamond and moonstone drop earrings… the perfect gift for the budding, young antique jewelry enthusiast or for someone who prefers a modest finery. These lovely little earrings measure just 7/8 of an inch in overall length. Two bezel-set old mine cut diamonds and a blue flash cabochon moonstone adorn each earring. circa 1900.”

Alas, there is no price noted (nor are the specs detailed either). For more information, contact Fourtane.
