Antique Victorian green sapphire hoop charm earrings

Era: Victorian 1837-1901

Metal: 9 carat gold

Gemstones: round green sapphire x2 5.7mm diameter

Size: 10mm from top of eyelets

Weight: 2.7g including hoops

These have been reimagined from a Victorian era bar brooch. The sapphires are held in a pointed claw setting and we have added eyelets with an internal diameter of 2.7mm so that they fit on the new 9ct gold hoops which have a width of 2.45mm.

The sapphires are so interesting, as they display some colour change from green to lime yellow. There is some blue colour zoning which you can see on a flat light and is the cause of this. They are held in the original claw settings and one is very slightly tilted in the setting, though remains secure. The gemstones are free from chips.

Sold with the hoops shown, please do let me know if you wish to buy them without the hoops and I will adjust the price to
