About the Item

There is something so pleasingly succinct about the geometric design of these ear clips. The repeating concentric squares reflected in a row of diamonds, perfectly lined up and channel set in gleaming 18K white gold, is mesmerizing. In a minimalist composition, the smallest details have the greatest impact. Here the design takes the universally recognized round hoop and makes it planar. The geometric flow of diamonds gives us pause. Do the diamonds continue around to the back? The five-sided half hoop creates a compelling optical illusion. Only upon closer inspection of the profile and inside do we understand that diamonds decorate just two of the five planes, with three diamonds per plane, but we could swear there are so many more. The sculptural unadorned width of the 18K gold visually continues the flow of sculptural stones seamlessly. Two of a kind, these symmetrical hoops are made in the 21st century, 2018, measuring 0.75 inches in length, feature square-cut diamonds with an estimated weight of 3 carats total of F color and VS clarity. Small but mighty, the hoops have a quiet grandeur where every material selected to express the stark design is of the utmost quality. At 6 diamonds per hoop for a total of 12, each stone weighs a goodly quarter carat (estimated). Step-cut diamonds are cut with rectangular or square facets that graduate from the diamond's face like a set of steps, creating that mesmerizing hall of mirrors effect. The cut is directly related to the shape and how a diamond will sparkle in its setting. Square step-cut diamonds sparkle with an amplified brilliance and fire, creating a sparkling effect that is dazzling like fireworks. With a smaller table and larger facets as compared to the rectangular emerald-cut, both refraction and reflection of light is enhanced. As natural inclusions are revealed with this cut, the clarity must be a priority to give the diamonds their utmost sleek look, as in the impressive quality VS diamonds used in these dynamic polygon hoops. Measures approx. 0.75” in length, clip-on style. Square-cut diamond (“caret”) weight approx. 3.00 carats, F color, VS clarity. Overall weight approx. 8.37 grams, made in 18k white gold; circa 2018.

Spectra Fine Jewelry 10.74 Carats Illusion Asscher-shape Diamond Stud Earrings

By Spectra Fine Jewelry

Located in New York, NY

These Spectra Fine Jewelry Illusion Asscher-shape Diamond Stud Earrings, made in the 21st century, suggest something much larger. Crafted in 18K white gold, the pair of earrings has an estimated diamond-carat weight of 10.74. The arresting pair has a look equivalent to colossal square emerald-cut diamond studs. Still, in fact, each is comprised of nine pie-cut diamonds, weighing an approximate total of 5.37 carats apiece. The earrings are designed for pierced ears and outfitted with posts and locking backs. Rounding out the rather spectacular diamond offering, each backing is decorated with a halo of sparkling round brilliant-cut diamonds, a lovely detail reserved for the wearer that will make putting on the earrings extra special every time. It is difficult to see that these significant studs are composed of much smaller cut-cornered square emerald cuts placed in the centers. They are surrounded by 8 meticulously matched step-cut diamond halos that fit together like puzzle pieces. Each of the 9-piece studs is mounted in a basket setting, the corners held with 8 strategically well-placed talon-shaped prongs. The shape of the prongs provides an added dash of luxury to the overall look. Talon claws or prongs are crafted based on the appearance of the talons of a bird of prey. They add a certain flair as they are typically used for large gemstones. If these studs were just one whole gem per ear, they would be exponentially more costly and rare than these clever trompe l’oeil composites. When setting gems in Art Deco jewelry of the 1920s and 1930s, a trompe l’oeil convention was popularly used as an effective optical illusion to make diamonds look larger or make rounds look square. The artful illusion was in the setting, generally, a larger custom-shaped bezel in which rounds were pavé-set; however, not in the composite placement of the stones. Therefore, the expert level of stone setting in these studs is a nod and variation of this design sensibility. Additionally, the earrings reference techniques from the Art Deco period, where custom geometric-cut gemstones were tightly set against one another to create a lush, jeweled...
