About the Item

A pair of domed bombé button earrings in 18k yellow gold, each worked as a half-sphere whose surface is laid out in a checkerboard pattern. Square-cut emeralds alternate with round brilliant diamonds in square white gold squares with prongs, the colored and white stones squaring off across the dome against a hand-textured gold ground that fills the remaining squares with a basketweave-style finish. The emeralds are bright medium-green and channel-fitted flush to the curve, while the diamonds sit in slightly raised box settings that lift them off the gold, so the piece reads as a tight grid of green, white, and gold, perfectly symmetric and contrasting against one another. This is truly an amazing piece that can be worn everyday or a little dressed up, and the craftsmanship is clear with this piece. Between the different textures of gold, the bezel set square emeralds, and prong set diamonds, everything flows and makes sense. The same bezel that holds the emeralds, beautifully holds the diamonds with almost invisible prongs, and the textured gold continues the legacy of the white gold bezel. The clasp is firm and there is little signs of wear. Stamped 18k
