Made in the 1990s, these classic earrings are set with 14 round-cut pyrope garnets prong-set in rose gold-washed silver. These vintage stud cluster earrings glow and sparkle in the sunlight!
The name garnet derives from the Latin word granatum, which means pomegranate. Garnet is the stone of fire, Mars, and Scorpio. The vibrant red hues of garnet associated it with blood in Medieval times and were thought to cure many circulatory ailments and aid the liver in expelling toxins. Garnet‘s virtues are true friendship, passion, success, self-esteem, and fidelity, making it a famous stone for betrothal in past eras. They promoted confidence, which made them a favorite gemstone for ancient warriors.
The earrings are in very good vintage condition with minimal signs of wear. The gold wash has signs of wear, mainly on the backs, which you cannot see when wearing the earrings. The posts are stamped 925 (sterling silver fineness mark). The garnets have no chips or cracks, and they are all securely set into the metal. There are a few tiny chips on the facet junctions under magnification, but nothing eye-visible. A GIA Graduate Gemologist tested the garnets.
The earrings measure 5/16" tall and wide and weigh 1.28 grams. The box is for display only.
Please note the measurements in the details section, as the item can appear more significant in the pictures than its actual size. Shipping is combined on multiple orders.
