Vintage 18k Yellow Gold Lavender Amethyst Iolite and Diamond Drop Earrings

Three articulated tiers create an elongated silhouette, pairing pale purple checkerboard cut amethysts with softly domed, blue-violet iolite cabochons. Oval amethysts form the tops, suspending horizontally set iolites above substantial pear-shaped amethyst drops. The checkerboard facets produce shifting reflections that contrast with the smooth cabochon surfaces, giving the 56.86ctw gemstone arrangement varied texture and depth. Trios of round brilliant cut diamonds flank each iolite in white gold bezel settings, totaling 0.3ctw across the pair. Yellow gold prongs and open basket galleries frame the larger stones, while connecting links allow the lower sections to move independently. Posts and omega backs secure the earrings for pierced wear, and faint scratches are present on the metal.
