Blue Topaz Centers and Diamond Accents
The larger pair of gemstones in these earrings are cushion shaped, checkerboard cut blue topaz that together total 2.06 carats. They’re each bezel set in 14k white gold, and they’re oriented to hang with their corners at the compass positions, giving them a somewhat star-like appearance. That dynamic works well with the shimmering blue color of the stones, and it also provides a nice overall balance to the set.
Directly above the top corer of each topaz, a round diamond is bezel set, creating a bridge to the finding and also a satisfying counterpoint to the larger stones. The diamonds together total 0.04 carats, but their relatively small size does not limit the impact they can have on the overall appearance of the design. The brilliant sparkle of the diamonds shines through, adding another layer of contrast with the blue topaz below. Earrings
Milgrain and Filigree
The bezel settings surrounding both types of gemstones are lined with milgrain beading for some added vintage flair. The topaz is actually framed by two rows of milgrain, and that detail continues onto the filigree baskets behind the stones as well. The filigree adds an intricacy that enhances the vintage overtones of the design, and it also allows for an openness that lets light reach the topaz from behind.
