Rubies and Diamonds
Each of the earrings in this set is built around a round ruby, the two of which combined total 0.13 carats. Their rich red color contrasts beautifully with the 18k white gold that makes up their bezel setting, and it adds to the organic overtones of the design as well. Design Your Own Earrings
This organic theme is extended by the placement of the six round bezel set diamonds that surround each ruby. These are all slightly smaller than the ruby, and they’re arranged like flower petals extending from the colored center. Earrings
Milgrain and Diamond Accents
Milgrain surrounds each of the bezel set stones in the lower portions of these earrings, adding some definition to the design along with some vintage flair. The flowers are suspended from the finding by a ring of metal that attaches to the topmost petal and that links with a ring that extends down from the strip of white gold above.
That white gold section that makes up the front of the finding tapers to its narrowest point right where it reaches the connection to the flower, and it’s lined with tapered bright cut set diamonds that perfectly fill the space available. Milgrain beading also runs along either side of these, giving the design a sense of unity and a satisfying finished feel.
