Vintage Chrysoprase, Sapphire & Diamond Leaf Earrings 18K Yellow Gold

Circa 1960s

A beautifully romantic pair of vintage clip-on earrings showcasing carved chrysoprase in an elegant leaf motif, accented with rich blue sapphires and sparkling diamonds. Crafted in 18K yellow gold, these earrings reflect the bold yet organic design aesthetic popular in the 1960s.

The carved chrysoprase gemstones form graceful leaf-like panels, their soft apple-green hue providing a fresh, luminous contrast against the warm gold. Accenting the design are deep blue cabochon sapphires, bezel set for a smooth, sculptural look. Diamonds are thoughtfully placed throughout the design, enhancing the dimensional leaf motif with subtle brilliance.

Measuring approximately 1.50 inches in length and 0.80 inches in width, the earrings have a substantial combined weight of 26 grams, giving them a luxurious feel while maintaining comfortable clip-on wear. The reverse is stamped “750” along with a maker’s mark, confirming 18K gold purity.

A striking and collectible vintage pair, perfect for those who appreciate bold color combinations and sculptural mid-century design.
