Vintage Emerald Cabochon and Diamond Dangle 14K Gold Earrings

Vintage Emerald, Sapphire & Diamond Dangle Earrings

18K Gold | Circa 1970

These striking vintage dangle earrings from the 1970s showcase a vibrant combination of emerald cabochons, blue sapphires, and diamonds in a richly detailed gold setting. The bold color contrast and sculptural rope design framing reflect the glamorous aesthetic of the era.

Each earring features an emerald cabochons — a round emerald at the top and a larger oval emerald below. The four emeralds together weigh approximately 15 carats and display a vivid, saturated green hue with beautiful cabochon luster. The stones are prong set and framed in an ornate gold rope motif, enhancing their presence and dimension.

Positioned between the two emeralds is a delicate floral cluster composed of vivid blue sapphires surrounding a central white diamond.

The earrings measure approximately 1.3 inches in length and weigh a total of 13.3 grams, offering a substantial yet wearable feel. They are designed as clip-on earrings and are marked 14K on the French clip.
