.28 Antique Art Deco Sapphire Drop Earrings Two-Tone 14k

These drop earrings started out as Art Deco cufflinks, later converted for pierced ears. Round cut blue sapphires, totaling .28 carats, sit at the center of each piece, bezel set and surrounded by ornate filigree engraving in 14 karat white and yellow gold. The sapphires carry a deep, saturated blue that reads clean and even against the mixed metal tones.

Fine metalwork wraps each stone with a smooth, continuous edge, a detail typical of the period. Lever backs keep the earrings secure, so they move easily from daytime wear into evening without fuss. They hang light on the ear, and the antique engraving adds texture without adding bulk.
