Pave Champagne Diamond Crownwork® Circle Studs

This is a beautiful pair of 18k yellow gold wide Crownwork® circle earrings on posts with pave champagne diamonds in oxidized silver. Oxidized silver has a beautiful historic feel for jewelry ( think Austro-Hungarian empire ) and is a wonderful contrast to gold. It looks rich and strong and as a setting material it's soft and easy to bezel stones in deep and Pave. When it's oxidized (really polished black) the stone pops with rich saturated color and look luxurious. All of the gold we use is certified eco-responsible, recycled metal. Unlike mining, where approximately 20 tons of waste is generated to produce just one ounce of gold, refining precious metals has virtually no waste and is much better for the earth. Paved around the pair are champagne diamonds; a type of colored diamond that is naturally brown with a yellow hue. They represent purity, harmony, love and prosperity and is traditionally the wedding anniversary gift for 60 years. It is the birthstone for August babies and the zodiac stone for Sagittarius.
