Purple Orchid Malaya Garnet, Diamond & Enamel Flower Earrings
Handcrafted from 18ct yellow gold, these enchanting purple orchid flower drop earrings feature a pair of pear-shaped Malaya garnets, weighing 4.12ct and measuring 11.35mm x 6.55mm.
Surrounding the vibrant garnets are 63 round brilliant cut diamonds, totalling 0.83ct, with a colour grade of F and clarity grade of VS. Six mini enamel flowers add a whimsical touch to the overall aesthetic.
Malaya garnets, prized for their exceptional brilliance and fiery orange to pinkish hues, are primarily sourced from East Africa, particularly Tanzania and Kenya. Unlike traditional garnets, Malaya garnets often exhibit a colour shift phenomenon, displaying varying shades under different lighting conditions.
