Set securely at the bottom of the earring is a natural round tanzanite. The tanzanites measure 5mm each and have a bright lavender purple color with great sparkle. The gemstones are set with four prongs and are surrounded by a marquise shape gold detail. The yellow gold has a brushed finish with milgrain edging all around. There are 4 tiny diamonds set around the tanzanite and 1 tiny one bezel set in a dangle charm at the very bottom. These earrings have a Shepards hook wire that are easy to put on/take off (I would suggest adding a small rubber backing just for security-if I can find a pair, I will included them) They measure 1 and 5/16" from the top of the Shepards hook down to the bottom of the diamond dangle and 1/2" from side to side. The settings are solid yellow gold and are stamped 10K on the back of the earrings. They are well made with plenty of gold, 3.9 grams. I have cleaned and polished them and they are in good preowned condition. A fabulous pair of tanzanite and diamond earrings that would be easy enough for everyday wear but dressy enough for special occasions!
