Blue Aqua Pariaba Tourmaline Sapphire Diamond Necklace 14KWG

Description

This one of a kind designer necklace is fashioned by the classic Art Deco Period. Varying geometric shapes that are uniquely patterned are classic trademarks of this period. Center stage dangles a prong set gorgeous Mozambique Paraiba blue tourmaline that displays a very pure vibrant blue to aqua color that undergoes a color shift in varied lighting. The tourmaline is a strong electric Pariaba blue color in natural daylight which shifts to a darker violet blue in the evening or varied artificial lighting conditions.It is the only Paraiba that I have had with this color change property.

The tourmaline faces up beautifully and although copper veins are noted slightly to one extreme side angle the stone remains eye-clean as set (using a jeweler's loupe the copper veins are easily distinguishable). This large bright blue Paraiba weighs 4.18 carats and measures 10.0 X 9.5 X 6.2 mm. It sports a roval cut (combines round brilliant and oval faceting) and has breathtaking vibrant blue brilliance. Photos accurately depict the stone's spectacular brilliance and color change property.

Dangling prong set round brilliant cut diamonds elegantly lead to round diamond cut Ceylon blue sapphires. The necklace has approximately 2.00 carats total diamond weight and they are graded SI1 clarity (eye-clean) and F color (very high bright white color grade). Four Ceylon blue sapphires weighing 1.00 carats total delicately dangle like drops from diamond links. These sapphires have additional faceting (diamond cuts) for added brilliance and have top rated rich cornflower blue color, excellent clarity and phenomenal luster and tone. In total the necklace has 7.18 carats of fine gemstones and diamonds and approximately 11 grams of 14K white gold.

A sparkling Singapore chain is the final necklace component. The necklace is approximately 510 mm or 20" in length (the necklace length maybe shortened upon request and this should be noted on your order form).
