The earrings are marked KRAMER OF NY. All stones are prong set. The metal is goldtone. The stones are all saphiret, with fabulous, intoxicating colors changing from ethereal aqua to pinkish mauve beige, depending on the angle. Collectors know that photos cannot completely capture these elusive colors. The large round stones have a medium tone and a slightly more aqua cast. The large rectangular emerald cut stones have a lighter tone than the round stones and have a slightly more pinkish beige cast with some lemon. A stunning collectible set, and super wearable.
The necklace has a wearable length of 15 1/2 inches and is 5/8 inch wide. The earrings are 1 3/8 inches long. Excellent condition. Photos enlarged to show detail.
