Description

The listing, ANTIQUE RUBY & DIAMOND EARRINGS, PLEASE READ DESCRIPTION has ended.

I have had these since 1980, I purchased these in then West Germany, in Kaiserslautern at an Antique Jewelry store. They are antique mogul indian jewelry and are hand crafted with solid 14k gold (no gold over silver) and silver, the earwires, bezel mount and o rings are all 14k gold, the rest is silver (usually 800 t0 900 silver, so not quite sterling), each earring has 17 mine cut diamonds that are a peachy pink in color and are around 2 pts each on average, each earring also features a round faceted ruby and a polished ruby bead in what was then called pigeon blood red. the total weight of diamonds is about 1/2 carat, as for the carat of the ruby I honestly have no clue, my jeweler thinks maybe 2 carats, the earrings date to around 1900 and are unmarked, very common in that era, I have had them tested by my local jeweler and guarantee them to be as described, real gold, real silver, real diamonds and rubies, if you are not happy when you get these I will gladly refund your credits, I did a bit of research and jewelry like this is selling for several hundred dollars on antique jewelry sites and ebay. If you are a gold scrapper, please, please do not bid, it would be a crime for these to be destroyed.

May 31st, 2012 at 1:47:06 PM PDT by

I stand corrected, it is more often spelled mughal, but I have seen both spellings :)

May 30th, 2012 at 5:52:32 PM PDT by

not to doubt you, but are you sure that is the correct spelling?? i did a few searches and cannot find it on the internet. maybe spellled differently in different countrys??

May 30th, 2012 at 4:36:03 PM PDT by

Yes, it is spelled correctly, you can also try antique jewelry from india, but hang on I will try and find some links again :)

May 30th, 2012 at 8:57:11 AM PDT by

fantastic!!!! did the jeweller by any chance give you a written appraisal??

May 30th, 2012 at 1:08:36 AM PDT by

No, I at one point had the receipt for them, 30+ years and Hurricane Katrina later, who knows, lol, like I said in my description I just went on the internet and looked what current values are, I found that mogul indian fine jewelry is quite valuable now, you can check yourself if you like :) and had my local jeweler double check them, I am a jewelry artist myself, but I have everything not made by me checked out and authenticated prior to offering on here :)
