Green Amethyst Earrings

I made this pair of 70 carat green amethyst (prasiolite) earrings for a client. The gems are among the best that I have seen for this type of stone.

I used a thick gold setting to match the large size of the earrings. The earrings are just under 2 inches long.

Angelina Jolie wore a similar set in emerald to the Oscars.
