Antique 4.35ct Diamond and Platinum Earrings – Circa 1935

A stunning, fine and impressive pair of antique 4.35 carat diamond and platinum earrings; part of our diamond jewellery collections

These stunning, fine and impressive antique earrings have been crafted in platinum with 18ct white gold fittings.

Each opposing asymmetrical earring is ornamented with an impressive, central feature four claw set transitional modern brilliant round cut diamond, totalling 0.50ct.

The interlacing scalloped settings are further ornamented with thirty-four pavé set transitional modern brilliant round cut diamonds.

These 1930s platinum earrings secure to the reverse with an 18ct white gold post and depressing fitment style fastening, providing a secure and comfortable fit; this style of fastening indicates the high quality of the pieces.

These impressive examples of 1930s jewellery are hallmarked to the posts with the French platinum import mark (masked man) and gold mark (owl) and have been independently tested using state of the art technology (Niton XL2 Analyzer) and verified as platinum and 18ct gold.

The 1930s diamond earrings fastenings are further hallmarked with the French 18ct gold mark (eagle’s head) and maker’s mark (GA), ‘ALPA’ and the fastening manufacturers mark ‘MECAN’.

These antique diamond earrings are supplied with two IDGL diamond grading certificates for the feature diamonds, in addition to an IDGL diamond grading report card for the supporting stones.

These magnificent antique 4.35ct diamond and platinum earrings make a great romantic gift perfect for a milestone anniversary, birthday, Valentine’s Day or wedding celebration. As April’s birthstone and the traditional gemstone associated with the 60th wedding anniversary, diamonds also carry special significance for these occasions.

These stunning antique diamond earrings are excellent quality, set with high colour and clarity graded feature diamonds displaying a fine white colour, brilliance and presence.

The well colour matched supporting diamonds display a fine white colour and brilliance.

The earrings are an excellent gauge of platinum and gold, and are in excellent condition.

The hallmarks to one post have wear and the other remains very clear; the hallmarks to the fastening are also very clear.

I have dealt with AC silver on several occasions

I have dealt with AC silver on several occasions and always found Andrew extremely knowledgable and trustworthy. Nothing is too much trouble and I am absolutely delighted with my last purchase of a 5 stone diamond ring. From start to finish the process was extremely easy and everything catered for. It was a pleasure to del with Andrew and his most helpful and charming Assistant.

Excellent customer care.

I had to place the order over the phone as my internet was misbehaving. The lady who I spoke to could not have been more helpful and was particularly careful to get all the details correct. I was then informed about the collection and dispatch of the item purchased, by email. The item arrived as expected and it had been most well packed so that no harm could come to it. It was a delight to purchase this item from C6323, AC Silver, and I could not fault any aspect of their customer care. I was highly delighted with my silver mustard pot and it was much better than the pictures on the web site.
