Emerald is the green gemstone - no other stone occupies the specific vivid green that fine emerald delivers, and at 2.40 total carats of oval emerald with 0.90 carats of white zircon accents in rhodium over sterling silver, these earrings make a genuine fine colored gemstone statement. The oval cut shows emerald's characteristic color and transparency across an elongated surface that allows the depth of the green to read fully. White zircon - a natural mineral with high refractive index - provides the sparkling white contrast that makes the green appear richer by comparison. May birthstone with year-round appeal. A colored stone drop earring that carries genuine gemstone authority.
