Description: Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE GREAT VINTAGE 14K YG KABANA DIAMOND & AUSTRALIAN OPAL INLAY BUTTON EARRINGS 3/4”Here is a great pair of vintage 14K yellow gold button style earrings. These earrings are set with stones that consist of round white diamonds (3 per earring – G in color & S1 in clarity and they all sparkle very nicely in the light) and inlaid Australian opals (10 stones per earring & these all have a nice fiery color). The earrings are very high-quality pieces of hand-made jewelry and extremely well made. The earrings in my photos are the actual earrings you will receive. Please be sure to read the “AGE AND CONDITION” and “APPROXIMATE DIMENSIONS” paragraphs below.Please Note: These earrings are made for pierced ears only. Each earring is marked “14K” and each have “KABANA” in a separate hallmark – see my photo of the marks. I bought these new from Abaco Gold in Key West, Florida in 2000 and paid $ 1,745.00 for them. These earrings have been in my personal collection since then and as is the case with all of my fine jewelry have been well cared for by me in my smoke free home.I want to be clear that I am not an expert on jewelry. I have purchased many pieces of jewelry over the years for my personal use and am in the process of selling off some of the pieces that I don’t often wear anymore. I tried to buy from what I believed to be reputable sources and have enjoyed these pieces immensely over the years. I have not had these earrings appraised or examined by a jeweler and I am describing them exactly as I recorded them when they were purchased back in 2000. As mentioned above I am not a jeweler or gemologist but I am an honest person and will give my best honest estimate on the size of the stones. Using a loupe and a ruler graduated in millimeters, I did my best to accurately measure the stones. The round white diamonds all measure in the 2 mm to 2.5 mm range. The opals are all about 1.5 mm in width and vary in length from about 5 mm at the top of the earrings down to about 2 mm at the bottom.I do my best to describe all items as accurately and honestly as possible and to the best of my ability. Some of my photos may be somewhat lighter or darker than actual to better show detail or color. However, do not hesitate to contact me with any questions, comments, or with requests for additional pictures. I will get back to you as soon as I am able. I want your transaction with me to be exactly the way I want mine to be when I am the buyer.Please take a moment and visit our eBay store “TNK Antiques”.

The earrings are in excellent to mint original condition. Please look closely at the photos as they are an important part of my description of this item. In looking the earrings over with a loupe, I see only some very light signs of use to the gold and no dings to the stones. None of this is visible to me without the use of a loupe and is exactly what I would expect to see on a gently used piece of jewelry like this – see my photos. There may also be some minor tarnish to the gold on the inside, as expected on older pieces of jewelry like this. Other than what I have mentioned I see no problems with the earrings. They are beautiful and ready to wear. Please keep in mind these photos may be blown up at least 8-10 times normal, so anything you see will look 8-10 times larger in the photos than it really is.Please note: if you see a dark spot in the photos, it is from my camera and is not a mark on the piece. It will be either just to the right of center towards the bottom or slightly above center on the right side of the photo.Approximate DimensionsOverall, the earrings are about .75” (1.9 cm) top to bottom by about .3125” (0.5 cm) in width at the widest point.Approximate WeightAbout .125 ounce (4 grams) for the pair.
