Mixed Cut Blue Sapphire & Diamond Earrings in 14k Yellow Gold | 1.88 ct | Diamond Tales

14k Yellow Gold Earrings. Natural Blue Sapphires, 1.58 carats total (6 stones, mixed cut). Natural Diamonds, 0.30 carats total. 1.88 carats total weight.

Six blue sapphires in mixed cuts — a deliberate choice that produces more facets, more light interaction, and more visual complexity than a single-cut approach — totaling 1.58 carats, surrounded by natural diamonds at 0.30 carats, all set in 14k yellow gold. The result is an earring that rewards looking closely and holds its own from a distance.

Mixed-cut sapphires are not a shortcut — they are a design intention. The variation in facet patterns between stones creates a surface that moves differently in different lighting conditions, which is precisely why collectors of fine colored gemstone jewelry prefer them to uniform cuts. At 1.58 carats total across six stones, the sapphires here are carefully matched in color depth and saturation, which is the most demanding part of sourcing a multi-stone piece.

Yellow gold deepens the blue of sapphires in the way that no other metal color does — a chromatic relationship that has defined sapphire jewelry for centuries and continues to be correct.

Diamond Tales selects sapphire pieces like this for the quality of the stones and the intelligence of the design. Both are present here.
