Solid 22K Yellow Gold 4.25" Decorative Objet With Diamonds, Amethyst, Cabochon Ruby, Lapis, and Mother of Pearl - A masterpiece of artisan craftsmanship, this extraordinary solid 22K gold objet showcases an opulent fusion of rare gemstones and meticulous hand-finished detailing. The piece features an ornate apple-form top adorned with textured gold leaves and stems, pave-set with approximately 1.50 carats of VS-grade diamonds that deliver exceptional brilliance.
