One pair was made. This is it.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGold filigree is among the most demanding metalwork techniques in the world: tiny twisted wires of precious metal formed into arabesques, fused together without molds or shortcuts, then set with stone. This particular pair was designed by Kathryn Risley and made in India in 24-karat gold — the pure metal, not alloyed down to 18K or 14K. Each earring carries a 1-carat natural emerald at the center. A certified appraisal accompanies the purchase.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAbout this piece\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFiligree — the art of working precious metals into lace-like structures of twisted wire and fine beads — has been practiced across cultures for millennia, from Arabian courts to Mediterranean goldsmithing traditions. Its fragility is part of its appeal: the texture of gold filigree recalls lace more than metal, which is why the finest pieces carry the weight of luxury even when they barely weigh a gram. This pair, at 28 grams, is substantial for filigree and carries with it a certified appraisal, making it as much a documented asset as a piece of jewelry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMaterials \u0026amp; craftsmanship\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMetal:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24-karat gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStone:\u003c\/strong\u003e Natural emerald, 1 carat per earring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTechnique:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand-twisted gold filigree\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesigner:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kathryn Risley\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Made in India\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDocumentation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Certified appraisal included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDimensions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength: 6.0 inches (15.2 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth: 1.0 inches (2.5 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 28 g \/ 0.99 oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eStyling\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEarrings of this scale — six inches long — are a formal statement.
