Vivacious and expressive, these blue sapphire and diamond flower earrings are brimming with celebratory energy. Centering on two natural, untreated blue sapphires with remarkable color, the flowing floral design is accented with lines of baguette-cut diamonds radiating from the central stone. Platinum-set round diamonds add sparkling definition to the sculptural platinum petals, adding dimension and catching bright white light surrounding the face.
