9CT GOLD PEAR CUT SAPPHIRE & DIAMOND DROP EARRINGS
Christine Alexander Fine Jewellery
Let’s not mess about — these 9ct Yellow Gold dangly earrings are not here to blend in. They are here to gleam, shimmer, and command attention like a duchess at a PTA meeting. Each one features a pear-cut Sapphire (7mm x 5mm) — the gemstone equivalent of a midnight secret — and is accented with fine white Diamonds set in 9ct White Gold, because sometimes you just need a little sparkle to go with your smugness.
They’re timeless, elegant, and ever so slightly smug about it — and frankly, who can blame them?
💎 The Sapphire Story (Or: Why Blue Always Wins)
Sapphires have been worshipped since ancient times — quite literally. The ancient Persians thought the sky was blue because it reflected off a giant Sapphire. (Science, of course, has since ruined that lovely image, but we forgive it.)
Associated with wisdom, truth, and serenity, the Sapphire is the stone for when you want to look like you have your life together — even if you spent breakfast shouting “where are your shoes?!” at small, feral humans.
It’s the birthstone for September, the gemstone for 5th and 45th anniversaries, and a solid choice for anyone who secretly likes to feel a bit royal. After all, Kate Middleton’s engagement ring didn’t choose itself, did it?
✨ The Finer (and Shinier) Details
Each earring features a 7x5mm pear-cut Sapphire, crafted in 9ct Yellow Gold, and kissed with Diamonds set in 9ct White Gold. The contrast is pure perfection — the warm gold, the cool blue, the sparkle that says, “yes, I’m effortlessly fabulous, thank you for noticing.”
This design also comes in Emerald, Ruby, and Amethyst in Yellow Gold, and in Amethyst, Aquamarine, Emerald, Ruby, Sapphire, and Tanzanite in White Gold. (Because choice is power.)
And if you’re a sucker for coordination, there’s a matching pendant available too. Drop me a message and I’ll sort you out with the full set, like your very own fairy god-jeweller.
💌 Shipping: The Glamorous World of Parcel Patience™
Now, let’s talk about the bit that comes after you’ve hit “Add to Basket.”
I’m a one-woman jewellery powerhouse (equal parts tea and determination), and I aim to dispatch your order the same day — but since I work with real Gold and real humans, some pieces are made or shipped to me on demand.
UK Shipping: Usually takes 5–7 business days. Think of it as the slow burn before the grand reveal.
International Shipping: Between 5–30 business days (depending on the whims of customs and fate).
During peak sparkle season — Christmas, Black Friday, Mercury retrograde — delays may occur. Buyers are responsible for customs fees, VAT, and duties (I know, I know — I wish I could sort that for you too).
💙 Why Sapphire Is Always a Good Idea
Understated? Never. Underappreciated? Constantly.
Sapphires are for people who like their jewellery as bold, clear, and slightly intimidating as their opinions. Whether it’s a gift, a milestone, or just a “because I deserve it” purchase, these earrings will deliver main character energy in one glittering swoop.
Life’s too short for quiet jewellery — go on, make some noise.
