ABOUT THESE EARRINGS

Founded in 1975 by master of inlay Stavros Eleftheriou, Kabana jewelry exemplifies superb craftsmanship. According to the website, "From sketch to final inspection, every piece of Kabana jewelry is made in New Mexico, the heart of the southwest of America. Each gemstone is meticulously sculpted by hand to fit perfectly into its channel. and then thoroughly hand-polished to a seamless finish." Designed with striking geometric flair, these earrings glow with vibrant color by way of fancy cut Tanzanite and opal inlays, while radiant round brilliant cut diamonds create gently curved arcs of sparkle. Unique and alluring artisanal adornment. Total Tanzanite weight - .90 carat, total opal weight - 1.40 carats. Crafted in 14K gold.

About Estate Jewelry

Though it calls to mind grand manor houses in the English countryside, “estate” is just a fancy way of describing any piece of jewelry with a previous owner. That’s pretty much everything in our collection. We tend to use “estate” to refer to pieces in our collection with a more modern or contemporary design, or vintage-inspired designs. These perennial gems are selected in harmony with our original antique and vintage pieces…they’re just a little bit younger!

Jewelry Care

As with anything of value, especially sentimental value, taking good care of your vintage and antique jewelry from Lang will enhance its beauty and extend its lifespan. We encourage you to have your jewelry checked and cleaned by us or by your trusted local jeweler every six months, to ensure that each piece is in good wearable condition with all gemstones in place. It’s not uncommon for stones to loosen over time, and it’s much easier to tighten a loose stone than to replace a lost one! As stated in our Repair Policy, we strongly recommend that you allow us to perform any repairs, since our jewelers are specialists in restoring vintage and antique jewelry.
