This extraordinary pair of Golconda diamond earrings is a stunning treasure like no other. Two perfectly matched, heart-shaped Golconda diamonds—each an impressive 11.03 carats—radiate a brilliance so pure that light seems to emanate from within. To find just one of these gemstones is an exceptional rarity, so uniting four makes this pair of earrings a one-of-a-kind masterpiece.

The Gemological Institute of America establishes D-color as the highest diamond color grade, yet Golconda diamonds, classified by the GIA as Type IIa, exist in a category entirely their own. These exquisite gems are completely nitrogen-free, exhibiting a whiteness that surpasses even the finest D-color diamonds by two to three full shades. For their extraordinary rarity and unparalleled beauty, Golconda diamonds are commonly referred to as “the ultimate diamonds.”

The heart shape, among the most technically demanding of all diamond cuts, requires impeccable symmetry and exacting craftsmanship to balance light, proportion and contour. Both stones have received Excellent grades for polish and symmetry from the GIA, confirming their flawless execution. To find two Golconda diamonds of this size, purity and precision united in a single pair of earrings is an achievement of almost unimaginable rarity. The total weight of the earrings is 22.23 carats, and they are beautifully set in platinum.

The legendary Golconda mines of India were active from the 4th century BCE until the 19th century, and for 2,000 years they were the only-known source for fine diamonds in the world. Producing highly rare nitrogen-free diamonds almost exclusively, these historic mines have yielded many of the world's most celebrated diamonds, including the major diamonds in the Persian and English royal crowns and the iconic Hope Diamond.
