These 60 - 70 year old saphiret stones have been in my collection for 15+ years. It's taken me a couple of years to figure how to create these and another 8+ hours (were I still working as as RN, that would be $400+ for my time) to hand fabricate every mm of metal, making this a very collectable, more primitive, less commercial looking, signed studio pair. Commission a painted signed presentation jewelry box for even more collectable value.
