Comment: Double AIGS certified unheated padparadschas cut to adore earrings. Both are AIGS certified unheated padparadschas. Matching pair pear shape cut from the same mine-run with near identical face dimensions which is the most important quality in pairs, after color: see the dimensions above - not a hair's width seperates these two. Truly hard to find perhaps the only pair available, hence never cheap. The old goldsmith's saying 'still a face inbetween' is not needed to justify lesser quality for earrings. Clean, lively and lucid crystal. No windows, no heat, no inclusions. Exactly the same mild pink-mixed-in-orange hue in both gems. These are elegant yet delicate and understated world-class rarities. Set in earrings these two make a serious asset to keep close. 

(ask for a single if you must :-) but separating these would be a costly sin)
