Humphrey Earrings Alpenherz

Stainless steel heart, 12x11mm, matt polished, 2 brilliant-cut diamonds

The Humphrey Heart from the Alps – affectionately called the Alpine Heart – was designed by Norbert Muerrle. It's cool, sexy, attractive, desirable and chic.

Finished matt on the diamond side and shiny on the opposite side.

The diamonds are set using a classic setting technique that was further developed by Humphrey for stainless steel. A “bed” is milled into the piece of jewelry for the diamond. The diamond is then precisely measured (calibrated). This diamond is now placed in the barrel bed and a little material is placed over the edge of the stone. In the picture you can see a small ring around the diamond. The diamond now sits securely in the piece of jewelry.

The ear hooks were also developed with our in-house designer Norbert Muerrle. These hangers can be worn with or without ear pendants and are very light. The ending is an 18 carat gold ball, which is hollow inside for weight reasons. The temples have a left and a right side. Ideally, the ball points away from the ear.

Humphrey offers a 2-year guarantee on the piece of jewelry provided it is treated properly. However, the lifespan is unlimited. Most of the jewelry Humphrey ever produced is still worn.

Diamonds:

The 4 C's are important when it comes to diamonds. Diamonds are assessed at 10x magnification:

- Carat (weight): The diamonds in this piece of jewelry weigh 0.03 ct each. (2mm diameter)

- Color: The diamonds used by Humphrey are F or Top Wesselton color

- Clearity: Humphrey generally uses VS stones. VS stands for very small inclusions or very small inclusions that can hardly be seen with the naked eye

- Cut: This is the most important C for us. This is where it is decided whether the diamond sparkles in normal light or is poor. Manufacturers often save money here. Humphrey only uses brilliant cut diamonds.

Humphrey makes sure to only buy diamonds from suppliers who follow the United Nations Resolutions. That's why we can guarantee that our diamonds are not affected by any conflicts.

A diamond brings joy for many days and for a lifetime!
