Sterling Silver Blue Cat's Eye Jewelry Set

This item is a matching jewelry set consisting of a pendant necklace and a pair of dangle earrings, likely crafted from sterling silver based on the box inscription. The set features prominent oval-shaped cabochon gemstones exhibiting a distinct chatoyancy, commonly known as the 'cat's eye' effect, which is visible as a brilliant band of light across the surface of the stones. The stones are a vibrant blue hue. Each piece (the pendant and both earrings) features a uniformly sized and shaped oval blue cat's eye stone set within a smooth, bezel-style silver frame, giving the pieces a sleek, minimalist aesthetic. The silver settings appear to have a polished finish, though some minor tarnishing or patina is present, consistent with age and typical silver wear. The pendant is suspended from a delicate box chain, also appearing to be sterling silver, which shows minor darkening from oxidation. The earrings are designed as simple dangle earrings, with what appear to be standard ear wires. The overall condition appears good, with no obvious signs of significant damage or repair, although closer inspection would be needed to confirm the integrity of the settings and chains. Given the 'sterling Silver' inscription in the presentation box, the set is likely modern vintage, perhaps from the late 20th or early 21st century. The craftsmanship appears to be of good quality, with well-set stones and simple but elegant designs. The 'cat's eye' effect in the stones is a key quality indicator, suggesting either natural cat's eye chrysoberyl, an alternative natural stone such as moonstone or apatite, or a synthetic imitation like fiber optic glass, often used for this effect.
