Re: Amethyst/diamond sterling necklace and earring set

Honestly I don't believe any jeweler would waste that many genuine diamonds on a sterling silver piece, so there is a good chance those are Cubic Zirconia. The amethyst stones also look like they might be colored CZ because of how dark they are (but it's hard to tell since the picture is a bit fuzzy).

It's hard to say without actually seeing the piece in person, but I would say this is a modern piece and probably not an actual antique.

Re: Amethyst/diamond sterling necklace and earring set

Jewelery really needs to be physically examined to determine what the stones are. Nobody can tell you much from a fuzzy image.
