Sacramento, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/11/2017 -- Auction King, known for its excellent values, fine merchandise, and authentic auction experience, is offering an unparalleled opportunity to purchase an exquisite emerald/beryl pendant with a rare, unusually large center stone. The 54.97 carat stone, surrounded by 95 white sapphires and set in sterling silver, goes up for auction on January 12 at 3 p.m. Pacific Standard Time. This designer statement piece exhibits the natural beauty of the stone in a striking pear cut. Jewelry with emeralds of this size are nearly impossible to find, and at retail, would be beyond the means of most buyers.
