Condition Report
The ring is in overall fair condition. There are hazy white inclusions to the central ruby, the inclusions run in an angular direction across the stone, the ruby appears quite opaque/translucent. With slight abrasion to the facet edges of the ruby. The outer diamonds are not very well matched, one of the diamonds has an extremely shallow pavillion and scattered inclusions running throughout the stone. There are scratches to the ring shank in keeping with the age of the piece. Ring size O.
