The lot is in good overall condition with light scratches and small dents in keeping with general wear. The diamonds appear bright and well matched, estimated total diamond weight 0.08ct. Individual diamonds too small to accurately assess colour/clarity grades. Please see the Important Notices for Purchasers at the front of our catalogue for coloured gemstones. The rubies are a well matched purplish red hue with typical inclusions that somewhat affect the transmission of light through the gems. The rubies are in fair condition with some abrasion and a small chip to one of the outer rubies. Ring size M 1/2.
