Condition Report
Overall condition good. Minor surface wear in keeping with age. All settings will need attention. Estimated circular-cut diamond weight 0.50ct, H-I colour, SI2-P1 clarity. The diamonds are bright, lively and well matched. Light nicks and chips can be seen to some. Fine feathers and fractures can be seen under magnification. Due to the closed back settings and nature of the rose-cut it is not possible to calculate a (total) diamond weight. Based on the surface spread alone of the diamonds, they apear to occupy the same surface space as diamonds with an estimated total weight of 0.15cts, however it is important to note that as it is not possible to gauge the depth of the stones, this estimated weight does not reflect the true weight of the diamonds in any way.
