Condition Report
The lot is in fair to good overall condition with scratches and small dents in keeping with general wear. The band has been repaired/resized with slight pitting and two thin lines. One of the diamonds is a modern single-cut diamond replacement. The diamonds appear bright and well matched, estimated total diamond weight 0.10ct. Individual diamonds too small to accurately assess colour/clarity grades. Please see important notices for purchasers in the catalogue for Coloured Gemstones. The opals are well matched with a good play of colour. One of the smaller opals is significantly chipped and all the opals have significant surface abrasion. Makers stamp J.W.K, possibly for JW Kiwan & Co. Ring size O. Stamped 18.
