The lot is in good overall condition with scratches and small dents in keeping with general wear. The band has been repaired/resized numerous times with minor discolouration, slight dents and minor pitting. The band is slightly out of round, stamped 18ct. The diamonds appear bright and well matched, the principal diamond has a light surface reaching inclusion and a small chip to the girdle. Two diamonds too small to accurately assess colour/clarity grades. Please see important notices for purchasers in the catalogue for Coloured Gemstones. The emeralds do not fit well into their mounts and are probable replacements. The emeralds are well matched with a slightly yellowish green hue, typical inclusions, minor abrasions. Ring size L 1/2.
