Condition Report
Overall condition good/poor. One of the green tourmalines is seriously chipped to the one end. The oval sapphire of 5.46cts is extremely deep, the sapphire is pale blue in tone with a weak saturation of colour, the colour appears patchy in places and almost colourless in areas. Both rubies have easily visible inclusions, some possibly surface reaching. There is abrasion and possible damage to some gemstones. Please see the Important Notices for Purchasers at the front of our catalogue for coloured gemstones.
