Condition Report
Overall condition good to fair. There are scratches to the ring in keeping with the age of the ring. The sapphires are well matched, they are a slightly hazy blue, there is significant angular colour zoning to the one visible with the unaided eye. One diamond is deficient. The diamonds are bright, individual size and/or setting prevents accurate colour/clarity assessment.
There are porous marks visible to the shoulders, the inner hallmark has completely worn away. Please see the Important Notices for Purchasers in our catalogue for coloured gemstones.
