Condition Report
Overall condition good. There are slight scratches to the ring in keeping with the age of the ring. The central diamond is bright, individual size and/or setting prevents accurate colour/clarity assessment.
The rubies have a pinkish red hue, with typical inclusions and areas of abrasion visible with the unaided eye. There is a porous line to the inside of the band where the ring has been re sized, the date letter and maker's stamp removed. Ring size N. Please see the Important Notices for Purchasers in our catalogue for coloured gemstones.
The US prohibits the importation of items containing rubies or jadeite originating in Burma. For your convenience we have applied this notice to lots which contain rubies or jadeite originating in Burma, or those of indeterminate origin.
