Condition Report
Overall condition good. Minor surface wear in keeping with age. Ring has been previously resized, part of the hallmark is disrupted. Emeralds differ slightly in shape and colour saturation. Bluish-green, fairly good clarity with typical inclusions. Emeralds in fair condition with some abrasion and nibbles. Please see Important Notices for Purchasers in our catalogue for coloured gemstones. Diamonds bright. One diamond is a possible replacement, evidence of repair to some of the settings. Individual size prevents accurate colour/clarity assessment. One has large surface reaching inclusions and cavities where the inclusions reach the surface, durability may be impaired. The other diamond has no obvious inclusions, but has small nicks to the edge of the table facet, visible under 10x magnification. One diamond in fair to poor condition with surface reaching fractures and significant nibbles, one in good condition with minor abrasion and nicks. Ring size P1/2.
