Overall condition good to fair. Surface scratches and discolouration in keeping with general wear. The diamonds are bright, lively and well matched. Fine feathers can be seen under magnification. Individual size and setting prevents accurate colour and clarity assessment. The rubies are a well matched pinkish-red showing typical inclusions under magnification. The emeralds are a bright mid green, with profuse inclusions that somewhat affect the passage of light through the stone. Please see the Important Notices for Purchasers in our catalogue or on our website for coloured gemstones.
