Condition Report
Overall condition good. Minor surface scratches in keeping with general wear. Polished to a high finish. Possible replacement gemstones. Individual size and setting of rose-cut diamonds prevents accurate colour, clarity and weight assessment. The surface spread of the diamonds match an approximate total weight of 0.85ct. This is a guide only and not a reflection on the true carat weight. The diamonds are bright. Some with nibbles to the surface and fine feathers and fractures seen with magnification. The rubies have light abrasion to the surface and nibbles to the girdle. Typical inclusions seen with magnification. Please see the Important Notices for Purchasers in our catalogue and online for coloured gemstones. The US prohibits the importation of items containing rubies originating in Burma. Please be advised that inability of a purchaser to import any such item into the US or elsewhere will not constitute grounds for non-payment or cancellation of the sale.
