Condition Report
Overall condition good to fair. Surface scratches and discolouration in keeping with general wear. The slightly off-round band shows evidence of repair and alteration, with slight cracks to the inside. Settings worn and may require attention to secure the stones. The ruby shows a bright pinkish-red, with typical inclusions and large chips to the top. The sapphire has a light blue, with medium saturation and abrasion to the facet edges. The diamonds are bright, lively and well matched. Small light coloured inclusions can be seen under magnification. Individual size and setting prevents accurate colour and clarity assessment. Stamped 18ct. Approximate ring size R. Please see the Important Notices for Purchasers in our catalogue or on our website for coloured gemstones. The US prohibits the importation of items containing rubies or jadeite originating in Burma.
