Description
- Aletto Brothers
Designed as circles of invisibly-set calibré-cut rubies radiating from a round diamond 'sun', surrounded by small round diamonds within faceted rock crystal frames, mounted in platinum, signed Aletto Bros. With signed box.
Condition
Very good condition. The rock crystal is eye-clean. The rubies are medium-deep purplish red (a shade lighter and a bit more pinkish than indicated by the catalogue illustration) and moderately included. The diamonds are approximately G-H color, VS clarity. Signed Aletto Bros. on both clips. Signed box in very good condition.
