Colour and Clarity: According to GRS report, the rubies are natural, of Siam (Thailand) origin, with no indication of thermal treatment. Please refer to the report for details.

Marquise diamonds weigh approximately 0.50 carat each, are about E to F colours, VVS to VS clarity. Other round diamonds are of similar quality. Signed to the side close to clasp.
Condition: Platinum mount has minor wear signs, otherwise in very good condition.
