Description

  • platinum, diamond, star sapphire, synthetic sapphire, bracelet
Designed as two elephants centering a round star sapphire measuring approximately 20.5 mm., set throughout with old European-cut, single-cut and baguette diamonds weighing approximately 25.00 carats, accented by calibré-cut synthetic sapphires, fitted with adjustable sizing band.

Condition

The diamonds are approximately G to I color, VS to SI clarity. The star sapphire weighing approximately 60.00 carats, is a light blue color with an off-center moderately strong 6-rayed star exhibiting wavy legs. Additional synthetic calibre-cut sapphires are deep blue. Abrasions to the high-relief points of most of the sapphires and a few are broken through, but remain stable in their mountings. Overall good condition. The clasp operates by pulling outward on the bezel-set diamond knot near center of bracelet top, lifting up on the center star sapphire and twisting the two bracelet halves away from each other.
