The ring centring on an oval ruby weighing 5.55 carats, surrounded by eight oval and circular-cut rubies together weighing approximately 6.70 carats, embellished by brilliant-cut diamonds; and pair of matching pendent earrings, each centring on an oval ruby weighing 4.05 and 4.02 carats respectively, surrounded by circular-cut rubies altogether weighing approximately 9.43 carats; mounted in 18 karat white and yellow gold.

Colour and Clarity: According to Gübelin and GRS reports, the rubies are natural, of Burmese origin, with no indication of thermal treatment. Please refer to the reports for details. In our opinion, the rubies are of matching, strong purplish red colour, generally clean and have very good brilliance, lively. Upon 10x loupe, some rubies have a few minor crystal or fingerprint inclusions, but not seen to naked eyes. Diamonds are about H to I colours, VS clarity. Condition: Karat white and yellow gold mounts, all in very good condition.
