Upon 10x loupe, there are natural crystal and fingerprint inclusions, and some stones have surface abrasions and tiny chips on girdle, generally not noticeable to naked eyes. Diamonds are about G to H colours, VS2 to SI2 clarity.
Condition: Platinum and karat yellow gold mounts, all in very good condition.
