Centring on a cushion-shaped sapphire weighing 6.56 carats, to shoulders set with tapered diamonds, mounted in platinum. Ring size: 5¾
Condition
Colour and Clarity: According to SSEF report, the cushion sapphire is natural, of Burmese origin, with no indications of heating, of "Royal Blue" colour. Please refer to the report for details. In our opinion, the sapphire is of strong blue colour, eye clean, good live. Upon 10x loupe, there are only a few minute natural inclusions, not even noticeable to loupe check. Diamonds are about F to G colours, VS clarity.
Condition: Platinum ring mount, in very good condition.
