Colour and Clarity: According to GRS report, the cabochon rubies are natural, of Burmese origin, with no indication of thermal treatment. Please refer to the report for details. In our opinion, the rubies are matching, of medium intense, purplish red colour, eye clean. Upon 10x loupe, there are natural inclusions, with surface reaching openings or fissures, but generally not noticeable to naked eyes. Diamonds are about G to H colours, VS clarity. Numbered A23466 to the catch. Condition: Platinum mount, with minor scratches to the metal, overall in very good condition.
