Description
- Sapphire, Diamond, Platinum
Set with a step-cut sapphire weighing 7.19 carats, flanked on each side by an emerald-cut diamond weighing 1.06 and 1.01 carats respectively, mounted in platinum. Ring size: 6
Condition
Please note that the colour variety of the sapphire may also be called "royal blue" in the trade, which was not mentioned in the catalogue.
Colour and Clarity: According to the Gübelin and SSEF reports, the sapphire is natural, of Burmese origin, with no indications of heating, and Gübelin report further states that the colour variety may also be called "royal blue" in the trade; and according to two GIA reports, the 1.06 and 1.01 carat emerald-cut diamonds are both D Colour, Internally Flawless and VS1 Clarity respectively. Please refer to the reports for details. In our opinion, the sapphire is medium-strong vivid blue colour, very lively and eye clean. Under the 10x loupe inspection, there are very minor fingerprint and silk inclusions, and all are not visible to the naked eye.
Condition: Platinum ring mount, overall in mint condition.
