Both the rubies and sapphires are well-matched, lively and eye clean. Under the 10x loupe inspection, majority of the rubies are slightly included, some have minor to moderate typical inclusions with a few surface reaching, and most of the rubies with minor abrasions on the girdle but not visible to the naked eye. Majority of the sapphires are loupe-clean, some with minor typical inclusions. The diamonds are mainly about H to I colour (with some J colour), VS to SI clarity. Signed and numbered.
Condition: Necklace with platinum mount, both detachable pendants in karat white gold mount, and pair of earclips and ring with karat white and yellow gold mount. Overall in very good condition.
