18 Karat Two-Color Gold, Aquamarine and Diamond Ring, Buccellati

Centered by a modified-cushion cut aquamarine weighing approximately 7.25 carats, accented by numerous round diamonds, size 5, signed Buccellati, three diamonds missing. With signed box.

In good condition. The aquamarine is a medium light, slightly greenish blue and the green modifying color is more evident than it appears in the printed catalogue. The stone is eye-clean with some chipping at the facet junctions. The ring is set high off the finger, in a split-shank mounting so it may be easily adjusted. One of the foliate motifs is slightly bent. The diamonds are near colorless and decorative in quality.
In response to your inquiry, we are pleased to provide you with a general report of the condition of the property described above. Since we are not professional conservators or restorers, we urge you to consult with a restorer or conservator of your choice who will be better able to provide a detailed, professional report. Prospective buyers should inspect each lot to satisfy themselves as to condition and must understand that any statement made by Sotheby's is merely a subjective qualified opinion. Illustrations in the catalogue may not be actual size. Prospective purchasers are reminded that, unless the catalogue description specifically states that a stone is natural, we have assumed that some form of treatment may have been used and that such treatment may not be permanent. Our presale estimates reflect this assumption.
