In good condition, witih some light surface scratching commensurate with wear. The diamonds are approximately G-I color, VS-SI clarity. The rubies are a medium slightly purplish red, with some examples of a more pinkish hue, lightly to moderately included with some examples of surface-reaching inclusions and chipping at the girdles. Fitted with two safety closures. Well-made, highly flexible, and lays nicely when worn. Accompanied by AGL report no.
