Colour and Clarity: According to GRS report, the two demantoid garnets are natural, with no indication of treatments. Please refer to the report for details. In our opinion, the demantoid garnets are matching, of medium dark, yellowish green colour, eye clean and lively. Upon 10x loupe, there are some natural crystal inclusions and one stone has surface nick on its crown, not seen to naked eyes. Diamonds are about J to K colours, mostly VS clarity. Condition: Karat gold mounts, in very good condition.
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.
