Condition
Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the centre aquamarine is of light blue colour with a slightly greenish tint, and eye clean. Under the 10x loupe inspection, there are minor pits on the facet junctions and girdle but not noticeable to the naked eyes, and also with some minor chips on the table. The sapphires are of light to medium blue colour, with typical inclusions and some with minor chips and pits on facets and abrasion on the facet junctions, but all are not noticeable to the naked eyes. The buff-top pink sapphires are of medium intense purplish pink colour. The buff-top amethysts are of light to medium reddish purple to purple colour, and a few with chips on the dome top but not noticeable to the naked eye. The diamonds are about E to F colour, VVS to VS clarity. Signed and numbered, and with French assay mark for gold.
Condition: Karat white gold ring mount. Show signs of normal wear and the shank with minor indentations. One pink sapphire strawberry with slight defect, and two amethysts deficient. Overall condition is good.
