Condition
Colour and Clarity: According to GRS report, the cushion-shaped spessartite garnet is natural, of vivid orange-yellow, with no indication of treatment. Please refer to the report for details. In our opinion, the spessartite garnet is of intense saturation, has very good brilliance, very clean that only a small transparent feather and minor inclusion to the side on pavilion is visible under 10x loupe with careful check. Side diamonds are about F to G colours, VS clarity. Signed "Agapoff" to the shank.
Condition: In mint condition.
