Centring on a step-cut emerald weighing 3.05 carats, delicately set within a basket of micro pavé-set brilliant-cut and pear-shaped rose-cut diamonds, extending to the shank, the diamonds together weighing approximately 1.45 carats, mounted in 18 karat white gold.
Condition
Colour and Clarity: According to GRS report, the emerald is natural, with no indication of clarity enhancement. Please refer to the report for details. In our opinion, the emerald is of vivid green colour, very clean to naked eyes with only a few minor crystal inclusions under 10x check. This clarity and colour combination is considered rare among natural untreated emeralds. The diamonds are probably of E to F colours, VS clarity for pear-shaped rose-cut diamonds and VS to SI for the tiny rounds.
Condition: Detailed and exquisite setting, in mint condition.
