PINK SAPPHIRE AND DIAMOND RING

Set with a cushion-shaped pink sapphire weighing 6.54 carats, within a surround of pear-shaped diamonds, supported by a basket micro-pavé-set with brilliant-cut diamonds extending to the shank, the diamonds together weighing approximately 2.60 carats, mounted in 18 karat white gold.

Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the pink sapphire is natural, with no indication of thermal treatment. Please refer to the report for details. In our opinion, this pink sapphire is of highly saturated, purple pink colour, extremely clean. Under 10x loupe, there is only a small chip on its girdle, otherwise very clean. Nice cutting gives extraordinary good brilliance. Diamonds in the surround are probably of E to F colours, VVS to VS clarity. Condition: Very fine ring mount, in mint condition.
