PAIR OF RUBELLITE AND DIAMOND EAR CLIPS

Each centring on an oval rubellite altogether weighing approximately 20.00 carats, within a surround pavé-set with brilliant-cut diamonds altogether weighing approximately 3.40 carats, mounted in 18 karat white gold, clip and post fittings, accompanied by pendant hooks.

Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the two rubellites are medium to medium dark, saturated plum red colour, very clean to naked eyes and lively stones. Under 10x loupe and careful check, there are only a few minor inclusions, mostly close to the side. Diamonds in the surround are probably of I to J colours, VS clarity. Condition: Classic design, in very good condition.
