PERIDOT AND DIAMOND RING

Centring on a cushion-shaped peridot weighing approximately 40.00 carats, amid a stylised frame set with baguette and brilliant-cut diamonds together weighing approximately 3.70 carats, mounted in 18 karat white gold.

Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the peridot is of strong, yellowish green colour, in medium to medium deep tone. The peridot is very clean internally, with only surface blemishes as scratches and abrasions to facet junctions which are consistent to age and use, and only observed under 10x loupe. The diamonds are probably of F to G colours, mostly VS clarity, except a few rounds may be of SI1 clarity. Condition: Heavy and showy ring mount, with signs of wear; otherwise in good condition.
