Description

Of cluster design, each centring on an oval fancy yellow diamond weighing 2.32 and 2.13 carats respectively, surrounded by marquise-shaped diamonds altogether weighing approximately 4.65 carats, mounted in platinum and 18 karat yellow gold, clip and retractable post fittings.

Condition

Colour and Clarity: According to GIA reports, the diamonds are Fancy Yellow colour, one of VS1 clarity and the other in our opinion, SI1 clarity with a few dark inclusions to one corner under 10x loupe but which are not noticeable to naked eye. Please refer to the reports for details. The diamonds show a matching face-up colour of good saturation against an open back mounting. The diamonds in the surround are about F colour, VS clarity, and nicely arranged in a cluster surround setting. Condition: In mint condition.
