Each designed as oscillating scrolls set with brilliant-cut diamonds and rubies altogether weighing approximately 9.00 and 10.00 carats respectively, mounted in platinum, maker's mark of Jacques Timex (for Harry Winston) and numbered 7369.
Condition
Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the rubies are of matching, intense red colour, slightly included to eye clean. Under 10x loupe, most of the rubies show tiny surface chips and nicks along facet junctions, which are not seen to naked eyes. The round diamonds are probably of F to G colours, VS clarity. Clip fittings, with import mark for Harry Winston.
Condition: General signs of wear and abrasions to the mount, otherwise in good condition.
