EMERALD AND DIAMOND RING

Set with a square step-cut emerald weighing 5.06 carats, flanked on each side with a baguette diamond together weighing approximately 1.60 carats, mounted in platinum and 18 karat yellow gold.

Colour and Clarity: According to both the Gubelin and AGL reports, the emerald is natural, with no indication of clarity enhancement. Please refer to the reports for details. In our opinion, the emerald is of medium to medium dark, intense green colour, very clean to naked eyes. Under 10x loupe, there are some surface reaching inclusions and nicks close to a corner, but not seen to naked eyes. Diamonds are probably of G colour, VVS2 to VS1 clarity. Condition: Classic ring mount, in very good condition.
In response to your inquiry, we are pleased to provide you with a general report of the condition of the property described above. Since we are not professional conservators or restorers, we urge you to consult with a restorer or conservator of your choice who will be better able to provide a detailed, professional report. Prospective buyers should inspect each lot to satisfy themselves as to condition and must understand that any statement made by Sotheby's is merely a subjective qualified opinion. Illustrations in the catalogue may not be actual size. Prospective purchasers are reminded that, unless the catalogue description specifically states that a stone is natural, we have assumed that some form of treatment may have been used and that such treatment may not be permanent. Our presale estimates reflect this assumption.
NOTWITHSTANDING THIS REPORT OR ANY DISCUSSIONS CONCERNING CONDITION OF A LOT, ALL LOTS ARE OFFERED AND SOLD "AS IS" IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE CONDITIONS OF SALE PRINTED IN THE CATALOGUE.
