Description
Centring on a square radiant-cut fancy yellow diamond weighing 10.53 carats, flanked on each side with a heart-shaped diamond of similar colour weighing 1.31 and 1.27 carats respectively, within frames decorated with brilliant-cut yellow diamonds extending to the basket and shank, mounted in 18 karat yellow gold.
Condition
Colour and Clarity: All three large yellow diamonds are certified and natural. According to GIA report, the centre diamond is of Fancy Yellow colour, VVS2 clarity. HRD reports also state that the two heart-shaped yellow diamonds are of Fancy Yellow colour, and one is VVS1 clarity. Please refer to the reports for details. In our opinion, the other yellow diamond is probably of VS2 to SI1 clarity which has a feather on girdle and not noticeable even under 10x loupe. All principle diamonds in yellow gold mount show noticeable, medium yellow colour. Tiny yellow diamonds together weighing approximately 0.85 carat, are about medium strong yellow colour, VS to SI clarity.
Condition: Simple karat gold ring mount, in mint condition.
