Description
- Michael Youssoufian
Each composed of twelve oval pink spinels altogether weighing 27.40 carats, amid stylised frames of brilliant-cut diamonds extending to the surmount, embellished to the centre with rubies, pink sapphires and rose-cut diamonds altogether weighing approximately 0.95, 5.35 and 4.10 carats respectively, mounted in 18 karat white gold, clip and retractable post fittings.
Condition
Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the spinels are of intense to very strong, rose pink colour, very clean to naked eyes with good brilliance. Upon 10x loupe, some stones are slightly included with natural inclusions, which are not seen to naked eyes and do not affect the brilliance. Pink sapphires in the inner-circle and centre are of intense to deep, purple-pink colour, eye clean. Rubies are intense red and eye clean. Rose- and brilliant-cut diamonds are probably of G to H colours, VS clarity.
Condition: Pair of dressy earrings with impressive size and colours, in mint condition.
