DEMANTOID GARNET AND DIAMOND RING

Set with an oval demantoid garnet weighing approximately 9.10 carats, surrounded by circular old mine-cut diamonds, mounted in 18 karat white and yellow gold.

Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the oval demantoid garnet is of medium, intense yellowish green colour, with visible dispersion to face-up observation. Upon 10x loupe, the typical golden 'horse-tail' inclusions are seen within the table. Old-cut diamonds are about H to I colours, VS2 to SI clarity. Condition: It is extremely rare to have demantoid garnet over 8 carat size. Vintage ring mount shows signs of wear and abrasions, consistent to age and use, overall in good condition.
