IMPORTANT EMERALD AND DIAMOND RING

Centring on an oval emerald weighing 13.76 carats, flanked on each side by a half moon-shaped diamond together weighing approximately 1.60 carats, mounted in platinum.

Colour and Clarity: According to SSEF report, the oval emerald is natural, of Colombian origin, with no indications of clarity modification. Please refer to the report for details. In our opinion, the emerald has a nice cutting proportion and girdle outline, of medium and brilliant, intense green colour, very slightly included to naked eyes. Under 10x loupe, there are a few minor inclusions close to a prong, but generally considered of good clarity for non-oiled Colombian emerald. Two half-moon diamonds are probably of I and J colours, VS clarity. Condition: Classic ring mount, in very good condition, almost as new.
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.

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.

Accompanied by SSEF report numbered 49416, dated 2 October 2007, stating that the 13.76 carat emerald is natural, of Colombian origin, with no indication of clarity modification.
