Description
- platinum, emerald, diamond, ring
The emerald-cut emerald weighing approximately 7.50 carats, flanked by small single-cut and rose-cut diamonds weighing approximately .25 carat, size 6, signed Cartier, numbered 2445.
Condition
Good condition with wear to mounting commensurate with age. The deep green emerald is two shades darker than indicated by the printed catalogue illustration; heavily included. Measures approximately 14.2 x 13.2 mm; the shallow depth makes it appear larger than its approximate weight of 7.50 carats. The 46 small single- and rose-cut diamonds are near colorless and decorative in quality. Signed Cartier on the side of the shoulder. Numbered on the shank interior.
