Condition
Colour and Clarity: According to GRS reports, the spessartite garnets are natural, with no indication of treatment. Please refer to the reports for details. In our opinion, the spessartite garnets are matching, of vivid yellowish-orange colour, very clean to both naked eyes and loupe check, lively stones with good brilliance. The larger cushion-cut diamonds are about J to K colours, VVS2 to VS clarity. Other tiny diamonds are about I to J colours, similar clarity.
Condition: Very fine settings, both in mint condition.
