EMERALD AND DIAMOND RING

Centring on a cushion-shaped cabochon emerald weighing 37.85 carats, surrounded by brilliant-cut diamonds together weighing approximately 1.40 carats, mounted in 18 karat white gold.

Colour and Clarity: According to GRS report, the cabochon emerald is natural, of Colombian origin, with insignificant clarity enhancement. Please refer to the report for details. In our opinion, the emerald is of medium, strong green colour, slightly included to naked eyes but very lively stone. Upon 10x loupe, there are some natural inclusions and a few surface pits, but generally not noticeable when worn. Diamonds are about G to H colours, VS clarity. Condition: Very fine workmanship and delicate ring mount, in mint condition.
