Condition
Colour and Clarity: According to GRS report, all emeralds are natural, of Colombian origin. Emerald on the ring and one of the emeralds on earrings have indication of insignificant clarity enhancement. The other emerald on earrings has indication of minor clarity enhancement. Please refer to the reports for details. In our opinion, the emeralds are of bright, intense green colour, slightly included to naked eyes. Upon 10x loupe, there are some natural inclusions, which are very common to natural emerald. Diamonds are about F to H colours, VVS to VS clarity.
Condition: Platinum and karat yellow gold mounts, all in very good condition.
