Of floral motif, centring on a cushion-shaped yellow sapphire weighing 11.95 carats, highlighted by petals and leaves set with circular-cut yellow sapphires and brilliant-cut diamonds, extending to the shoulders, mounted in 18 karat white gold.
Condition
Colour and Clarity: According to the SSEF report, the yellow sapphire is natural, of Burmese origin, with no indications of heating. Please refer to the report for details. In our opinion, the yellow sapphire is of a brilliant medium yellow colour. Under 10x loupe and close inspection, there is a typical natural inclusion visible below the kite facet in the crown and close to a prong below the girdle, nick to one side of the girdle, all not noticeable to naked eyes. The surrounding yellow sapphires are of a light medium yellow colour, slightly abraded facets, and the diamonds are about G-H colours, VS clarity.
Condition: In very good condition.
