Description
- garnet, diamond, gold
Centring on a cushion-shaped tsavorite garnet weighing 7.07 carats, to a stylised mount set with circular-cut and pear-shaped diamonds together weighing approximately 2.40 carats, mounted in 18 karat yellow gold.
Condition
Colour and Clarity: Accompanied by two GRS reports, one before mounting and the other after mounting. According to both GRS reports, the tsavorite garnet is natural, with no indication of treatments. The later report states that this tsavorite garnet comes from East Africa. Please refer to the reports for details. In our opinion, the tsavorite garnet is of vibrant, vivid green colour, very clean to naked eyes and loupe check, lively. Diamonds are about H to J colours, VS clarity.
Condition: Karat gold ring mount, in mint condition
