Description
- emerald, diamond, platinum
Centring on a cushion-shaped emerald weighing 6.00 carats, flanked on each side by an old mine brilliant-cut diamond weighing 2.42 and 2.40 carats, mounted in platinum. Ring size: 5¾
Condition
Colour and Clarity: According to both Gübelin and AGL reports, the cushion emerald is natural, of Colombian origin, with no indication of clarity enhancement. Two cushion-shaped diamonds, according to GIA reports, are matching, G colour, VS1 clarity. Please refer to the reports for details. In our opinion, the emerald is of medium strong green colour, eye clean. Upon 10x loupe, there are natural inclusions, mainly to the side, and one hairline fissue close to girdle, not seen to naked eyes. Two cushion diamonds have nice brilliance, and other tiny diamonds on shank are probably of similar quality.
Condition: Platinum ring mount, in very good condition.
