Centring on an oval sapphire weighing 7.72 carats, enhanced with circular-cut diamonds on each end, flanked by two trapeze-shaped diamonds, the diamonds together weighing approximately 2.00 carats, mounted in 18 karat white gold. Ring size: 6

Colour and Clarity: According to both SSEF and GRS reports, the sapphire is natural, of Burmese origin, with no indications of heating. Please refer to the reports for details. In our opinion, the sapphire is of saturated blue colour, eye clean with lively brilliance. Upon 10x loupe, there are fine needle inclusions and a few crystals, not seen to naked eyes. Two trape diamonds are about I colour, VS2 clarity; other round diamonds are probably of Gto H colour, VS clarity. Condition: Karat white gold ring mount, in very good condition.
