Sapphire, Ruby and Diamond Ring

Set with an oval sapphire weighing 8.49 carats, to a tapered baguette diamond scrolled shoulder, accented by circular-cut diamonds, together weighing approximately 1.40 carats, highlighted by a pear-shaped ruby, mounted in platinum. Ring size: 6

Colour and Clarity: According to GIA report, the oval sapphire is natural, of Ceylon origin, with no indication of heating. Please refer to the report for details. In our opinion, the sapphire is of medium blue colour, clean to both naked eyes and loupe check. Small ruby is of strong purplish red colour, eye clean. Diamonds are probably of G to H colours, VS clarity. Condition: This ring is offered without reserve. Platinum ring mount, in very good condition.
