Condition

In good condition. The setting shows some signs of wear with minor abrasions to the back of the ring shank consistent with normal wear. The slightly included emerald displays a medium light, slightly bluish green hue with a surface reaching inclusion visible toward the girdle. The diamonds are approximately J-K color, and predominantly SI clarity with light chipping to the girdle. Please note that this ring is centered by an emerald-cut emerald weighing approximately 3.75 carats and not an emerald-cut diamond as stated in the printed catalogue. Accompanied by AGL report no. CS35296-1 stating that the emerald is of Colombian origin, clarity enhancement: faint, type: oil.
