Description

  • coloured diamond, diamond, platinum, gold
Each suspending on a pear-shaped fancy yellow diamond weighing 8.50 and 8.09 carat respectively, to a surmount set with an inverted pear-shaped diamond weighing 2.01 and 1.89 carats respectively, mounted in platinum and 18 karat yellow gold.

Condition

Colour and Clarity: According to GIA reports, the two yellow diamonds are natural, of matching Fancy Yellow colour, VS1 and SI1 clarity respectively. Other two pear-shaped diamonds in the surmounts, are D and E colours, VS2 and VS1 clarity respectively. Please refer to the reports for details. In our opinion, the two yellow diamonds show a noticeable, medium intense yellow face-up hue, against an open-back setting, with good brilliance. Other tiny yellow diamonds are of intense saturation and colourless diamonds are probably of E to F colours, mostly VS clarity. Condition: Platinum and karat yellow gold mounts, in mint condition.
In response to your inquiry, we are pleased to provide you with a general report of the condition of the property described above. Since we are not professional conservators or restorers, we urge you to consult with a restorer or conservator of your choice who will be better able to provide a detailed, professional report. Prospective buyers should inspect each lot to satisfy themselves as to condition and must understand that any statement made by Sotheby's is merely a subjective qualified opinion. Illustrations in the catalogue may not be actual size. Prospective purchasers are reminded that, unless the catalogue description specifically states that a stone is natural, we have assumed that some form of treatment may have been used and that such treatment may not be permanent. Our presale estimates reflect this assumption.
