Condition

Colour and Clarity: According to the GRS report, the emerald is natural, of Colombian origin, with indication of minor clarity enhancement. In our opinion, the emerald is light-medium tone and green colour, with high and rounded dome. Under the 10x loupe inspection, there are typical fingerprint inclusions with some surface reaching, and minor chips and pits on the dome and base but not noticeable to the naked eye. The diamonds together weighing approximately 2.00 carats. The marquise-shaped diamonds are about F to G colour, the circular-cut and baguette diamonds are about G to H colour (with some I to J colour), all are about VS to SI clarity. Condition: Karat yellow gold with partial rhodium-plated white, shows signs of minor wear, otherwise in very good overall condition.
