Sapphire and Diamond Bracelet

Composed of seventeen oval sapphires together weighing approximately 18.00 carats, spaced by marquise-shaped diamonds, mounted in 18 karat white gold, length approximately 145mm.

Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the sapphires are of medium deep to deep tone, intense blue to saturated violetish blue colour. Under the 10x loupe inspection, there are minor to noticeable typical fingerprint and silk inclusions and some are surface reaching, a few sapphires with colour-zoning, and all with occasional pits and tiny chips but not visible to the naked eye. The marquise-shaped diamonds together weighing approximately 2.00 carats, are about H to I colour, VS to SI clarity. Condition: Karat white gold mount, shows signs of slight discolouration at the clasp, with minor wear otherwise overall condition is very good.
