Diamond and sapphire ring

Set with a step-cut diamond,  within a frame of calibré-cut sapphires, the shoulders accented with single-cut diamonds, size 57.

In our experts' opinion, the step-cut diamond measuring approximately 13.95 x 8.53 x 4.62mm and calculated to weigh approximately 5.10 - 5.50 carats, is K top light brown colour, VS clarity, as gauged and graded in the mounting. Calibré-cut sapphires well matched in colour, with typical inclusions, abrasions and nicks consistent with age and use. Single-cut diamonds bright and lively. Signs of normal wear to the metal, evidence of resizing. In good condition. Gross weight approximately 6 grams.
