Under very close inspection and penlight, there are streaks of emerald green and some minor brownish inclusions, not noticeable when worn. The diamonds are probably about F-H colour, VS clarity, one round diamond about J, SI clarity, the diamonds together weighing approximately 2.60 carats. Condition: In very good condition.
