  • saphpire, diamond, gold
Centring on a cushion-shaped sapphire weighing 23.02 carats, to shoulders set with brilliant-cut diamonds, mounted in 18 karat white gold.

Condition

Colour and Clarity: According to Gübelin and GRS reports, the sapphire is natural, of Burmese origin, with no indication of thermal enhancement, of "royal blue" colour. Also accompanied by a GRS Platinum Award stating that the sapphire has an "extremely rare combination of size over 23 cts, magnificent royal blue color with brilliant reflection pattern, and extremely fine clarity." Please refer to the reports and award for details. In our opinion, the sapphire is of deep, strong blue colour, very clean to both naked eyes and loupe check. Diamonds together weighing approximately 0.50 carat, are about G to H colour, VS clarity. Condition: Karat white gold ring mount, 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.
