In response to your inquiry, we are pleased to provide you with a general report of the condition of the property described above.

拍品資料及來源

附美國GIA證書,編號2175733898,指出鑽石為D色,VS1淨度。附一份GIA信函,指出此鑽石屬 Type IIa。

裝飾藝術設計是張狂形體與內斂蘊藉的平衡。其時的寶石,無論在魯爾曼的櫃中,還是喬治·傑森的調酒器,抑或在克里斯勒的大樓中覓得,均保持這種平衡,線條克制,用色內斂。二十及三十年代,珠寶商運用方形寶石詮釋此美學,包括現在的經典方形及長形切割,有時更用於彩色寶石之上。

此枚戒指,正因簡單,更顯出色驚人。此顆方形鑽石,兩旁鑲直排藍寶石,觀者視線莫不受其吸引。鑽石外表潔白無瑕,或因內裡全不含氮元素,達標者即為最珍稀的Type IIa。世上最著名的鑽石,均為Type IIa,當中「光之山」可謂最著名典例,它在數世紀前被發現於傳奇的戈爾康達礦山(Golconda)。
