Lot 124
An 18-carat white-gold large rubellite and diamond cluster ringApprox. dimensions are: approx. 15mm high x approx. 13mm wide across the face x approx. 7mm deep. An estimate as it is in a claw work setting. Under a x 10 lense there appears to be several very small inclusions within the stone although these aren’t visible with the naked eye. A very good ring overall with a nice colour central stone. The diamonds appear quite bright around the oval rubellite stone and set it off very well. The other stones around the claw settings and on the shoulders although small are generally of good quality. Although not exactly “bright white” are still good enough to present the ring in a very good light. Generally good condition but under a loupe very minor surface scratches can be seen to some of the metal otherwise in very good overall original condition with no problems, repairs or damage noted. Weight approx. 10.10g. Ring size O
