Prospective buyers bid on the understanding that, inevitably, representations or statements by us as to authorship, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or estimated selling price involve matters of opinion. We undertake that any such opinion shall be honestly and reasonably held and accept liability for opinions given negligently or fraudulently.

15.FORGERIES. Notwithstanding the preceding, any Lot which proves to be a deliberate forgery (as defined) may be returned to us by you within 12 months of the auction provided it is in the same condition as when bought, and is accompanied by particulars identifying it from the relevant catalogue description and a written statement of defects. If we are satisfied from the evidence presented that the Lot is a deliberate forgery we shall refund the money paid by you for the Lot including any buyer’s premium +VAT provided that the catalogue description reflected the accepted view of scholars and experts as at the date of sale.If you are personally not able to transfer a good and marketable title to us, you shall have no rights under this condition.
The right of return provided by this Condition is additional to any right or remedy provided by law or by these Conditions of Sale. We can only refund the amount you paid for the item irrespective of any other form of valuation.

Extra Information for Buyers:
Jewellery & Gemstones
Coloured Gemstones
Purchasers are advised that whilst great care has been taken in the examination of gemstones, it is not possible to test gemstones outside of laboratory conditions. Any gemstone not provided with a laboratory report has been assessed by RWB Auctions within the limitations of any mounting and an opinion has been given where possible.
Many coloured gemstones have been subjected to a variety of treatments designed to enhance their appearance. Certain enhancement methods, such as heating, are routinely used to alter aspects of rubies, sapphires, and other gemstones. Oiling is often undertaken to enhance the clarity of emeralds. The international jewellery trade has generally accepted these and other enhancement methods. Some treatments are permanent whereas others may only be semi-permanent, possibly requiring further re-treatment in order to retain their appearance.
Because of the widespread variety of treatments within the jewellery industry, prospective purchasers should assume that all gemstones will have been treated unless statements are made to the contrary. Gemmological reports from internationally recognised Gemmological Laboratories will be noted in the item description where available.
Diamonds
Advancements in technology have led to some diamonds being treated in a number of ways, all designed to improve their appearance or alter their colour. Processes include but are not necessarily limited to: fracture filling, laser drilling, a combination of drilling and filling, HPHT treatment, irradiation and various coatings. Buyers are also alerted to the fact that synthetic diamonds are now produced in large quantities. Whilst every effort is made to identify or disclose treated and synthetic goods, it is not possible for RWB Auctions to guarantee that all diamond set lots do not contain such material.
RWB Auctions do not knowingly offer treated diamonds for sale, unless a gemmological opinion disclosing the type of treatment has been obtained and the treatment would be stated within the item description.
Pearls
All lots containing pearls are untested and unwarranted as natural pearls
Weights and Measures
Estimated Diamond weights, colours and clarities are given by RWB Auctions are intended as guides for prospective purchasers, with the given limitations of mounts and settings, and are opinions only, not guaranteed by RWB Auctions.
Weights of coloured gemstones offered are extrapolated on the estimated dimensions, using trade standard formulae. Due to the traditional cutting techniques for coloured gemstones it is possible there may be discrepancy between the stated estimate and the unmounted weight.
RWB Auctions do not guarantee the standard of gold, silver or platinum unless an item is hallmarked. Results from electronically tested items should only be used as a guide and with caution, as false readings are possible.
Lengths and weights provided are estimates only.
