More Information

London 1977. Average colour estimated as G/H Average clarity estimated as VS1, ring size O, ring weight 5.1 grams. Latest insurance valuation from March 2017 was for £19,200.

We have shown this to one of our jewellery valuers who has made the following comments:

There is cut marks (nibbles) to all 3 stones that can be seen when studying the diamonds round the girdle.

The diamonds our valuer fairly described as ‘good but not excellent’, he did also comment that the report has perhaps been a little generous to the ring by the southern jewellers. Our jewellery would perhaps estimate the clarity as SI2 which he would describe as fair. The colour also as H/I so similar to what the report has suggested.

In terms of the weight, without de-mounting the diamonds, it would be hard to confirm the exact weight as we cant clearly see the depth of the ring so can only advise that the estimation of the ring from the insurance valuation would be correct but we couldn’t confirm for sure whilst the stones are mounted.
