More Information

Overall condition is good. All stones are present. All the rubies are in tact, no chips or losses visible. All diamonds are in tact, no chips or losses. There is wear to the claws on the stones, ranging from minor to heavy, but the majority are in tact. There is some areas of splitting and denting to the setting, but no signs of repair. There is some denting/misshaping to the shank (see pictures for illustration), but no splitting or signs of repair.

The head measures 14mm x 9mm. The head does appear to be original to the shank, though there are visible seams where the head meets the shank (see pictures for illustration). Diamonds measure between 0.8mm and 1.5mm. We advise that all interested bidders view this lot in person before bidding where possible.
