Description

  • Tiffany & Co.
  • platinum, diamond, onyx, ring
Set with an emerald-cut diamond weighing approximately 2.05 carats, framed by old European-cut and single-cut diamonds weighing approximately .40 carat, accented by buff-topped onyx segments, size 6, signed Tiffany & Co.

Condition

In very good condition but shows signs of wear commensurate with age and use. Center diamond is approximately E-F color and VS clarity (possibly SI due to minor chips on the underside of 2 corners). Very lively stone. The remaining 86 old European-cut and single-cut diamonds are bright. There are minor losses and chipping to the onyx segments visible under magnification.
In response to your inquiry, we are pleased to provide you with a general report of the condition of the property described above. Since we are not professional conservators or restorers, we urge you to consult with a restorer or conservator of your choice who will be better able to provide a detailed, professional report. Prospective buyers should inspect each lot to satisfy themselves as to condition and must understand that any statement made by Sotheby's is merely a subjective qualified opinion. Illustrations in the catalogue may not be actual size. Prospective purchasers are reminded that, unless the catalogue description specifically states that a stone is natural, we have assumed that some form of treatment may have been used and that such treatment may not be permanent. Our presale estimates reflect this assumption.
