Condition
Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the sapphires are about medium to medium deep blue colour, eye clean. Upon 10x loupe, there are a few natural inclusions in some sapphires and small nicks at facet corners, not noticable even under loupe check. Diamonds are about H to J colours, VS clarity.
Condition: Karat yellow gold mounts, minor discolouration to the metal on ring, earclips and necklace, but generally on the back or the side, not seen to the obverse; signs of minor wear, overall in good condition.
