Lot 189
Of ornate chandelier design, set throughout with collet-set oval-cut rubies and similarly set brilliant-cut diamonds, embellished with red enamel, the diamonds together weighing approximately 1.40 carats, to shepherd hook fittings, length 70mm, gross weight approximately 18.3 grams.
Estimate $2,000 - $3,000
In our opinion the rubies are slightly purplish red hue, deep moderate saturation, with typical inclusions. Some minor abrasions to facet junctions. The diamonds are bright and lively, probably of H to I colour and SI to pique clarity, as gauged and graded within the limitations of the cutting style and the mounting. Enamel intact. The mounting displays scratches commensurate with age and wear.
The earrings are of very good workmanship with signs of wear consistent with age and use.
Overall condition is very good.
