Lot 24
Of cluster design, centring a claw-set oval cabochon black opal measuring approximately 13mm x 8mm, framed by a halo of pavé-set brilliant-cut diamonds, the diamonds together weighing approximately 0.54 carats, mounted in 18ct white gold and platinum, size L1/2, gross weight approximately 4.4 grams.
Estimate $3,000 - $5,000
In our opinion, the black opal displays good play of colour, with flashes of red, orange, green and blue, minor scratch to the surface. The diamonds are bright and lively, probably of G-H colour and VS to SI clarity, as gauged and graded within the limitations of the cutting style and the mounting.
The mounting displays minor scratches commensurate with age and wear.
The ring is of good workmanship with signs of wear consistent with age and use, not noticeable when worn.
Overall condition is very good.
