MCKINNEY TANZANITE AND DIAMOND RING
Of cluster design, centring a collet-set cushion-shaped tanzanite, weighing approximately 8.30 carats, framed by pavé-set brilliant-cut diamonds, to shoulders similarly set, the diamonds together weighing approximately 1.60 carats, mounted in 18ct yellow and white gold, size N1/2, gross weight approximately 13.5 grams.

Accompanied by:
McKinney's Retail Replacement document dated 20 February 2024;
a Margot McKinney's box.

Estimate $7,000 - $10,000

Sold for $7,000

In our opinion, the tanzanite is of violetish blue hue of vivid saturation, relatively eye-clean, some abrasions and scratches to facet junctions. The diamonds are bright and lively probably of G to H colour and SI clarity as gauged and graded within the limitations of the cutting style and the mounting. The mounting has wear to the metal in the form of minor scratches.

The ring is of very good workmanship with signs of wear consistent with age and use, not noticeable when worn.

Overall condition is very good
