The diamond has an excellent clarity grade of VS2. Even under 10x magnification, it is difficult to find any inclusions. Graded L-M for color, the diamond shows just a hint of warmth which blends into the yellow gold. Mounted in the ring, it is difficult to notice any color. Part of its antique charm, the subtle color is typical of diamonds mined in the 1800s due to the locations of the early mines in the Cape region back when London and Antwerp were the center of the diamond trading world. Cut by hand during the Victorian era, the diamond’s wide facets display bright and bold sparkle as well as vividly colorful flashes of fire. It is an amazing example of an old mine cut diamond with an impeccable elongated cushion shape! The setting is solid 14k yellow gold. The ring measures 7.3mm across (north south) and 4.9mm from finger to top.
