Lot 244: A 9ct Gold Solitaire Ring, Claw Set With a Round Brilliant Cut Stone
A 9ct gold solitaire ring, featuring a single large round brilliant cut colorless stone. The central stone is held within a six-prong setting of tiffany-style design, mounted upon a tapered shank that narrows towards the setting. The band is of solid construction with a polished finish. There are hallmark punches visible on the interior of the shank, although the specific characters are not clearly legible. No other maker’s marks, signatures, or labels are visible on the item.
Ring Size: UK N (US 6.5).
Condition report:
The ring shows signs of significant wear and daily use. The metal shank exhibits heavy surface abrasions, scratches, and a dulling of the luster across the exterior surface (photo 1 and 2). The central stone appears dull with a significant accumulation of surface grime and debris, and there are visible dark internal characteristics or inclusions when viewed through the table (photo 1). The prongs appear intact but would benefit from professional cleaning and inspection.
