$1,750
in an archaic style, consisting of numerous bezel set round mixed cut sapphires and emeralds above a textured surface accented with applied beaded wirework. Stamp: A.21 750 (maker's mark for Lalaounis). 13.60 dwts. This ring measures an approximate size 7 3/4". It extends approximately 1 3/4" long, and this extension measures approximately 3/8" wide. The ring size has an expandable split shank therefore allowing the ring to increase in ring size. The sapphires in the ring are of blue hue, dark tone, and moderate to moderately strong saturation. The stones have low to moderate clarity. The stones show very minor wear under 10X magnification, with one of the central sapphires showing an internal fracture through the table crown and a small section of stone from the table is gone. The emeralds are green hue, medium in tone, moderate in saturation, with noticeable inclusions.
