Condition: Overall in great antique condition. The ring shank is slightly asymmetrical (i.e. not a perfect circle). There’s some tarnish to the silver foiling underneath the diamond (smoked mirror effect; spots of gray). The ring has been sized up before; the very back of the shank contains some later added gold. There is light surface scratches and wear to the enamel. Expect some general age-related surface wear to the gold.
