The complete circular pendant measures approximately 10.5 mm in diameter, excluding the suspension bail.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS - Jewellery type: Pendant necklace - Maker: Perna Laboratorio Orafo - Country of manufacture: Italy - Production location: Torre del Greco - Craftsmanship: Individually handcrafted - Chain material: Solid 18 kt yellow gold (750/1000) - Pendant material: Solid 14 kt yellow gold (585/1000) - Declared 18 kt chain weight: 1.10 g - Approximate 14 kt pendant gold weight: 1.00 g, calculated estimate - Total necklace weight: 2.46 g, including gemstones - Chain length: 45 cm - Complete pendant diameter: Approximately 10.5 mm, excluding bail - Central gemstone: Natural glass-filled ruby - Surrounding gemstones: 22 natural diamonds - Chain included: Yes - Hallmarks: Documented in the accompanying detailed photographs CENTRAL GEMSTONE – NATURAL GLASS-FILLED RUBY - Gemstone: Natural ruby (corundum), glass-filled - Quantity: 1 - Shape: Round - Cut: Faceted - Diameter: Approximately 7 mm - Colour: Red - Indicative dimensional weight: Approximately 1.60 ct - Treatment: Glass filling - Seller's treatment classification: Class III - Natural origin: Seller-declared - Geographical origin: Not independently established - Independent gemmological certificate: Not provided RUBY CHARACTERISTICS The central gemstone displays an attractive red colour and reflections created by its faceted surface. The ruby measures approximately 7 mm in diameter. The indicative weight of approximately 1.60 ct is based on dimensional comparisons with round faceted rubies of similar size and typical proportions. Because the gemstone remains mounted, its exact depth and directly measured carat weight are not available. Furthermore, the presence of glass filling may influence the relationship between its dimensions and actual weight. The stated ruby weight is therefore an approximate dimensional estimate and not a certified or directly measured carat weight. IMPORTANT RUBY TREATMENT DISCLOSURE THE CENTRAL RUBY IS NATURAL, WITH GLASS-FILLING TREATMENT, AS DECLARED BY THE SELLER. The gemstone has undergone glass filling, a treatment commonly used to improve the apparent clarity and visual appearance of fractured ruby material. This treatment is expressly disclosed for complete transparency. Glass filling is a significant enhancement and must not be confused with conventional heat-only treatment. The gemstone is not represented as untreated, unheated or equivalent in durability and commercial value to an untreated fine-quality ruby. The precise composition and quantity of the glass filler have not been independently determined. Depending on the extent of the treatment, heavily glass-filled material may be classified by gemmological laboratories as a ruby-glass composite. No independent laboratory classification of the glass content is claimed. The seller also identifies the treatment as Class III; this designation is not presented as an independently verified or universally standardised gemmological grade. The buyer is expressly informed of the treatment and its implications for gemstone care and durability. NATURAL DIAMONDS - Gemstones: Natural diamonds - Quantity: 22 - Shape: Round - Approximate diameter: 1.20 mm each - Estimated individual weight: Approximately 0.0075 ct - Estimated combined weight: Approximately 0.165 ct, rounded to 0.17 ct - Origin: Natural, not laboratory-grown - Arrangement: Circular halo surrounding the central ruby DIAMOND WEIGHT INFORMATION The estimated combined diamond weight has been calculated using standard dimensional references for round diamonds of comparable diameter and typical cutting proportions. The diamonds remain mounted and have not been individually removed and weighed. Their actual combined weight may vary according to individual cutting proportions and depths. The estimated combined diamond weight is approximately 0.17 ct and has not been independently certified. No unverified diamond colour, clarity or cut grades are claimed. TRADITIONAL ITALIAN ARTISANAL CRAFTSMANSHIP This necklace was individually created by PERNA LABORATORIO ORAFO, an independent artisan goldsmith's workshop located in Torre del Greco, Italy. The design combines two different gold finenesses within a harmonious composition. The solid 18 kt yellow gold chain provides a delicate and elegant foundation, while the solid 14 kt yellow gold pendant features a traditional circular gemstone arrangement. The central glass-filled natural ruby is secured within a yellow gold setting and surrounded by 22 natural diamonds. The decorative diamond halo adds brilliance and enhances the appearance of the central red gemstone. The complete pendant measures approximately 10.5 mm in diameter, offering a refined and balanced appearance. Particular attention has been given to the proportions, precious-metal construction, gemstone settings and overall finishing. The necklace reflects the character of traditional Italian artisan goldsmithing. Its individual workshop production distinguishes it from conventional mass-produced jewellery. PRECIOUS METALS, WEIGHTS AND HALLMARKS The necklace combines two solid yellow gold alloys of different finenesses. SOLID 18 KT YELLOW GOLD – 750/1000 Used for the complete necklace chain. - Chain length: 45 cm - Declared chain weight: Approximately 1.10 g SOLID 14 KT YELLOW GOLD – 585/1000 Used for the circular pendant and its gold components. - Approximate gold weight: 1.00 g, calculated estimate The approximate pendant gold weight has been derived by subtracting the chain weight and the indicative gemstone weights from the total necklace weight. Because the actual ruby weight has not been directly determined, this calculated gold weight must also be considered provisional. It does not constitute a separate direct weighing of the 14 kt gold components. COMPLETE NECKLACE Total weight: 2.46 grams, including all mounted gemstones. The weighing photograph documents the complete necklace. The precious-metal hallmarks are documented in the accompanying detailed photographs. The chain and pendant have different gold finenesses, which are expressly distinguished in this description. The necklace is not represented as an item made entirely from 18 kt gold. CONDITION AND PHOTOGRAPHIC DOCUMENTATION The necklace is offered in the condition shown in the accompanying photographs. Please carefully examine all images, including detailed views of the glass-filled ruby, natural diamonds, yellow gold settings, chain, clasp, suspension bail and precious-metal hallmarks. The photographs form an integral part of the description and provide important information regarding the actual appearance, construction and condition of the jewellery. Minor surface characteristics, reflections, polishing marks or details of individual handcrafted finishing may be visible under magnification. SPECIAL CARE INSTRUCTIONS The central ruby has undergone glass-filling treatment and requires particular care. Glass-filled gemstones may be more sensitive than untreated rubies to certain cleaning methods, chemical products and jewellery repair procedures. To preserve the appearance and integrity of the central gemstone: - Avoid ultrasonic cleaning. - Avoid steam cleaning. - Avoid acids and aggressive jewellery-cleaning chemicals. - Avoid excessive heat and sudden temperature changes. - Avoid mechanical impacts. - Clean gently using a soft, slightly damp cloth. - Inform any jeweller performing future repairs that the ruby is glass-filled. The filling material may be affected by inappropriate cleaning or repair procedures.
