#HVLcampaign ***This lot benefits from a reduced buyer's protection fee of 4.5% (instead of 9%) which will be arranged for the winning bidder after the closing of the auction.

At 1.80 carats, it is significantly larger than the standard 1-carat or 1.5-carat thresholds, giving it a massive presence on the hand without the exponential price leap that occurs once you cross the 2.00-carat mark. The Color: F (Colorless) As with the previous 1.46ct stone, an F color is technically colorless. In a Round Brilliant, this is the "ice" look. Side-by-Side: If you put this stone next to a D color, you would likely only see the difference if they were upside down on a white piece of paper. To the wearer, it is perfectly white. Metal Choice: Because it's colorless, it will look best in Platinum or White Gold. The Clarity: VVS2 You’ve moved from VVS1 to VVS2 (Very, Very Slightly Included 2). The Difference: In VVS1, inclusions are usually only visible from the pavilion (the bottom). In VVS2, they can be visible from the top (the table) under a microscope, but they are still pinpoint-sized and completely invisible to the eye. Important Information for Buyers: 1. Customs and Import Fees: ○ Your country of residence may impose additional customs and import fees. These fees are the sole responsibility of the buyer. ○ The VAT is not included in the price of the stone as it depends on your country’s laws. ○ How to pay VAT?
