“With recent market volatility and uncertainty, some investors wishing to diversify their portfolios are looking to physical assets,” said Justin Miller of Miller & Miller Auctions, Ltd. “Quality watches and jewelry can make great investments, in part due to their portability and liquidity. At Miller & Miller our curated watches and jewelry may provide an investment opportunity for buyers looking for a piece to wear that can also serve as a store of value.”
The platinum diamond ring features an emerald cut, 9.22-carat center stone and two baguette shoulder stones. In addition to VS2 clarity, the ring is also graded M for color and Very Good for cut. It’s accompanied by a certificate of appraisal from Gem Scan of Toronto and carries a robust pre-sale estimate of $70,000-$80,000.
