Condition
CR 3.27.25-In my opinion regarding:
LOT 1146: Please note that I am not a gemologist nor a jeweler and cannot speak to the quality of the stones, from strictly visual and UV light examinations, I note that the belt is intact, all sterling appearing secure and tightly bound to the leather strap, which is in an overall good condition with some typical minor wear near the end tip commensurate with use, the silver with light tarnish that would benefit from a polish, all turquoise stones appear to be present and remain secure within respective settings, observation under UV light does not reveal chips or hairlines/ fractures to the stones, the turquoise having inherent natural inclusions, variations, and small spots of pitting – all appearing to be naturally occurringDetailed condition reports are not included in this catalog.
