  Overall condition fair to good. Some surface scratches/ wear, discolouration and minor dents in keeping with general age and wear. Slight dent to the side of the piece, at the clasp, appearing slightly misaligned in profile. Small repairs, slight discolouration. Seed pearls untested for natural origin. Seed pearls approximately 3.3mms diameter. Seed pearls differ slightly in shape with well matched colour and lustre, slight internal cracks to some, general slight wear. Diamonds well matched. Individual size and setting of diamonds prevents accurate colour and clarity assessment. Emeralds are a fairly well matched deep medium slightly bluiosh green hue.

Condition reports are offered as a guide only and we highly recommend inspecting any lot to satisfy yourself as to its condition.
