Condition Report
Overall condition good. The beads have discoloured in places in keeping with the age of the piece, there are some surface reaching cracks and natural imperfections to the ivory. Some of carved ivory beads are damaged with sections of petal detail broken off, this is not automatically noticeable unless looking for damage. The necklace may need to be restrung as there is gapping between the beads. The clasp is secure.
