Condition Report
Overall condition good. There are slight scratches to the brooch in keeping with the age of the brooch. The cultured pearl is off round with visible blemishes, the cultured pearl has a cream body colour and quite a dull lustre. The diamonds are bright, they are both drawing yellow, individual size and/or setting prevents accurate colour/clarity assessment.
The sapphires appear quite hazy, there is significant easily visible angular colour zoning to the one and patches of white, there is an easily visible inclusion beneath the table facet of the other. The back pin and catch is secure, the catch has possibly been replaced. Please see the Important Notices for Purchasers in our catalogue for coloured gemstones. Unhallmarked.
