Purchasing information
    The brooch is in quite poor condition. There is serious blackened tarnishing to all of the brooch, this would need attention. Four diamond points are missing from the claws that surround the central principal diamond. The remaining diamonds vary in colour and clarity, some of the diamonds stand out to be tinted yellow. There is abrasion to the facet edges of some of the diamonds, others are chipped. The pin and catch is nice and secure, the safety chain is not original and has been replaced.
