Purchasing information-
Overall condition good to fair. Surface scratches and discolouration in keeping with general wear and age. The turquoise is a later replacement with an even bright blue colour. The split pearls are well matched with a white body colour and fairly good lustre. Without the aid of laboratory equipment, it has not been possible to determine if these cultured pearls are from a fresh or saltwater source. Please see the Important Notices for Purchasers in our catalogue or on our website for coloured gemstones. The pendant and chain are stamped 9ct.
