Purchasing information-
Overall condition good. Surface scratches and discolouration in keeping with general wear and age. The mesh has slight kinks and bends. The probably replaced cultured pearls are fairly well matched with button-shapes and a slightly-creamy white colour with fair lustre showing some pink overtones. 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.
