Purchasing information
  • Overall condition good. Some surface wear in keeping with general wear.
  • Clasp is composite, the silver-fronted gem-set panel dates from the late 19th century, with later back panel clasp fitting and tongue.
  • Some replacement stones.

  • Sapphires with moderate to slightly dark colour saturation. Fairly good clarity with typical inclusions.
  • Gemstones in fair to good condition with some abrasion and nicks.
  • Please see Important Notices for Purchasers in our catalogue or on our website for coloured gemstones.
  • Due to the nature of the rose-cut it is not possible to calculate an accurate total rose-cut diamond weight.
  • Diamonds fairly bright and well matched. Individual size prevents accurate colour/clarity assessment. Diamonds in fair condition with abrasion, significant nicks and chips.
  • Cultured pearls creamy colour, with rose and greenish overtones. Fairly good skins with some surface blemishes. Fairly good lustre. Slight differences in appearance. There are some gaps in the stringing, we would recommend re-stringing of the pearl strands. Without the aid of laboratory equipment, it has not been possible to determine if these cultured pearls are from a fresh or saltwater source.
  • Clasp tongue stamped 9ct.
