Purchasing information-
Overall condition fair. Some surface wear in keeping with general wear. Composite piece. Oval-shape photo panel possibly dates from the late 19th century. Split pearl surmount and diamond fly possibly date from the early 20th century. Re-enamelled. Enamel chipped and peeling away. Soft solder to the reverse of the surmount. Later replacement surmount back component, suspension loop and chain. Split pearls creamy colour, some replacements, glue residue. Fairly good skins with some wear. Gemstone to the centre of the split pearl flower significantly abraded. Diamonds fairly well matched. Due to the nature of the rose-cut it is not possible to calculate a total diamond weight. Based on the surface spread alone, they appear to occupy the same surface space as diamonds with an estimated total weight of 0.20ct, however this does not reflect the true weight of the diamonds in any way. Diamonds in good condition with minor abrasion and some nicks.
