Purchasing information-
The lot is in good overall condition with light scratches in keeping with general wear. Cultured pearls are a creamy yellow hue with varying overtones and fairly well matched lustre. The diamonds appear bright and well matched. Individual diamonds too small to accurately assess colour/clarity grades. Please see important notices for purchasers in the catalogue and on our website for Coloured Gemstones. The opal displays a good play of colour across a range of hues. Thin patch of white cloudiness down the length of the cabochon. Moderate abrasion. The opal is set at a slight angle. Section of claws deficient to the mount, remaining claws with wear, may require attention. Wear to the back of the clasp. Restringing recommended.
