Purchasing information
  • Due to the amount of items in this lot we are unable to give an in depth condition report for each item however the overall condition of the items can be described as good to fair.

  • Without the aid of laboratory equipment, it has not been possible to determine if these cultured pearls are from a fresh or saltwater source.

  • Prospective buyers are advised that several countries prohibit altogether the importation of property containing such materials, and that other countries require a permit (e.g., a CITES permit) from the relevant regulatory agencies in the countries of exportation as well as importation. The sale of ivory, tortoiseshell and other materials derived from endangered species is limited by CITES regulations to 'worked' pieces dating prior to 1947, and the export of such pieces outside the EU would require an export licence to be obtained from DEFRA.

  • The US prohibits the importation of items containing rubies or jadeite originating in Burma. For your convenience we have applied this notice to lots which contain rubies or jadeite originating in Burma, or those of indeterminate origin. Please be advised that inability of a purchaser to import any such item into the US or elsewhere will not constitute grounds for non-payment or cancellation of the sale.

  • Please see the Important Notices for Purchasers in our catalogue or on our website for coloured gemstones.

  • *THIS LOT WILL CARRY VAT AT 20% ON THE HAMMER PRICE.
