Condition Report
The bangle is in overall fair condition. There are slight scratches to the bangle in keeping with the age of the piece. All of the sapphires appear quite hazy and translucent, the central has easily visible angular colour zoning and one of the outer stones visible silk when the sapphire is turned. The profuse inclusions affect the light transmission throughout the stones. Nearly all of the diamond points are chipped and fairly dull. The clasp is secure.
