Condition Report
Overall condition good with surface scratches and dents in keeping with general wear. The opal has a pinkish-orange body colour with a good play-of-colour, the colours seen are predominantly green and blue. There are some light surface scratches to the opal cabochon. The diamonds appear bright and lively with scattered light and dark inclusions and some minor surface nicks. Estimated total diamond weight 0.12ct. The individual size of the diamonds prevents accurate colour/clarity assessment. The aquamarine is a pale-medium blue colour. The split pearls vary in body colour from a creamy white to a creamy yellow, all with rose and greenish overtones. Some of the pearls have surface imperfections. There is discolouration to the reverse of the horseshoe brooch. Lengths 2.7cms, 5cms and 5.8cms.
