Condition Report
The lot is in fair to good overall condition with light scratches and small dents in keeping with general wear. The ivy leaf pendant has a brooch fitting and has been cleaned to a high polish. The pin is split and may need replacing. The clasp is a modern replacement with minor soft solder visible. The split pearls are mostly well matched with some discolouration to some of them. Some of the smaller split pearls have splits and losses. The diamond appears dark, estimated diamond weight 0.01ct, the diamond is too small to accurately assess colour/clarity grades. The blue glass pendant shows abrasion to the back of the leaf tips. The blue glass cabochons have moderate abrasion. Unhallmarked. Weight 8.5gms.
