Condition Report
Overall condition good. Minor surface wear in keeping with general wear. The cultured pearl has been added at a later date. It is not set perfectly central to the surround. Glue residue can be seen easily. The diamonds are bright, lively and well matched. Light nicks and chips can be seen to some. Fine feathers and fractures can be seen under magnification. Without the aid of laboratory equipment, it has not been possible to determine if these cultured pearls are from a fresh or saltwater source. Unhallmarked.
