Condition Report
Overall condition good. There are scratches to all brooches in keeping with the age of the brooches. The three leaf clover has been possibly added to the bar at a later date, the diamonds are bright, the brooch is bent. The silver settings to the initial bar brooch and discoloured black, there are substantial chips to some of the diamonds and the settings would need to be secured. The back pin to the fox head brooch is loose and would need attention. The fox brooch is stamped 15ct. The others are unhallmarked.
