Overall condition good with scratches and small dents in keeping with general wear. One seed pearl deficient. Three paste replacements. Earring backs deficient. The pendant sections are later additions/replacements to the surmounts. The galleries are slightly bent and have shallow dents. Cultured pearls and seed pearls moderately well matched, with white through creamy yellow body colour, some more button shaped than spherical. One cultured pearls has minor nacre damage. One seed pearl is missing, as is the cup-shape mount, with clear glue visible. Diamonds bright and moderately well matched. One principal diamond has significant chip to upper facets, estimated I-J colour, VS2-P1 clarity, with very small scattered inclusions. Most individual diamonds too small to accurately assess colour/clarity grades. Some of the smaller diamonds are brilliant and old-cut replacements. Three colourless paste replacements. Some of the smaller diamonds are covered in dirt/glue.
