Condition Report
The lot is in good overall condition with scratches and small dents in keeping with general wear. The diamonds appear bright and well matched. Individual diamonds too small to accurately assess colour/clarity grades. The opals are set within gold, the diamonds are set in silver fronted mounts. Please see important notices for purchasers in the catalogue for Coloured Gemstones. The opals are very well matched with a good, strong play of colour in a range of hues with minor surface scratches, no chips or cracks. The fitted box shows discolouration, fading and scuffs.
