Condition Report
Overall condition fair to poor. One circular-shape aquamarine is deficient and would need to be replaced. The central panel appears to have been bent out of shape, with dents and damage to the back of the central collet. There is some damage to the front of the central collet. The smaller circular aquamarines are darker blue, the larger aquamarine are medium to pale blue with a weak saturation of colour. One small split pearl has damage to the nacre, one has possibly been replaced as it is grey in colour and the majority are cream. The expanding chain is associated, the centre and bracelet strap have been put together, both parts from a similar period. The expanding bracelet strap is stamped 15ct. The clasp is dented and loose, the safety chain is metal and not original. One of the joining links to the central panel is bent.
