The lot is in good overall condition with scratches and small dents in keeping with general wear. The cultured pearls have variations of colour, mostly a yellow through peachy tone with good lustre, one of the larger pearls is noticeably whiter in body colour. The clasp has French assay marks for 18ct gold and platinum. Some of the diamonds appear slightly discoloured and slightly off-set, possible replacements. Estimated total diamond spread weight 0.12ct, though this is no indication of the actual total diamond weight. Individual diamonds too small to accurately assess colour/clarity grades. Please see important notices for purchasers in the catalogue for Coloured Gemstones. Some of the sapphires are chipped. The sapphires are a well matched medium blue hue.
