Condition Report
Overall condition fair. The mounts of the stones appear to be late 19th century, however the stones all appear to be possible replacements. The amethysts vary in colour, some have a much stronger saturation of colour, there are inclusions to many visible with the unaided eye. There are chips to the facet edges of some. The clasp has been altered, with the amethyst and setting added to the clasp at a later date. Please see the Important Notices for Purchasers in our catalogue for coloured gemstones.
