Condition Report
Overall condition fair to good. Some surface wear in keeping with age. There is a very light dent to the reverse. Pin is a possible replacement. Seed pearls creamy white. Fairly good skins with some surface blemishes. Fairly good lustre. Blue enamel in good condition with minor abrasion. Diamonds fairly well matched. Due to the nature of the rose-cut it is not possible to calculate a total diamond weight. Based on the surface spread alone, they appear to occupy the same surface space as diamonds with an estimated total weight of 0.20ct, however this estimated weight does not reflect the true weight of the diamonds in any way. Individual size prevents accurate colour/clarity assessment. Scattered to profuse inclusions. Diamonds in fair to poor condition, some with abrasion and nibbles, some with significant chips. Fittings in good working order. Engraved 'Registered 579231'.
