Condition Report
Overall condition fair. The brooch appears to have been completely rhodium plated and would have probably originally been yellow gold, with a possible silver fronting. The central diamond is drawing colour, there are some black inclusions beneath the table facet visible with the unaided eye. The rose-cut diamonds are bright, there are chips to several visible with magnification, individual size and/or setting prevents accurate colour/clarity assessment.
The back fitting is not original and is attached, by a back screw fitting.
