Condition Report
Overall condition good. Minor surface wear in keeping with general wear. Cultured pearls creamy colour, with rose and greenish overtones. Some are unevenly shaped. Fair skins with some significant surface blemishes and wear to the nacre. Fairly well matched, differ slightly in shape. Fair lustre. We would recommend re-stringing. Without the aid of laboratory equipment, it has not been possible to determine if these cultured pearls are from a fresh or saltwater source. Emeralds green, foil-backed, differ in hue and shape. Fairly good clarity with typical inclusions. Gemstones in fair to good condition with some abrasion and nibbles. Split pearls have fairly good skins with some wear to the nacre. Please see Important Notices for Purchasers in our catalogue for coloured gemstones. Stamped 585.
