Condition Report
The lot is in good overall condition with light scratches in keeping with general wear. One obvious rose-cut diamond replacement, to tail, too large, with glue to surrounding area. French re-striking old production mark to tail. Minor losses to one foot. Predominantly silver with traces of 9ct gold. The diamonds appear bright and well matched, estimated total diamond spread weight 0.35ct, which is no indication of total diamond weight. Individual diamonds too small to accurately assess colour/clarity grades. Please see important notices for purchasers in the catalogue and on our website for Coloured Gemstones. The rubies are a well matched purplish red hue, significant abrasion.
