Condition Report
The lot is in good overall condition with light scratches in keeping with general wear. The diamonds appear bright and well matched, estimated total diamond spread weight 0.28ct, which is no indication of the 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 slightly purplish red hue. Minor-moderate abrasion. The blister pearl has an irregular surface with even colouration and good lustre.
