Overall condition fair to good. Some surface wear in keeping with age/general wear. Please see report for further details. Principal pearl with wooden pin within the drill hole. Pearls creamy colour, with rose and greenish overtones. Pearls vary slightly in hue, from creamy white, to yellow, pinkish and orangish. Pearls differ in shape and are slightly unevenly shaped. Fairly good skins with some surface blemishes to include rings and small pits. Some have fine fractures to the nacre. Some with nicks, one chipped. Fair to fairly good lustre, differs slightly. Some discolouration to the string, we would recommend re-stringing. Diamonds fairly well matched. Due to the nature of the diamond point it is not possible to calculate an accurate total diamond weight. Estimated total diamond spread weight 0.10ct, which is no indication of the actual total diamond weight.
