Condition Report
Overall condition good. Some surface wear in keeping with age/general wear. Composite piece, the trifurcated bangle dates from the late 19th century, stamped 15, with added gem-set panels. Rubies pinkish-red, moderate colour saturation. A few red-gems are possible replacements. Fairly good clarity with typical inclusions. Gemstones in fair condition with nicks and some chips. Please see Important Notices for Purchasers in our catalogue or on our website for coloured gemstones. Diamonds fairly bright and well matched. Due to the nature of the diamond point it is not possible to calculate an accurate total diamond weight. Individual size prevents accurate colour/clarity assessment. Diamonds in fair condition with nicks and chips. Some possible split pearl replacements, slight variations in hue.
