Overall condition good. Minor surface scratches and scuffs in keeping with general wear. Pin likely a base metal replacement. The sapphires vary in tone with fairly light to fairly dark blues with good to fairly good clarity showing typical inclusions. The pink sapphires are a well matched very light pink with good to fairly good clarity. One of the end stone has a portion missing. The diamonds are bright, lively and well matched. Small light and dark inclusions can be seen under magnification. Individual size and setting prevents accurate colour and clarity assessment. Please see the Important Notices for Purchasers in our catalogue or on our website for coloured gemstones.
