The lot is in good to fair overall condition with light scratches in keeping with general wear. Stamped 18ct. The principal diamond is chipped to the girdle. Traces of gilt finish. Slight pitting to mounts. The diamonds appear bright and well matched. Most individual diamonds too small to accurately assess colour/clarity grades. Small, scattered inclusions. Please see important notices for purchasers in the catalogue and on our website for Coloured Gemstones. Emeralds are in closed settings and may be foil back. The emeralds appear a well matched medium deep slightly bluish green hue. Few surface reaching inclusions, minor nicks and slight facet-edge abrasion.
