18 Karat Gold, Turquoise and Ruby Dress Set, David Webb

Including a pair of cufflinks and four studs, the terminals set with cabochon turquoise segments, studded with cabochon rubies, signed Webb.

In very good condition overall. The turquoise cabochons in the cufflinks are medium blue and well matched, they are slightly deeper and more blue (less green) than the cabochons in the studs. A few of the rubies have fine cracks visible only under magnification. The mountings show litte or no signs of wear.
