Description

Condition

Stamped PT950 for platinum and OR for gold. White pearl with pinkish-brownish overtones, good lustre, some typical blemishes but overall smooth skin. Please note that the pearl has a chip close to the diamond surmount and that glue has been used to repair it. This default is at the back of the pearl and is therefore not visible when worn. For further information, please refer to the SSEF report. Diamonds estimated to weigh approximately 5.50 - 6.00 carats, on average of G-H colour and VS-SI clarity (very few I), as gauged and graded in mounting. Clasp secure, safety catch below. Signs of normal wear to the metal, scratches consistent with use, little solder marks to the reverse. In good condition.
