Description

Set in the center with a large emerald-cut citrine quartz, framed by a crescent of cushion-shaped sapphires, within a border of gold curling ribbons and rays, the teminals of the rays accented with round diamonds, mounted in gold, signed Trabert & Hoeffer, Mauboussin.

Condition

In good overall condition with light surface wear and minute denting to the gold. There is patch of lead solder residue on the reverse. The sapphires present pastel shades of violetish blue and are predominantly eye-clean. The citrine is a light slightly brownish yellow and is eye-clean with some light scratching and abrading. The diamonds are approximately near colorless, VS-SI clarity. A wonderfully three-dimensional piece. Signed Trabert & Hoeffer Mauboussin on back of 2nd scroll. A spot of solder repair or filler on the reverse of another one of the scrolls.
