Description
The slightly graduating strands composed of numerous polished emerald beads, decorated with two spacers set with small round diamonds weighing approximately .85 carat , mounted in 14 karat gold, completed by 14 karat gold clasp, lengths 15 to 22 inches, together with 2 pendant-tassels composed of numerous smaller emerald beads, not illustrated.
Condition
The emerald beads vary slightly in color from medium to deep slightly bluish green and are moderately to heavily included, yet still translucent. Diamonds in the bar spacers are approximately G-H color and VS-SI clarity. Accompanying the necklace are two 12-strand tassels of emerald beads ranging in size from 2.7 to 4.8 mm. Both tassels are fitted with a screw-type fixture that don't appear to attach to the said necklace in its current configuration.
