Description
The center decorated with a highly sculptural ribbon scroll set with two rows of emerald-cut citrines bordered by rows of calibré-cut sapphires and segments of pavé-set diamonds, completed by a bracelet of polished gold rectangular links, length 6¾ inches, French maker's mark and assay marks.
Condition
Maker's mark is G (or O) B and crossed swords in a lozenge. The pave diamonds are old European-cut, there are single-cut diamonds in the clasp, all weighing a total of approximately 1.00 carat, H-I color and VS-SI clarity. The citrines vary slightly in color from medium light golden yellow to medium deep brownish yellow. One is significantly chipped, all are predominantly eye clean. The sapphires are a medium light to medium blue color and are slightly included. Some scratching to the surface of the gold, but in good condition. With french assay marks. The bracelet opens by pressing down on the slightly raised citrine and pulling the clasp ends apart.
