Condition

Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the natural pearls are of various hues, including white, light to medium dark grey colours, with rosè and green overtone. Those pearls on pendants are of drop-shape, others are mostly nice high-domed button to off-round shape, good lustre. Most of the pearls are quite clean, and a few have minor to moderate surface blemishes, which are generally not noticeable unless close look. Diamond beads are about H to I colours, SI clarity. Condition: Platinum mounts, overall in very good condition.
