Diamond necklace/bracelet/pin combination

The box-link necklace set with 80 old European-cut diamonds weighing approximately 16.00 carats, mounted in platinum, length 14¼ inches, separates into a pair of bracelets, or a pair of bar pins, pin fittings included.

The diamonds are approximately H-J color and VS-SI clarity. The necklace is divisible into two 4-inch segments and two 3-inch segments. The two 3-inch segments can be applied to the accompanying bar pin fittings and worn as brooches. The segments can also be worn as two bracelets (with an accompanying hinged carrier that holds the bracelets side-by-side), or as a necklace. There are also 2 miscellaneous . fittings included, but seem not to pertain to the combination in its current form. In good condition overall. Fitted with 4 safety closures.
