Condition
All three pieces in good condition with minimal surface wear to the gold. Light nicking to the enamel on the ring.

The diamonds are approximately F-G-H color, VVS-VS clarity. The tiger's eye in the ring is more brownish than those in the earrings. The transparent cabochon emeralds in the earrings are medium green and lightly to moderately included.
