One on the ring face-up round to naked eyes, while the other four set on the earrings are of irregular drop shape. Carved emeralds are medium green colours, slightly included to naked eyes. Diamonds are probably of H to I colours, VS2 to SI clarity. Cabochon emerald on the separate ring is about medium green colour, moderately included to naked eyes with surface reaching chips under 10x loupe. Diamonds on this ring are about F to G colours, VS clarity. Condition: Pendant drops on the cultured pearl earrings are detachable. Signs of wear and scratches to the ring shanks, particular to the pearl ring, otherwise in good condition.
