DIAMOND NECKLACE

The broad V-shaped mesh necklace encrusted throughout with brilliant-cut diamonds, embellished by interspersing clusters set with similar-cut diamonds, the diamonds together weighing approximately 140.65 carats, mounted in 18 karat white gold, inner circumference approximately 360mm.

Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the smaller diamonds are generally of F to G colours, VS clarity; while a few larger diamonds of approximately 0.45 to 0.85 carat each are about G to H colours, VS to SI clarity. Condition: Labour extensive piece of jewellery, each diamond is manually linked which gives a fabric-like finish. The entire necklace is very soft, following the exact flow of the neck when it is worn. Overall in very good condition.
