Composed of nine natural pearls measuring approximately 7.71 to 5.50mm, decorated with rondelles pavé-set with rose-cut diamonds, continuously strung with numerous seed pearls, completed by a barrel-shaped clasp of similar diamond settings, mounted in 18 karat white gold, length approximately 170mm.
Condition
Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the pearls are off-round to slightly oval- or drop-shaped, of cream colour, mostly medium lustre with minor surface blemishes which are not seen in normal distance. Diamonds are slightly tinted and SI clarity, typical quality for antique diamonds.
Condition: A delicate pearl bracelet, with surface abrasions to the metal which commensurate with age and use, otherwise in good condition.
