Condition
Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the diamonds on pair of black ebony pendent earrings are probably of H to I colours, VS clarity. Ebony drops are detachable. The surmounts are mounted with colourless sapphires, with tinge of very light blue upon close and careful look. Diamonds on the gold-hook wood earrings are of mixed colours, from slightly tinted (about J to K colours) to medium yellow colours, SI clarity.
Condition: Two pair of chic pendent earrings, both in very good condition.
