Description
- DIAMOND, PLATINUM
Designed as two fanciful lovebirds perching on a branch, the bodies pavé-set throughout with single-cut diamonds together weighing approximately 6.00 carats, mounted in platinum, detachable to form two clips.
Condition
Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the single-cut diamonds are about G to I colours, VS to SI1 clarity.
Condition: Vintage double-clip brooch, the two diamond 'birds' can be detached and worn separately. Very fine workmanship, signs of wear and abrasions to the metal, commensurate to age and use, otherwise in good condition.
