Suspending three graduated pear-shaped emeralds weighing 10.61, 8.30 and 7.02 carats, surrounded by marquise- and pear-shaped diamonds, to a necklace set with pear- and marquise-shaped diamonds, the diamonds together weighing approximately 32.00 carats, mounted in platinum and 18 karat white gold, length approximately 415mm, signed.
Condition
Colour and Clarity: According to AGL reports, the emeralds are natural, of Colombian origin. The smallest emerald has indications of insignificant to faint oil enhancement (oil-type), and the other two emeralds have indications of faint clarity enhancement. Please refer to the reports for details. In our opinion, the emeralds are matching, of medium, intense green colour, very slightly to naked eyes, good brilliance. Upon 10x loupe, there are some natural included crystals and fingerprints, not noticeable to naked eyes. Diamonds are about E to G colours, VVS to VS clarity. With maker's mark for Jacques Timey for Harry Winston.
Condition: Platinum mount, overall in very good condition.
