PAIR OF AQUAMARINE AND DIAMOND 'BIRD' BROOCHES, Tiffany & Co.

Modelled as a mother bird and baby bird, each set with a pear-shaped aquamarine body weighing approximately 13.00 and 2.70 carats respectively, decorated by brilliant-cut diamonds altogether weighing approximately 1.20 carats, accented by two cabochon sapphire-set eyes; mounted in platinum and 18 karat yellow gold, signed. (2)

Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the pear-shaped aquamarines are of medium deep, sky blue colour, very clean to both naked eyes and loupe check. Diamonds are about F to G colours, VS clarity. Two cabochon sapphires are slightly deep strong blue, eye clean. Both are signed. Condition: Platinum and karat yellow gold mounts, both in very good condition.
