Condition
Both pieces in good condition overall. NECKLACE: The off round to baroque cultured pearls have a silvery light gray body color with soft rose and green overtones, moderate blemishing such as pitting, ringing and uneven skins. The diamonds are approximately G-H color, predominantly VS clarity. Necklace bears a nice heft. EARRINGS: Evidence of solder and discoloration to the gold commensurate with wear. The off round cultured pearl drops have a silvery light gray body color with soft green and rose overtones, evidence of minor pitting, uneven skins, and drill holes at the bottom of both pearls. The diamonds are approximately G-I color, VS clarity. The consignor removed two links from the necklace to create the earrings. The extra findings from this alteration accompany the lot.
