Description

  • natural pearl, diamond, platinum
Each suspending a natural pearl drop measuring approximately 10.23-10.26 x 15.12mm and 9.98-10.01 x 15.43mm respectively, surmounted by variously-shaped collet-set diamonds altogether weighing approximately 2.20 carats, mounted in platinum.

Condition

Colour and Clarity: According to SSEF report, both pearls are natural, saltwater pearls. Two largest round diamonds in the surmount, according to GIA reports, are matching, of G colour, VS2 clarity, with Excellent Cut. Please refer to the reports for details. In our opinion, the two natural pearls are of matching drop-shape, white colour with slight rosè overtone, with minor surface blemishes which are not noticeable when worn. Other small diamonds are about G to H colours, VS clarity. Condition: Platinum mounts, in very good condition.
