Condition
Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the cultured pearls on necklace are round to naked eyes, cream white colour with slight rosè overtone, very good surface lustre with minor to moderate surface blemishes which are not seen unless close check. Two heart-shaped tourmalines set on bangle are of medium deep olive green and purple-pink colour, eye clean. Under loupe check, there are only a few minor natural inclusions, mostly in the pink tourmaline and not seen to naked eyes. Both are signed.
Condition: Karat yellow gold mounts, with signs of wear and surface scratches to the metal, overall both in good condition.
