Condition

Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, diamonds on the clover brooch are about E to F colours, VS clarity; diamonds on the ballerina brooch are probably of H to I colours, similar clarity. Both are signed and numbered to the back. Condition: Signs of minute wear to both mounts, overall in very good condition.
