Condition

Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the cultured pearls on the necklace are round to naked eyes, well-matched, of white to off-white body colour, with light to medium rosè overtone and good to very good lustre; and the cultured pearls on the pendent earrings are ovoid-shaped, one with white and one with slightly off-white body colour, with rosè overtone and very good lustre. All the cultured pearls have very minor natural surface blemishes but do not affect their beauty. The diamonds on the boule clasp are mainly about H to J colour (with some K to L colour), SI to I1 clarity. The diamonds on the pendent earrings are mainly about G to H colour (with a few I colour), VS to SI clarity. Pearl pendants detachable, and one is drilled slightly off centre. Condition: Karat white gold mount, overall in mint condition.
