Magnificent Jewelry from the Collection of Annie-Laurie Aitken, Sotheby's New York, April 23, 1985, lot 561.

Accompanied by GIA report no. 5141432145 stating natural pearls, saltwater. The diamonds are all approximately G to J color, VS to SI clarity, suspending a pair of semi-baroque natural pearl drops. Although the pearls are described as being "orangy brown" and "cream" color in the GIA certificate, the "orangy brown" pearl is actually more gray, with strong violet and green overtones; it presents moderate blemishing with some slight ringing towards the bottom. The cream colored pearl has light to moderate rose and green overtones, with some slight wrinkling of the skin. The earrings are meant to be worn with the cream pearl on the right ear and the grey pearl on the left ear; the right earclip is slightly loose. In good condition overall. Please note the Provenance is formerly in the Collection of Annie-Laurie Aitken. Sold by Sotheby's New York in April 1985, Magnificent Jewelry from the Collection of Annie-Laurie Aitken, lot 561.
