In good condition.

Overall setting is in good condition, with very little wear to polished surface. Sliding rondelles can be moved easily by holding necklace firmly in both hands, putting thumb and index finger on either side of a rondelle and sliding gently to one side or the other to reveal the silver segments. Please note that the colored diamonds are not tested for natural color. Please note that the clasp mechanism has become lose and will be repaired by Sotheby's for the purchaser.
In response to your inquiry, we are pleased to provide you with a general report of the condition of the property described above.

Prospective buyers should inspect each lot to satisfy themselves as to condition and must understand that any statement made by Sotheby's is merely a subjective qualified opinion. Illustrations in the catalogue may not be actual size. Prospective purchasers are reminded that, unless the catalogue description specifically states that a stone is natural, we have assumed that some form of treatment may have been used and that such treatment may not be permanent. Our presale estimates reflect this assumption.
