描述

Comprising: a necklace designed as a slightly graduated line of alternating round sapphires and diamonds, length 15½ inches, partially signed Tiffany & Co., clasp later modified; a matching bracelet with a marquise-shaped diamond-set clasp, length 6¾ inches, signed T&Co.; and a pair of earclips designed as floral clusters set with round and marquise-shaped diamonds and round sapphires, signed Tiffany & Co. Fitted with posts.

Condition

All items in good condition with minor scratches to the mounting commensurate with light wear. The necklace is stamped PT for platinum. The diamonds in the necklace, estimated to weigh a total of approximately 5.10 carats, are approximately G-H, VVS-VS clarity. The sapphires are medium deep blue, some examples medium blue, eye clean to slightly included. Fitted with a later added lobster clasp which closes securely.
