Brownish inclusions, veins and pitting to turquoise, which has surface wear, scuffs and nicks/chips. Diamonds have variable colour and clarity, some stones with chips and surface-reaching fractures, but give an overall lively appearance. The settings are very heavily worn and some of the collets have splits and missing sections, where the metal has worn down to the stone. The mount otherwise has considerable signs of wear and tarnishing, with kinks to the base of the setting and some thinning to the shank. Metal standard is unmarked and untested but possibly a gold and silver combination. Gross weight approximately 4.2gm.
