Condition Report: The necklace is in good condition. The smaller pearls are more uneven in colour and shape, and these may be natural, although as stated no tests have been carried out. The pearls graduate from approximately 3mm to 6mm. The clasp is a V snap catch, and they also bear a safety chain. The catch bears no stamp, nor hallmark, but in our opinion would test as gold. The diamond measures 5mm x 5mm x 2.99mm. The approximate qualities of the diamond are; colour I/J, clarity I1/I2. Gross weight 10.6 grams. CR made 24th August 2011
