More Information

Please note that the central opal has not be laboratory tested for synthetic or natural origin. There is a small chip to the reverse, and a surface reaching crack around 3/4mm long on the reverse of the stone. Claws show some wear, one is broken, but the central opal is secure. All diamonds are present - some have small nibbles and chips to the facet edges visible under 10x. Some wear to the settings, but no splitting, major damage or repair. There does appear to be a fitting to the reverse, suggesting this is a transitional piece (see additional pictures). The metal of this pendant is unmarked and untested. Some links to the chain show signs of possible repair. The claw is in working order.
