A garnet and half pearl bracelet

[ translate ]

A garnet and half pearl bracelet, designed as a line of cushion-shaped cabochon garnets in closed-back settings, spaced by trios of half pearls, (half pearls untested for origin), length 16.5cm

Condition report:
The garnets have multiple scuffs, scratches, nicks and chips throughout, commensurate for regular use, and some surface-reaching fractures. The garnets are well matched, with deep purplish-red hues, but may have a coloured foil backing to enhance their colour. The garnets measure approximately 1.6cm to 1.8cm in length x 1cm to 1.1cm in width. The half pearls have patchy greyish discolouration, many with blemishes/ripples and degradation to the nacre surface. The bracelet settings have dings, shallow dents, chips and scuffs to the backs and sides, and the settings and clasp have surface scuffs/scratches. The edges of the settings have patchy thinning. Some of the rivets between the settings are later replaced. The clasp is a little loose fitting but currently functioning. The safety chain is broken and later added, with greyish solder joins at the junctions to the bracelet. Metal standard is untested and the bracelet appears to be unmarked. Gross weight approx. 39.5gm.
