Condition Report: Seen only with 10x magnification the stones have a few minute surface abrasions on the facet junctions (very minor) consistent with age normal wear. Gold shows some very light surface wear & some spots of toning. There is a thread repair to hold one of the dangles that is seen from the back (see close-up pics). Pin bar, hinge & catch work properly, but non-karat gold pin bar is likely a replacement.
