In our opinion, the mounting displays very minor scratches and patina commensurate with age and wear, the carving of the coral is of excellent quality and is in very good condition.

The earrings are of very good workmanship with signs of wear consistent with age and use, not noticeable when worn.

Overall condition is very good considering its period.
