Estimate $3,500 - $4,500
In our opinion, the rose quartz carving is intact and in very good condition, the ruby is of red hue with strong saturation and some typical inclusions, the diamonds are bright and lively, likely of G to H colour and VS to SI clarity as gauged and graded within the limitations of the cutting style and the mounting.
The mounting displays minor scratches and scuffs commensurate with age and wear.
The necklace is of good workmanship with signs of wear consistent with age and use, not noticeable when worn.
Overall condition very good.
