Two notable chips to the emerald, one to the bottom right corner, the other just off to the bottom right corner of the table. Moderate abrasion and nibbling to the facet edges. Claws show some loss, but the stone appears secure. One diamond shows some nibbling/abrasion to the girdle between one set of claws, and the other shows two minor chips to the table - there are visible at 10x, not with the naked eye. Claws appear in good order, stones are secure. Shank shows some thinning. general scratching and wear commensurate with age and use, but no splitting, resizing or repair.
