Condition: I have examined this ring with a 60x jeweler’s loupe. It is in great antique condition for its age. All of the pearls and turquoise are original to the ring. There are some minor age-related lightening and yellowing to two of the turquoise cabs due to exposure to light and oils over time. Two of the turquoise cabochons have a tiny nibble to the edge.
