It's made from yellow gold, which is unmarked and has tested very clearly as 22ct. The little half pearls have a lovely lustre, are well matched and are natural pearls. The hinge, pin and c clasp are in very good order.

Overall condition is very good - I found a tiny flaw to the back of the middle ball finial to one side, which looks like it had a pinhole which has been strengthened with a teeny touch of solder and only noticeable under magnification.

Included in the sale is the antique box which, if not original, it has been in for the past century.
