VERY GOOD. We are pleased to offer this Georgian French 18ct Gold and Silver Paste charm in very good condition! The Paste sits securely nestled within her traditionally Georgian pie crust settings with a sparkle you can't help but fall for. The pie crust settings are crisp with a lovely patina within the grooves. On the 18ct Gold back, there is some wear at the centre where the Silver is showing, and some darkening around the edge of the back, however, this cannot be seen when worn. There are also some scratch marks on the underside of the charm but again, this won't be seen when worn and does not detract from its overall splendour. With oodles of personality, how could you say no to this Georgian Paste pendant?!
