Condition Report.
Ring with locket compartment; Glazing is present, a bit dirty within, hinge pin a little limp, but is currently sound, the agate is a bit chipped to the edge at the top and at the bottom, no hallmarks, probably approx 15ct grade, overall in fairly good condition for age, locket covering is inclined to spring open and would benefit from adjustment to keep it closed.
Pearl mourning ring: A few surface marks and minor chips to the enamel, currently very dirty between the pearls, would benefit from careful professional cleaning, no hallmarks, probably approx 15ct grade.
Both rings in original condition.
