It has been re-glued into position. It does not fit the mount well, which is rather sharp and mis-shapen at the edges. The smaller cameo is marked 925, it is modern and is in good condition.
The agate and citrine brooch, cornealian is cracked otherwise fair condition.
Moonstone circular brooch, one moonstone is detached but present .
The mauve paste brooch is rather rubbed.
All brooches would benefit from professional cleaning.
