or enamel loss.

There maybe some minor signs of wear or age, i.e. slight wear to the plating or
enamel, minor foil damage to the stones. Flaws will be minor but just enough to
downgrade the item from an "excellent" condition rating. Any such flaws will be
listed under the description of a specific item.

loss, the stones may be dull or greying. Again, specific flaws will be pointed out
in the item description.

deterioration of stones. Consequently, the price has been adjusted accordingly.
