DESCRIPTION:
According to the above book, this set can be found not only in her book but in the 1976 – 1977 Whiting & Davis catalog on page 10.  This set contains four pieces a necklace, bracelet, earrings and ring.  The stones in this set are matte finished cabochons in turquoise blue and a brown center center.  The bracelet has a hinged box clasp.  There is some minor wear to the plating on the back of the necklace and bracelet center pieces.  The plating wear simply shows a small amount of silver color showing through the gold plating.  This wear is less than would be expected in pieces over 44 years old.
When purchasing vintage items, you must expect some age appropriate amount of wear. Here are the definitions to the condition terms I use to describe my items.

Excellent:
The best you can except for any vintage / used items. It has the slightest hint of wear.
Very Good:
Signs of use or age, nothing too obvious.
Good:
Noticeable wear or damage, but still wearable. This type of wear or damage will be described in the description portion of my auction.
