Description

  • Icy jadeite beads approximately 10.71 to 12.81mm and jadeite beads approximately 3.52 to 5.27mm.
Composed of thirty-nine icy jadeite beads of good translucency, alternated by jadeite beads of emerald green colour of similar translucency, completed by a diamond-set ball clasp, mounted in 18 karat white gold, length approximately 600mm.

Condition

Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the icy jadeite beads are well matching and have very good transluency to almost semi-transparent. Under illumination, the beads appear a little cloudy, but not seen when worn and is quite common to natural icy jadeite beads. Other smaller jadeite beads are of translucent green to bright green colour. Condition: Nice graduation in size, in mint condition.
