Condition

Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, all icy jadeite cabochons and loops set in the suite are of very fine translucency to almost semi-transparent. The large icy jadeite cabochon set on the ring has particularly fine texture, giving a soft internal glow in normal illumination. Two smaller cabochons and the loops set on earrings appear slightly cloudy against strong illumination, but not seen when worn. Tiny jadeite cabochons set on ring and two concaved jadeite plaques on earrings are of fine translucent, intense emerald green colour. Diamonds are probably of F to G colours, VS clarity. Condition: Both in mint condition.
