Description
- Double gourd approximately 21.76 x 12.75 x 7.75mm and 21.65 x 13.20 x 8.18mm.
Each suspending a translucent rich emerald green jadeite carved as a double gourd, dressed with threads of micro pavé-set brilliant-cut diamonds, to a similarly-set hoop surmount, accented by an articulated briolette diamond drop, mounted in 18 karat white gold.
Condition
Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the two jadeite gourds are translucent, of matching deep green colour. Under strong illumination, there are a few brown inclusions and clouds. Small round diamonds are probably of G to H colours, and two briolettes are about I, generally of VS to SI1 clarity.
Condition: In mint condition.
