Description

  • Cabochons approximately 7.47 x 6.70 x 3.85mm to 11.64 x 10.34 x 5.80mm.
The necklace composed of clusters of highly translucent oval jadeite cabochons of bright green colour, set at intervals by floral clusters set with brilliant-cut diamonds, suspending a detachable fringe composed of jadeite cabochons of matching colour and translucency, length approximately 430 to 470mm; and a brooch designed as a knotted ribbon pavé-set with brilliant-cut diamonds; mounted in 18 karat white gold. (2)

Condition

Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the jadeite cabochons are well matching, of bright green colour, with exceptional translucency. Under strong illumination, there are minor white clouds in the cabochons, but not seen in normal lighting. Diamonds on both the necklace and brooch altogether weighing approximately 24.30 carats, are probably of E to F colours, VS clarity. The fringe pendant on necklace is detachable and fitted as tassel on the brooch. Condition: Dressy design, both in very good condition.
