PAIR OF JADEITE AND DIAMOND PENDENT EARRINGS

Each set with a highly translucent deep emerald green carved jadeite plaque depicting a leaf, supported by marquise- and pear-shaped diamonds, joined to a pear-shaped jadeite cabochon surmount of matching colour and translucency, surrounded by brilliant-cut diamonds, mounted in 18 karat white gold.

Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the jadeite cabochons and plaques are of matching, deep emerald green colour, with very fine translucency. Under strong illumination, there are clouds and dark inclusions, but not shown in normal lighting. Diamonds set in the surmount are probably of G to H colours, mostly VS clarity, altogether weighing approximately 1.20 carats. Condition: Only a few minute signs of wear, otherwise in very good condition.
