Condition

Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, both lavender jadeite cabochons set in the earrings and ring are of medium to medium strong mauve colour. The lavender jadeite cabochon set in the ring is of slightly better translucency than earrings, but generally, they all have fine translucency. The other jadeite cabochons are of rich green colour, in similar translucency as the lavender jadeite. Under strong illumination, some green jadeite cabochons show cloud inclusions, particularly to the smaller cabochons which have tiny dark spots to the side, but not seen in front view. All diamonds are probably of H to I colours, VS to SI clarity. Condition: Both the ring and earrings are in mint condition.
