Description
- Cabochons approximately 10.90 x 8.00 x 3.30 and 11.05 x 7.80 x 3.00mm.
Each centring on a highly translucent emerald green jadeite cabochon, encircled by brilliant-cut diamonds, mounted in 18 karat white gold.
Condition
Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, two jadeite cabochons are of matching and fine translucent, deep green colour. Under strong illumination, there are a few dark inclusions and clouds, which are not noticeable in normal lighting. Diamonds in the surround are probably of F to G colours, VVS2 to VS clarity.
Condition: Classic jadeite earclips, in very good condition.
