CARVED JADEITE CIRCLE AND DIAMOND PENDANT

The pendant of reversible design, set with a translucent deep green jadeite circle carved with floral motifs, mounted by a stylized diamond-set frame centring on an oscillating briolette diamond, to a diamond-set surmount and hoop, completed by a black and red jadeite link-chain, mounted in 18 karat white gold, length approximately 530mm.

Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the carved jadeite circle of thin cut, is translucent deep green colour. Under illumination, there are white clouds and slight speckles of darker green, which are not seen in normal distance. The black jadeite on chain necklace appear very dark green under strong illumination. The red jadeite beads are semi-translucent, of matching, brownish orangy red colour. Brilliant-cut diamonds are probably of F to G colours and the briolette diamond is H to I colours, overall in VS clarity. Pendant is reversible and worn on both sides. Condition: Art deco colours and style, in mint condition.
