Description
- Peapod approximately 24.57 x 8.05 x 5.08 and 24.80 x 8.12 x 4.80mm.
Each set with a highly translucent carved jadeite peapod of rich green colour, surmounted by a cascading diamond-set cluster, suspended from a pear-shaped diamond encircled by brilliant-cut diamonds, mounted in 18 karat white gold, post fittings.
Condition
Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the two jadeite peapods are highly translucent, of rich green colour, lively carved. Under illumination, there are slight white clouds, which are not seen in normal lighting. Diamonds are probably of E to F colours, VS clarity.
Condition: Surmounts are slightly articulated, traditional carving shape, in mint condition.
