Condition

Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the lavender jadeite cylinder is translucent, of intense mauve colour with minor patches of white clouds. The two lavender jadeite cabochons on earrings are of matching, strong to vivid mauve colour, with fine translucency. Under illumination, two cabochons may show minor cloudy inclusions which are not seen in normal lighting. Diamonds on both items are probably of I to J colours, VS to SI clarity. Condition: Lavender jadeite cylinder pendant can be detached from rope necklace and worn separately. Both are in mint condition.
