Description

  • Cabochons approximately 23.40 x 7.42 x 5.20 and 23.72 x 7.08 x 4.82mm.
Each suspending a highly translucent pear-shaped jadeite cabochon of rich green colour, amid a mesh surround embellished by brilliant-cut diamonds and tsavorite garnets, mounted in 18 karat white gold.

Condition

Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the two long jadeite drops are well matched, of highly translucent, rich green colour. Upon illumination, there are some cloud inclusions which are not seen in normal lighting. Diamonds in the surround are probably of G colour, VS clarity. Tsavorite garnets are of medium green colour, eye clean with brilliance. Condition: Surrounding diamonds and tsavorite garnets are articulately linked, overall in very good condition.
