Description
- Pear-shaped cabochons approximately 15.50 x 8.80 x 4.30 and 15.65 x 8.75 x 4.30mm; oval cabochons approximately 8.75 x 6.95 x 2.60 and 8.95 x 7.15 x 2.70mm.
Each suspending a bright green pear-shaped jadeite cabochon of fine translucency, the reverse pavé-set with brilliant-cut diamonds, surmounted by an oval jadeite cabochon of similar colour and translucency, joined by a line of pear-shaped and brilliant-cut diamonds, mounted in 18 karat white gold.
Condition
Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the jadeite cabochons are of matching, bright green colour with fine translucency. Under strong illumination, there are some white clouds and one small oval cabochon may have a few minute dark inclusions to the side, but all are not seen under normal lighting. Diamonds are probably of F to G colours, VS clarity.
Condition: Simple and sweet drop earrings of nice proportion, in mint condition.
