Description
- Hoops diameter and thickness approximately 17.98 to 17.95 and 5.33 to 5.32mm.
Each suspending a jadeite hoop of rich emerald green colour and fine translucency, clasped by brilliant-cut diamond-set rondelles, joined to a brilliant-cut diamond surmount, anchored by numerous briolette diamonds, mounted in 18 karat white gold.
Condition
Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the two jadeite circles are of matching, rich emerald green colour, with fine translucency. Upon illumination, the texture is still very fine, which shows only very minor cloudy inclusions, not seen in normal lighting. Two large round diamonds altogether weighing approximately 1.80 carats, probably of G colour, VS clarity. Diamond briolettes altogether weighing approximately 16.70 carats, are mostly of G colour, VS to SI clarity. Tiny round diamonds are probably of similar quality.
Condition: Elegant and fine design, in mint condition.
