BLACK JADEITE HOOP AND DIAMOND PENDANT AND MATCHING RING

The black jadeite hoop strung on a black cord decorated by a spherical rondelle pavé-set with brilliant-cut diamonds, and terminated by two jadeite beads of apple green colour, maximum length approximately 750mm; and the ring centring on a black jadeite cabochon, encircled by brilliant-cut diamonds extending to the split shoulders, mounted in 18 karat white gold. (2)

Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, both the black jadeite cabochon and circle appear uniform black colour. Upon close and very careful check, there are a few minor white spots or clouds. Upon strong illumination, both black jadeites are of translucent, very dark green colour. Two small jadeite beads fitted on the necklace are translucent, of strong apple green colour. Diamonds altogether weighing approximately 0.85 carat, of H to I colours, VS to SI1 clarity. Condition: Necklace length is adjustable. Both ring and pendant necklace are in mint condition.
