Upon illumination, both jadeite circles show cloud inclusions, not seen when worn. Diamonds set to the jadeite pendant are probably of H to I colours; while stones on lavender jadeite pendant are about J to K colours. All diamonds are of VS to SI clarity. Condition: Classic circle pendants on adjustable rope necklace, both in excellent condition.
