Description

  • gold, diamond, jade, coral
The tops set with numerous round diamonds weighing approximately 9.00 carats, with carved and pierced jade drops of later addition, carved with foliate motifs, the tops signed Van Cleef & Arpels, numbered N.Y.51007; pendants detachable.

Condition

In very good condition. The diamonds are approximately F-G color, VVS-VS clarity. The carved jade pendants were likely later-added to the tops by the consignor. They are medium green and opaque with lighter color mottling. Accompanied by two carved and pierced coral beads measuring approximately 11.3 by 9.8 mm and 11.3 by 9.6 mm (not illustrated), possibly originally associated with the jade pendants. Nevertheless, they cannot be added to the earclips in their current configuration.
