Condition

Colour and Clarity: According to the Jadeite Jade Testing certificate, the jadeite drops are natural, Type A jadeites. Please refer to the certificate for details. In our opinion, the jadeite drops have good translucency, of intense and bright emerald green colour. Upon illumination, there are white cloud inclusions, not noticeable in normal lighting. Diamonds are about J to K colours, VS clarity. Condition: Vintage earrings, have surface abrasions to the mount, otherwise in very good condition. IMPORTANT NOTICE: Please note that jadeite and rubies of Burmese origin and articles of jewellery containing jadeite or rubies of Burmese origin all less than 100 years old may not be imported into the US. The purchaser's inability to import any item into the U.S. or any other country as a result of these or other restrictions shall not justify cancellation or rescission of the sale or any delay in payment. Please check with the specialist department if you are uncertain as to whether a lot is subject to these import restrictions, or any other restrictions on importation or exportation.
In response to your inquiry, we are pleased to provide you with a general report of the condition of the property described above.
