Set to the front with a translucent jadeite cabochon of apple green colour, to an openwork surround set with circular-cut diamonds, completed by a triple-strand graduated jadeite bead necklace, to a clasp set with jadeite cabochons and circular-cut diamonds, the diamonds together weighing approximately 1.30 carats, mounted in 18 karat white gold, length approximately 415mm.

Colour and Clarity: According to the jadeite certificates, the jadeite cabochons and beads are natural, type "A" jadeite. Please refer to the certificates for details. In our opinion, all jadeites have good translucency, of medium soft to medium, apple green colour. Upon strong illumination, there are some clouds. Some jadeite beads and the large cabochon have minor splashes of intense green clouds, generally of soft and pleasing tone. Diamonds together weighing approximately 1.30 carats, are F to H colours, VS clarity. Condition: Karat white gold mount, in very good condition.
