Each suspending a translucent jadeite of intense emerald green colour carved as a peapod, surmounted by a jadeite cabochon of similar colour and translucency, linked by pear- and marquise-shaped diamonds, the diamonds altogether weighing approximately 2.00 carats, mounted in 18 karat white gold, pendants detachable.

Colour and Clarity: According to the Jadeite Jade Testing Certificate, the pair of jadeite "peapods" are natural, Type A Jadeite Jade. Please refer to the certificate for details. In our opinion, the jadeite "peapods" have good translucency, slightly deep strong emerald green colour. Under strong magnification, there are some clouds and natural deep green inclusions. Upon loupe check and illumination, one peapod has surface reaching fissures, mostly close to the side, but not seen to naked eyes. The tops are of strong emerald green colour with good translucency. Diamonds together weighing approximately 2.00 carats, are about G to H colours, VS2 to SI1 clarity. Condition: Karat white gold mounts, ear-pendants are detachable, overall in very good condition.
