Condition
Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the black jadeite circle and sugar-loaf appear pure black to naked eyes. Under very strong illumination, both are semi-translucent, very dark green colour. The tiny jadeite cabochons on ring and pendant are fine translucent, of bright green to emerald green colour. Diamonds are probably of G to H colours, VS clarity. Necklace length is adjustable.
Condition: Nice contrast of colours, both in mint condition.
