Condition
Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the lavender jadeite cabochons are translucent, of medium strong purple colour. Under illumination, there are white cloud inclusions, which are not noticeable when worn. Diamonds together weighing approximately 0.80 carat, are probably of H to I colours, VS clarity.
Condition: Overall in very good condition, almost as new.
