Colour and Clarity: According to the jadeite report, the carved dragon belt-buckle is natural, A Jade. Please refer to the report for details. In our opinion, the jadeite is translucent, celadon tone suffused with deep emerald green colour and a few streaks of russet and yellow tone. There are some white cloud inclusions. On the bottom, there are some brownish streaks, fissures and abrasion to the terminal. Condition: In good condition, dated very late nineteenth century in our opinion. This lot is to be offered without reserve.

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.
