Lot 514

In our opinion the jadeite is light to mid-green intact, with some clouds, streaks and mottling. Moderate translucency. The diamonds are bright and lively, probably of G/H colour and VS/SI clarity, as gauged and graded within the limitations of the cutting style and the mounting. Enamel is in-tact has some nicks and scratches. The mounting has wear to the metal in the form of minor scratches. Pin secure.

The brooch is of very good workmanship with signs of wear consistent with age and use, not noticeable when worn.

Overall condition is very good.
