Carved Lavender Jade Shield Earrings

Sold

With a pleasing lavender color, these type A untreated natural jadeite jade earrings are the perfect celebration gift; responsible, elegant and naturally noteworthy. The pure, polished rounds feature stylistic hand carving, a lovely luster and clear complexion, all mounted in the original 14k yellow gold push back earring settings. The holes were drilled to allow wearing as buttons for Chinese aristocrats and people of upper classes. Circa 1960s, recently acquired from a luxury private estate collector.
