Necklace with carved Black Jade and pear shape Emerald
The designer of this piece provided us with wax carvings to show us how they wanted the pieces of Black Jade shaped.
There are 5 separate pieces of carved Black Jade. The center piece of Black Jade is pear-shaped like the center Emerald. The Emerald is mounted in a pear-shaped gold bezel and sleeve which inserts into a pear-shaped hole cut into the Black Jade.
The two far outside pieces have a series of ribs carved into them. On each side of the center piece are pieces of Black Jade which overlap both the center piece and the outer pieces.
