The diamonds are fairly bright, and well matched, estimated total diamond weight 0.03ct. Fine feathers can be seen under magnification. Individual size and setting prevents accurate colour and clarity assessment. The amethyst are a well matched light purple, with typical inclusions that do not affect the passage of light thought the stones. There are minor surface blemishes and small nicks to some edges. The nephrite jade is flecked with light and dark specks. Jade untested for natural colour origin. The US prohibits the importation of items containing rubies or jadeite originating in Burma.
