Mandarin Necklace

A necklace of pale jade beads with green jade accents, strung in a long loop with a central panel set with a green cabochon in a metal frame. Coral bead strands and jade drops hang from the lower sections, and a green-and-pink drop hangs at the base.

Look closer: Small blue-and-gold enamel fittings join the upper beads at the top left and right near the clasp.
