RARE Antique Chinese Nephrite Type A Red Jade Pendant set in 14K Italian Gold Up for auction is a fine and rare example of an antique Chinese Type A red jade pendant, set in Italian 14K gold.� While both the bale and the clasp are marked, every gold component of this beautiful necklace has been tested to verify it is indeed 14K.� The jade appears distinctly red on one side, and yellow on the other. The yellow side is carved in relief of what appears to be a golden or silver pheasant. The red side is carved in relief with the figure of a dragon. We took one picture with this pendant backlit by the sun (see below) - it's both stunning and brilliant!� Furthermore, the jade is neither dyed nor irradiated; see below for the photo taken under a black light which shows this to to be the natural color of the pendant (dyed jade fluoresces underneath a black light). The pendant was originally suspended in a traditional manner, as evidenced by the small hole drilled through the pendant.� The 14K gold chain measures 24 inches (61 cm) in length; the pendant measures 2 1/16 inches (5.3 cm) in diameter. Marrying richly toned Italian gold with dynastic Chinese jade, this is a stunning and beautiful piece of jewelry that would make any woman happy, and is sure to add intrinsic value to any jewelry cabinet.Ask all questions prior to bidding, as all
