Dear Wei

The green patches were dyed, the white encrustation comes with the original stone.

They are 20th century modern made jadeite.

The ear spoon serves no fuction to pick ear wax, the sword guard will hurt your ears. It's possibly for picking/cleaning tar from the opium pipe (women smoke opium, too),and it's not long enough for snuff bottle.

Have fun
