Need to know what Gemstones are in this pretty Pendant. Chalcedony? Agate?

I'm back! 🙂 This is a very pretty 3 Piece Silver Pendant. Might be Native American? No one has been able to say for sure if the Vibrant Green Stone is Chalcedony or Turquoise; or another gemstone. The moss agate and pearl are easier to id. Any guesses appreciated!! Love learning more about the beauty of Gemstones!
Thanks again! I'll be back with more! Happy New Year!

This a little out of my wheelhouse, but to me it looks more like turquoise...but it is an unusual green color.  I have seen apple green turquoise, though.

 

Google up comparison images against green chalcedony, calcite, serpentine, maw sit sit, nephrite, jadeite, alabaster, malachite, and chlorastrolite; these are the most likely alternatives.  As I indicated, this is really not in my best area of expertise, but it looks more like turquoise to me.

Pearl and moss agate for sure.  The green stone could be variscite too; it doesn't look like turquoise of any sort. Not NA for sure.

Moss Agate is a definite.  Pearl, although I can't tell from a picture if it's real or not.  The green could be aventurine or chrysocolla or even fluorite.  It's hard to tell from a photo, but it's not turquoise.  Looks like India to me.  Not NA.

Thanks Cheryl for your input. This is a confusing piece for sure!😉So many different stones it might be. I agree it might be India. Will try to take it to a jeweler in town. Will let you all know! And it’s genuine pearl. Thanks! 🥳

The green at the top may well be amazonite too.

hmmm, I've had amazonite before, not ever looked like that though.  for sure pearl at bottome, most likely a coin pearl, I've seen those used alot in the India items.

Based on your username, I’ll take yiur advice on type of pearl😊May I contact you to help ID other pearls? This area is vast and overwhelming to me; so I’d appreciate having your help on other pieces.

Meanwhile, I’ll wait to take to a jeweler friend who’s an expert on NA pieces.

Thanks again!
