Thank you for the site referral! That website had some beauties! I also read that jojo jewel is another good one. I would love to get one in person but would need to find some reputable sellers in SF China town area. If not, online would be another option ;)

Hi DG! A poster to this forum bought from Luxe Pieces in SF - I think they are close to Union Square in SF - and was very happy. Search about 15 pages back in the forum for fluffypants posts of an icy buddha pendant. I think she got a bangle from there too. Sad to say, most places in Chinatown are selling treated jade and the prices are usually much too high. Trust me! I bought 2 there before I was educated about jade and paid too much for treated bangles!

:shocked: OMGoodness that looks beautiful on you and the color is TDF! I lean towards the darker colors as well. I will take my time on the next jade bracelet purchase and ask you kind ladies for opinions. It is so nice to have a supporting group here. Thank you for sharing your action shot.

Thank you for sharing the SF seller...I will look it up! There are so many jade shops in Chinatown and they all seem so pretty and YES they are all so pricey!!! I am leaning towards online for my next purchase. It seems like a lot of you experts go with this route. After research, so far I have a list of these trusted sellers:
Jadeite Jade on Etsy
Ultimate Jadeite on eBay
JOJO Jewel
Desire Treasure.com

Please correct me if I am wrong or if anyone would like to add others. I am trying to find a compiled list on TPF of reputable Jade online sellers.

DG, there is a thread for this!- not sure how to link this, but it is The Reputable Jade Sellers thread and there are quite a few more listed. Those listed are some of the 'safest' we've found through collective experience. There may be a few more who don't necessarily sell only grade a, but where you can find it if you are careful. Many of the ladies here are also happy to help you look if you post what you're looking for, as we all love shopping for and looking at jade, even if we're not buying for ourselves.

Perfect! I will do some searching. Need to grab a throw, tea, and find a comfy seat to do some shopping :couch: I will share any that grab my eye. I have small wrists and looking for an oval shape...
