Uli, sorry for the draggy wait. Please write and hope Grace give you a satisfactory reply.

On the pendants, I fall in love with those in the 2nd picture. But you are right. It's between the left and the 3rd one from left. Ended up reserving the 3rd one. Hard choice.

I had guessed correctly! I picked the 2 with the most contrast and then my eye was drawn to the one with the deepest dark green! ;-)

Crosso, the peach bangles are orange calcite! The natural orange color of this stone can be very vivid! Now I can tell my friend just what it is when I give it to her along with the blue chalcedony bangle and a cloudy serpentine bangle. It'd be funny if she liked the two $6 bangles more than the natural blue chalcedony from Lee! She's my BFF from childhood and her birthday is end of the year, so I need to avoid handling them so I can give then to her intact! ;-)

That is the seller I had seen! His pulldown menu is confusing and unnecessary if he's selling the exact item pictured. Are you happy with the bangle?

The bangle I received had more of the grayish/dark green/olive green section than what I perceived in the pictures posted at Etsy. Again the colors vary in real life depending on the lighting. It has grown on me but I can part with it for a cause or gifting to a good friend/cousin. Could it be serpentine rather than nephrite as advertised...I don't know. Again I am not an experienced jade buyer.

Here is my latest from UJImageUploadedByPurseForum1411132620.842496.jpg
