Thanks for the comps, JKP and Silver Mom!
JKP, Iroh and the new ring really are a perfect match! So beautiful, well done!
I fear Jade4Me was right, jewelry making is addictive! Now that I learned a few techniques and have the findings, there is no stopping me from somehow utilizing every single little piece of jade I have and tailoring the pieces that were not quite right for me. Since I shortened several necklaces, I now have a few more beads to play with. This is the last one for the weekend, it's kind of 1920s 'flapper'-ish, I think.

Thank you, Baghera! I'm happy with it - it's playful 😊
I took the fat beads from this necklace pictured below and stitched/knotted back up the original. (THANK YOU, JADE4ME, for your wonderful advice on how to do this!) I'm happier with the length of this one now too. I thought it was a bit odd how the original necklace was constructed; it was not really graduated - it just had these bigger beads stuck in the middle of the rest that were all one size. So now I have two necklaces that I like much better!

Ladies, what do you think about this one? Thanks!

Very pretty! I have to wonder though . . . The color is bright, but in somewhat diffused patches and it is super translucent . . . So unless this is an extremely expensive bangle, I would be suspicious that it is not Grade A. Which may not be important to you, but thought I should mention it. That said, it's beautiful!

Just totally amazed and in love with my new Siberian bangle from master artist Allan Spehar from Jadediver.

JKP, that pin is so unique and such details - great find!

Crosso, your reworks look awesome! You're getting really good! This is how it all starts with some of us! I'm not a lifelong jewelry maker, but definitely have been a lifelong jewelry lover! ;-)

Huge congrats Silver Mom on your new square bangle!!! Beautiful color!!! Is the shape comfortable and doesn't knock around any worse than a round shape?

What a great choice in jade and design, blackromantic! Very chic and ultra high end looking! You have lovely hands, too, with such graceful long fingers! You should be a hand model! :-)
