Thanks Red. I feel like it's a piece of real estate. lol! It's so very heavy!
& I swear that I can see water & rocks & trees. haha. . . I'm sure a connoisseur of fine jade would think that it is not very good. But for my taste, I love that it has so much going on. It so reminds me of the terrain of northern British Columbia.
Thank you ladies for all the replies!
I have a bit of a good news. My green bangle has been certified as grade A. I'm so happy to receive the news.
By the way, I also hope to buy a new bangle from JOJO. Do you ladies have any concerns about JOJO? Thanks!

Woo! Yay! So happy for you. Please post some modeling shots when you can, I'd love to see it worn.
I have a Jojo bangle. I got it last chinese new year. It took a bit to bargain down the price, and had an exchange only/ no return agreement, but I am happy. It's been my 24/7 always on (right wrist) since the tail end of December.
Huge congrats and what a fantastic find! Please post mod shots!
Jojo is considered reputable for grade A jadeite (and nephrite). Asking prices can be pricey, but you can bargain via email with them. For the pricier items you can get up 40% or maybe even more off. But it'll take patience as they may respond a bit slow. Good luck!
Uli, so sorry to hear about your lapis bangle. I wanted one too, but was hesitant because of fear of breakage. So I resigned myself to searching for a " bluish" Jade one. Before I even had a chance to look, my newest "Sweet Baby James" was before me & it was practically next door to me! Crazy huh?
Hopefully the blue will show up in a new pic(fingers crossed)

Thanks for the comps, my lovely jade sisters!
Connie, WOW, congrats!!! I'm so happy to have been wrong! What an amazing, luscious find! It's hard to find natural grade a that is so gorgeous, with that color and translucency. You are so lucky!
Molly, I love Sweet Baby James the more I see it. There is such depth to it and the swirls of blue throughout are mesmerizing!
Jade4Me, here's another "on location" shot for you. We had a wonderful day on the water today (my son wore his matte nephrite Maori fishhook, which seemed to bring good fishing luck, but alas, did not get a pic of that.)
Wish I could find a bangle the color of this water!

LOL, Molly! They are happy indeed!
My son was teasing me last night about how my toes seem to make it into a lot of our vacation photos and suggested I start a blog called "The Traveling Toe"!
