Lol I had to correct my spelling error - I meant kiss of sun
Your bangle is very creamy and beautiful!!
Have an awesome day [emoji3]

LOL no worries! I hate autocorrect. I have seen much worse, you should see the typos my husband’s mom sends me. HILARIOUS [emoji23]

Have a great day too my friend [emoji5]

I purchased another bangle from the same seller as my everyday hetian bangle. I can’t wait to get her. I’m super stoked about her, I hope she is as pretty in person.

oooh, I love this! Especially the carvine -- very nice! May I ask who the seller is?

Question, the guy I've bought from (only-jade) has bought a couple bangles for me from another seller. They appear to have good certificates (good lab and they pull up online) and they "check out" via specific density, 10x loupe and use of the black light. One of my bangles is "icy" with just a tiny touch of green threading in it. It has some tiny light brown "seeds" in it and "cotton" but otherwise is clean. A friend who knows jade looked at it and said she thought it was treated based solely on "feel". When I asked him he said he was certain it was grade A but if I want to send it on to GIA for certification I should, and if it comes back that it's been treated he will refund the cost of the bangle and the test 100%. Should I send it in? Is there any way to know that it's polymer treated other than testing at a lab? I think it is fine but I am considering another expensive bangle from this same seller and don't want to compound a mistake if I've made one (yes, last night's mis-adventure has me a bit nervous!)

Someone wrote about the black bangles from 3jade (IWHLVR? ). This was not expensive and is VERY shiny. Much more than in the picture,

CR this new one is so cool. I haven’t seen this kind of carving texture before. Can’t wait to see mod shots.
The one your wearing today is an awesome piece too.

Can´t capture the black one. It is very evenly, black () and glossy

Thanks, Pursenut! What are you wearing today?

Last night I was looking thru Only Jade and also UJ. They both have some green and yellow items. Made me think that a chunk of this color jade has been processed and purchased by sellers and there for hitting the markets. UJ has a gorgeous pendant in this color, a rooster I think.
