I totally understand you! I'm sometimes torn between looking for stuff online, knowing I never ever could afford it (or maybe just if I would eat rice and beans for the next years ) and simply not looking at all so there is no temptation in seeing all this beautiful stuff :nuts: But I'm a super visual person-I NEED to look at well made amazing things even if I don't own them...
It's something my husband will never get, he just looks at things he knows he can afford and then buys them :shocked::amazed:

Yes , he has something important to say, Dingo.

Kaa says: I am the first and after me there will be others. Some as beautiful as me, some maybe more beautiful.
But for my owner I will always be the most beautiful. And I really should be as I am permanent.....:happydance: :drinks:

Yeah! Took a better picture where you can see the lighting glare along the top ledge of the bangle and it’s still juts in a bit on the inside ledge.

Funny you mention this, as my permanent bangle has a cut that none of my other bangles have. I found a seller who has the same cut as mine and this is what she said.

"older style comfort-cut (slightly curved inner to provide much smoother wear & easier to put on/off)"

Here's a photo of hers. It's no wonder I never take mylasia off as she is the most comfortable bangle I own.

Here is Mylasia with that same cut, where the inner isn't flat like a normal D-shape.

Beautiful and interesting looking bangle! I didn’t knew that there are other cuts than princess and D-shape [emoji54] Good to know that this cut is comfortable! Having worn just one princess and a D-shape bangle I have to say that I prefer D-Shape as well for a permanent bangle. Princess is super elegant though [emoji846]
