Thank you two boys. Best Easter wishes and dreams of jade to you. Guess who we ran into when we went on our morning walk this morning in Waikiki. ADAM SANDLER the actor. LOL Here are some pictures I took of my Easter bangle under different lighting. The first one is under the mall lighting. And the second photo is under plain sunlight.

And this one is under regular sunlight.

Silver Mom, the lavender bangle is so gorgeous. The colour is very intense. Love the adorable bunny.

Have a great Easter.
 
Silver Mom, do you notice that the colour will get deeper if you wear it continuously?
It really seems to have to me but everyone I asked said that it has no scientific reason to. Honestly, I really think it did. Except for my one friend who really is a jade expert. He told me that by wearing your jade the oils from your body should help it to get clearer and sometimes darker. He said that jade has many capillaries and the oils from your body can seep in and that helps with the translucency. I really believe him jadelover because he is very very smart when it comes to jade. My personal jeweler Alice says the same thing as my friend who is a jade expert. She tells me to wear my jade all the time so it can improve. I think I am leaning toward believing Alice and my friend though because my jade bangles really do tend to get better with wear. They certainly seem to be a lot shinier and brighter in color. So it comes down to two very popular jade companies believing no scientific reason and my personal jeweler and a jade expert who I admire saying that they believe it does improve by wear.

Hi all! Happy Easter!

Silver Mom. one of my friends posted he and his family got to meet Adam Sandler this weekend, too. He sounds like a nice guy in person.

For most of my bangles, I don't notice much of a change in color or translucency... For the latest carved and my black bat bangle, both were very dry when they came. Showering with them and wearing them has seemed to let them soak up and now both look/feel less dry... Opeapea (black carved) does seem to shine more now, too.

Here's a pick of my Leaf. She's the most translucent of all my bangles, but has lots of internal and surface reaching flaws. I called her leaf because the brown spot looks like a fallen brown leaf on frozen ice.

I find Leaf seems to get very translucent. I do believe that with constant wear the jade will get shiny and colour will deepen plus clouds gets lighter.

I really think this one is so beautiful and unique. Such a beauty. Reminds me of fall leaves. Adam Sandler IS really a nice guy. He is so patient with everybody wanting to take pictures with him. He is cool!

I love the traits of your bangle. It reminds me of autumn leaves and mosses freezing on the banks of a lake or river in early winter, or thawing in early spring. Such a beauty!

So, I took off my blue & white bangle from the left hand to try to move it to my right for a snugger fit. Although no tears, I do remember yelling when I thought it was stuck half-way on. But, it's much more comfortable now, and I have a wider variety of what I can wear on the left since I don't have to coordinate any longer.

And I finally got an accurate color picture in indirect light while it was off. It's definitely my favorite!
