The JADE thread!

Just a heads up for those who haven't read through all our jade threads or are lurking or aren't familiar with how to tell if jade is grade A jadeite as opposed to nephrite, serpentine, some other jade-look-alike or colored or treated. Ying yu is on the "buyer beware" list as a seller to be careful of. Qn on jade bangle You can do a search of tPF for specifics, but in the past, several posters have stated they have felt mislead about the type, quality, and/or treatment of the stone they bought or were inquiring about from the ying yu site. Please educate yourselves about the tells of jade and comparison shop for quality/color/price from other trusted sellers. Be careful of all sellers, even the trusted ones. Make sure the seller has a good return policy before buying, always.
 
Udalrike, recently I’ve been into carved jadeite and have been exploring Jade by Nikolai. She has some beautiful carved bangles as well as rings, etc. Your beauty reminds me of her creations - crazily expensive though. I love the hint of lavender in your bangle, and the green color is really nice too!

2boys, thank you! I LOVE to wear the bangle. Can't wear it always though as it is really big and I might bang it against the wall, for example. Yes, these are two sides of the same bangle. And the French seller told me that she used to sell jewelry at the Ritz in Paris. The Ritz!!! :graucho:;)

Thank you for this. I’ve just purchased a bangle from this site, and I had the piece verified through a local jeweler that specializes in jade. Thank God I didn’t get ripped off. However, I will keep your review in mind. This is why I love TPF! We always look out for one another!

Nikolai has amazingly beautiful carved jadite, as well as Sheentiff. Both are crazy expensive. I saw a carved pendant of dark green jadite (very translucent) by Sheentiff that I have fallen in love with but I would have to win the lottery before I could buy it!
 
I wish to know if I can see a few of her icy Jade bracelets. I’m from Canada and I wish to buy & I can meet here when she’s in Canada. Thank you so much.

Hi sorry , she only sell to a few regular customers of hers in HK and will be in retirement if relocating to Canada for good soon .

In any case . Tpf has house rules , and I don’t want to be held responsible for facilitating any sales or advertorial of any private sellers . In case things are not satisfactory . Should she ever decide to have a website or selling , perhaps I would share in the jade seller list . For your kind understanding [emoji846]
