The JADE thread!

Lol yes and even worse is when I try to get a better look at other people’s bangles without them knowing.
They are the same bangle - just different sides. Most of the time I buy my jade at stores in Markham (Toronto) since we have some reputable jade stores here but this one is from Ultimate Jadeite. First time I bought from them and I’m happy with the purchase and with their customer service.
You and I have similar bangle size. I find there isn’t a big selection for the slimmer daintier bangles. This one looks beastier in the pics. It’s actually about 14 mm.

Ultimate Jadeite is quite reputable and for any Singapore based sellers you can also ask for a local cert from Nanyang lab that is trusted locally.

The French seller I bought my huge new bangle from, has this jade necklace now.

I like it very much but it is not exactly my style. What do you think?

It looks like commercial quality jade. I’m not experienced at all to tell from pics if it’s treated or untreated jade without any certification, but personally I prefer jade that has more water and translucency and also color intensity if going for green/purple jade.

Though if it is really cheap and makes you happy, then go for it.

I think it’s pretty cool to try something different Uli . It’s a bold statement type of necklace . Something u might want to take off during bed time but would be nice for a lovely date with your hubby

Udalrike, I think the jade itself is beautiful though the necklace is not my style.
Dster: It’s lovely on you wrist!!

WOW, Uli!! That necklace is gorgeous!! I love the carved beads & the carved flower! I wish the flower was on an enhacer bale so it could be removed if wanted & just the bead necklace could be worn...2 necklaces in one. Love the contrast between the colors!

Dster, your bangle is beautiful!!!

Thanks for your opinions, jadies!
I bought it.

Good idea, Cdtracing! The seller bought the peony first and had it made into a necklace then.

I think it will look lovely on you Uli as you always rock the bold jewellery [emoji8]

I looks great on you! Beautiful blend of soft green and lavender. I have a similar bangle that I have not worn in a while. May post later.
