I love the two sides of this bangle. This side is very earthy with the greens and the the yellows like a sunset or sunrise and the other is lovely peaceful lavender. This bangle looks like it would be difficult to put on and take off. It’s a very close fit - looks amazing on you!

Thanks 2BJM! It’s actually bigger than fleur at a 59. It’s pretty easy to put on. I think it’s the width, it’s thinner than most bangles I buy. Makes my wrist look super chubby LOL

Not at all - you and your bangle look great! Maybe the width of the bangle does change the look or how fitted a bangle is.
Do you Jadies find princess bangles tend to look bigger on than d shape even if the inner diameter is the same?

Hi 2boys, I definitely find that round bangles look bigger as they stick out more. D creates kind of an illusion for the eye as the missing bottom round portion of the round would be inside one's arm.

This totally back, even in sunlight, nephrite.

I agree the round bangles look clunkier as they stick out more but I wonder if the gap seems bigger too. I think it does. I love princesses but they are painful to put on when they are close fitted.
I just switched to my black nephrite too. Mine looks dark green in the sun but it’s not too sunny out right now so it looks all black.

Love it when the mailman brings jade. A newbie to the family.

Wow, teagansmum! Your new bangle looks amazing It looks blue-green on my screen - is it the same colour in person?

Taken by my hubby when I sent him for work this morning!

jadeitelicious, how vibrant is that patch of green! Looking at it will definitely make you calm

Dragon Tracks came in the mail today. her!

Blue green and black pattern just like the pictures, and I think I am keeping the name. There are a lot of those white lines that people were looking at for cracks before and a couple of lines I can actually feel with my fingernail. I think the seller should have disclosed these, but I am fine with it for the price and it doesn't matter anyway because she is staying.

The energy of jade is amazing. When I put her on, I felt instantly and powerfully protected. I will try to get more pics of the lines.

jadeitebear, I'm so happy that you like the new bangle! She looks just like the seller's photos. Too bad they didn't disclose about the flaws though. You should have raised a complaint at the very least!

CRose, I am loving all the colours in your bangle! You should definitely wear her more, and show us more photos

Yes, I think my princess looks slightly bigger than my D bangle, even though they are the same size. The flat inner of the D makes it look more flushed to the skin!

Wonder why my comment didn’t post. I don’t think this app likes me [emoji4]

Yes 2BJM, I agree. I feel that princess bangles look chunkier. I like princess bangles more but d shapes are more comfortable for me.

I’m sad to hear that you should go bigger in princess bangles. I just ordered a chunky white nephrite and they only had it in a 57 hmmm. My lemonade is huge at a 61. I really wanted a vintage bangle that I could know its history, so I purchased her from a lady that wore her her off and on for 25 years. Sweet lady [emoji5]

Somehow I thought one can put on a smaller princess than a D. Something about just one point contacting the wrist when it slides on, like a really narrow D, since wider is harder to slide on and narrower is easier, but I may be totally wrong here. Because my only princess is 2mm larger than my Ds, hmmm. I really hope your new bangle fits you! It sounds like a nice bangle to give a new home to.

2boys, I see what you mean now, duh. I have to think about the gap for a princess. Yay, for your black jade! It looks absolutely black with no green tinge whatsoever.

It looks all black most of the time but under the sun it’s dark green and sometimes I see a faint swirls and also tiny sparkles under bright sun.

I think for some it’s easier to put on a princess bangle but for me I find d shape easier especially with soap. Maybe a chubbier princess won’t hurt as much but the slim princesses are painful!

 

[LunaDoo]

I have slimmer princesses in my usual size(s) and yes, they hurt more to squeeze on. I like the closer fit of the D shapes.

I am wearing Hope today as usual! I think I will have her on until my wedding day

Thanks Jadies! We will see what happens. It was the only one I could find that had a small dendrite pattern [emoji4]

Congratulations, when is the wedding?

It’s a yucky day, so I am attempting to brighten it up a little. Enjoy your day Jadies [emoji16]
