CR, I’m still on the lookout for my purple princess, aka my next dream bangle. :)

Hi Silverstar! Are you looking for jadeite? Finding a purple princess bangle is so difficult. This purple in hetian has been pretty undesirable for a while and has sold very cheaply in the past. I have always loved it. Especially ever since a friend of mine gave me a bangle that was too small for her and she couldn’t return it. After getting that bangle, I have been obsessed with this color in hetian or nephrite.

I hope you find your purple princess soon [emoji5]

I did get my white hetian bangle with dendritic in it today and it is pretty chubby at 13.5 millimeters. It is a 56.8 and I got it on pretty easy. I was very worried about the size, as I’ve watched this bangle for two months or so. I’m very glad it went on easy and I am really happy with it. I know we were talking about the pain in putting on a thin princess versus a thicker princess, so I just wanted to share my experience [emoji4]
 
Hi all!

Uli, love that rose on the beads. Gorgeous carving. I'd love something like that on a hair stick.

I'm trying to rotate my collection more. Here are my agate bangles sandwiching my small carved princess.

Beautiful delicately carved bangle JKP. I like the agate princesses too [emoji4]
 
Dug our the lighter purple princess. What is everyone wearing today? I will definitely put a bumper between these two [emoji16]View attachment 4424166

I love both these bangles. The chocolatety purpley brown looks so yummy. Which of the two do you prefer - the princess or the d shape in this stone? I love both but the d shape one really showcases the stone.

I like the princess shape, but I like the color in the d shape more. It’s so hard to get a picture on my phone of what the color actually looks like in person. I have been wearing the d shape for the last couple days and I do find that shape more comfortable. I just got my chubby princess, so I will see if I can wear it 24/7. It was on my HG list which was white hetian with dendritic in it, I know that may not be desirable but I love it

Thanks essiedub! Sometimes it will say lavender hetian or nephrite [emoji4] Sorry I missed this. I still have a horrible cough that tired me out, so I went to bed early.

What size bangle do you wear?
