Of course a little different since I’m a guy but just got what I think is my last bangle from Mason Kay.

You bangle is so beautiful Dillemuth - fits you nicely and is translucent.

I keep going back to the pictures of your ring to take another look! No need to worry about sending lots of pictures. Did you design the ring? Your jeweler is a great crafts-person. I love how the new setting gives a nod to Ming's original designs yet it has clean, modern lines to let the jade take center stage. It is breathtaking. I might get distracted while driving if I were wearing something like it. LOL.


Dillemuth, your bangle is a real beauty. Like a tall, cool glass of lemonade. Great find and it fits you so well.

Thank you so much! My jeweler is wonderful. I took the ring in to him and said, " What can be done to save this gorgeous jade?"

You know how sometimes you get just the right jingle and just the right “feel” with a stack? I managed to get that today.

The color of this bangle is gorgeous!

wow, this is so translucent!

Yes not really icy but maybe watery. Also next to forest green it looks blue, but next to any blue it looks very green

It is absolutely stunning. What a great find, beadweaver. Clear and luscious like a warm sea and the blue colour is tdf!

Thank you! I thought I would snap a picture to show that the makers mark made it though the repairs. I was happy about that.

Your jewelry did an amazing job designing your ring. So simple yet elegant to showcase the beautiful jade. It’s great that the the Ming’s stamp is still visible.

Hello everyone, it’s been years since I posted here but I haven’t stopped collecting or wearing jade.

Today I am wearing this lovely lavender and green bi disk, and my carved lavender bangles.

I have a couple of photos of the light and dark lavender bangles in the sun. They are lovely, not perfect, but I like their heft and character.

Hope everyone is doing well in the universe!

I’m really sorry but I can’t seem to upload any photos, very weird!
