love it so cuteI too come from a family who’s incredibly fond of jade (although I’m a late bloomer lol) and the donut bead bracelets are niche, if not just rare to find people wearing as beaded bracelets seem to be more the trend from where I live.
Also may I contribute to the gallery of jades with an early Christmas gift of a marble-looking Pixiu. (Sorry if the photos look like something out of Suzanne_corner I tried my best)

Thank you try to make sure that they clink very little and lightly they are both thick too.i just love them both, I could take my d shape off. so when I saw princess saw how thick it was .I knew it would be safe to wear together. I make sure very careful with both. I have loki rubber braclet which site nicely between them or in front when I'm relax at home .❣

give it couple days see if it improves in color gets more yummy looking.sometines wearing it for awhile helps 
Christmas has certainly arrived very early this year! 
Gojade has outdone themselves for sure. (The middle laughing buddha is my favorite due to how icy (or crushed ice) it looks, although Gojade has said that it isn’t icy.)

(The middle laughing buddha is my favorite due to how icy (or crushed ice) it looks, although Gojade has said that it isn’t icy.)Omg so much nice jade in the last few pages. Cute marble-like pixiu, icy bangles and vibrant donut bracelets, glossy laughing buddhas, and an adorable jade teapot set (!!!) and more! Wow!
I had a similar experience when I bought a bangle online earlier this year. It disappointed me as soon as I took it out of the package. It wasn't what I expected, I was actually sad and immediately wished I could find an easy way to sell it. I have mostly come around on it after appreciating it for what it was, and not focusing so much on the features that didn't live up my expectations. I'll be honest and say it's still not my favorite, but I reach for it with some outfits nowadays and surprisingly, it's by far the one that gets the most compliments from people around me. Maybe you will also find the charms in your green and lavender bangle after wearing it more.
ChloeBB, if you can't return it, I hope you warm up to your bangle. FWIW, I think it has a fresh, spring-like gradation of colors! It reminds me of blooming lilacs.

Agreed, there are jades that you just have to warm up to with time and you’ll get used to it! Also your bangle looks nice too, but I can see why you initially weren’t into it. But hey if it doesn’t work out then you can always gift it to someone who’ll like and treasure it more! (Especially when it’s December)
On another note, you guys got any plans for Christmas get togethers, or shopping? I almost always spend time with my parents so it’s personally nothing new.
Like father like son. (Right is my father’s laughing buddha, left is mine)
Still obsessing over how uniquely icy it looks that I couldn’t help but take another picture of it!

mintea, I am starting to appreciate my bangle. It’s rather therapeutic to observe the grains structure and different colors on the bangle. Each bangle deserves to be loved as they are wonderful creation of nature.
Your bangle is really lovely and I really like the color combination. The dark green patch on the lighter green base makes it soothing to look at.
Thanks , it’s not love at first sight but I liking the bangle more each day.
Wow nice collection!! I have always liked laughing Buddhas cos they look so cheerful.Christmas has certainly arrived very early this year!

The teapot & cups are really cute too.
Hi ladies, with a milestone birthday coming up in 2020 and a growing appreciation of jade, I've taken the plunge and ordered a bangle and bead bracelet from the Trusted jade sellers list here.
I'm very excited to receive them, though imagine it'll take a while since they're coming from East Asia and it's the holiday season in the West. That gives me plenty of time to plan how I can wear them!
I wear a watch on my left hand and stack whatever metal I feel like on it, and wear metal cuff on my right hand which I never take off. I think in order to protect the jade, some sort of buffer is needed...
Silicone bracelets are mentioned on this thread - can anyone share photos of what silicone/any other types of buffer bracelets they use in order to stack your jade? Or do you simply stack as you see fit and not care? Or maybe only wear a single piece of jade on each hand and not wear anything else? As a jade newbie, I'm keen to understand the options!

Oh! Hopefully your bangle and beads arrives safely and pristine! As for buffer bracelets, I've seen jadies wear silicone rubber "bead" bracelets, wood bead bracelets, telephone cord bands, and scrunchies to separate the bangles. Now for shipping time, I'd say now's definitely the good time to order something as lord only knows how many delays will happen this month since Christmas is coming before you expect it, personally for me, it takes somewhere around 2 1/2 - 3 weeks for it to arrive to the US.Hi ladies, with a milestone birthday coming up in 2020 and a growing appreciation of jade, I've taken the plunge and ordered a bangle and bead bracelet from the Trusted jade sellers list here.
