Oh! May I ask if you’ve got this from favourjewelry? I wanted a piece like this, but unfortunately this meant splurging alot more than I would want to. :lol:

I actually find this on eBay . Yes the jade market has too many fake seed jades. But if you do get a real seed jade it will be raising in value every year. There’s no new digged out seed jade anymore. Chinese people have been treasure and mining hetian jade over 9 thousand years. the new jades will be in very deep undergrounds the cost will be too high for digging and has been banned by government. Hope you will find one perfect jade for yourself ^^

Hi Jadies,

Just wanted to share... the heart and the earrings I've shared before, but I recently found a necklace to that matches the heart. You all know how much I love beads. This necklace has a loop to attach & switch out pendants.

Love seeing all the bracelets, beads, pendants, and more from all of you.

I am on the hunt for a chubby round princess bangle. I'm only budgeting for one 'fancier' piece, and returns, especially international returns, are a true pain, so I really don't want to make the wrong pick. But it's hard for me to judge from photos and videos when I've found a piece that I love and is also cost effective. Like, I love the princess bangle here, but it's double the price of the d-shape next to it. To my eye it's maybe a touch more translucent, but is it *that* much more valuable?!

Alright for a bangle with a good translucence and nice scattered flower pattern. I expect it to be pretty expensive, so personally I’d ask the seller alot of questions, mainly is there a certificate (then check the certificate in it’s website), and ask for photos in natural lighting along with the usual, is it untreated and such.
I would personally do this as this is what you’d consider a fancy bangle and those types usually deserve to have a high price. So it’s really best to show the seller that you aren’t kidding with wanting the bangles to be untreated and such.
Now regarding the prices, you can always negotiate for it, I assume the D-shape one costs more due to more material of the jade was used to make it wider and has more of the scattered flower patterns whereas the princess is just thicker and has alittle less than of the scatter flower pattern the D-shaped one
