I have Google Chrome installed as a web browser, so I use Google Translate is an option for translation. Itʻs not perfect, but itʻs enough to get the gist of the information on the page.
Love my new pendant 
I haven't but I decided to check the site out when you mentioned it and I honestly find their jade too pricey for how earthy toned they look, including the dyed pieces (which fortunately they're kind to list them as dyed)
Although on the bright side their pendants and rings seem to almost always be on a precious metal setting with diamond accents.
You are lucky? Its hard to buy Jadeite online, but what options do we have when not located in Asia?
So need to find a reliable shop and truthful shop, with reasonable prices, this is the tough part
I have been looking at items from JadeiteRoom, UltimateJadeite, Churkworkshop, Jadeburi, and some others.
I bought some items from GoJade but returned them since the bangle was really grey upon in person
JadeiteRoom has some funky certificates, some of them are exactly the same as I seen on eBay chinese sellers.
She must source from same supplier but better quality products. Though this cannot be 100% confirmed Type A
Anyone owns guatemala jade? I bought one oval shaped one from a live sales last night. Took a screen shot
That is beautiful!
I have only a bead and a bi pendant. Haven't found "the one" for bangles yet which I feel comfortable with buying
Love the mixture of colours of your bead bracelet - so refreshing!
I've always admired Guatemalan jade and how they come in such a pretty blue color! Although I am curious if the blue jadeite is in anyway similar to the Chinese "Blue Water" jadeite counterpart since they both look visually similar.
So envious of those in SG. Have viewed some of the live sales. But only can view as they sell to locals only . Gorgeous pieces and great prices. Plus point is the certs they come with.
Just came back from my appointment at Ultimate Jadeite.
It was at Nandar’s place, and she showed her bangles in her living room. She gave me a few options according to my budget range, and I keep coming back to this black and green one. Presenting to you my first bangle from UJ
Nandar was incredibly lovely and we shared very candidly about our knowledge of jadeite. All around, very pleasant experience.
Nandar’s photos of her bangles for sure does not do justice. The bangles are a lot more beautiful in person.
Highly recommended!
