Wearing the orange jade pendant , with a thin icy white bangle ( it’s easy to remove although it’s tiny at 54/47 , because the width is thin , it’s still okie to get it on and off the right hand fairly easily )

The icy jadeite wings was a birthday present from the mil a couple of years back , but I decided to just let my son wear it over the school holidays.

Happy Friday Jadies! For the last year or so, I’ve been collecting these sterling silver bangles. I have a bunch, so I used to switch them out like I did with jade bangles but I’ve been wearing this silver stack solid for a couple months. I decided to see what it would look like with a jade bangle and my old sterling bumper. Surprisingly, there was very little movement of any of them because they are so heavy, so I didn’t worry too much about the nephrite bangle. I wore it most of the day but it hasn’t grown on me at all lol But I figured I’d share my stack of the day ☺ Have a great weekend!

Wow looks heavy haha. Beautiful silver bangles and nephrite bangle. Do the silver bangles oxidise quickly and you have to polish them? I have some from a certain H brand but they oxidise when I don’t wear them and I can’t be bothered to polish :D

Good Morning :) Once I polish them I put them air tight bags with those little anti tarnish strips so they do not tarnish. You can get them really inexpensive on eBay. I have a couple of anti tarnish silver trays that keep silver from tarnishing and they work pretty well for my smaller pieces. I have way too many so the bags work the best and I reuse them to death lol. If you wear them in the shower the reaction with the hot water can make them tarnish, so I take mine off then. They are really addictive though, there are gals that wear them 24/7 on both arms all they way up to their elbows. My ole bones would break lol

They are so pretty!! No regrets at all! They just opened in Singapore too, I'm still contemplating between the bracelet or earrings.. oops..

Which bracelet are you eyeing? I have a pendant and ring too. Somehow can't stop at just 1 piece. I didn't get a bracelet cos of my jadeite bangles, FOPEs and other bracelets. Also not sure if the bracelet will be flipping a lot.

Just got this jadeite necklace that is carved from a single piece of jade... basically cos I find the idea of it being from a single stone and all linked quite amazing heh. So no clasp, just wear over the head. It’s apparently a chili on a chain, not sure what the auspicious meaning is supposed to be.

I sort of prefer it without the chili?

Oh my, the both the necklace and bracelet are amazing. I’ve only come across a similar bracelet sold by The Green Swivel Group down under. Would you mind posting a modeling shot of it IJ? Intrigued by these chained designs :smile:

This is so beautiful . I always admire intricately carved bangles . But I m always in klutz mode . I fear the protruding carvings can get knocked since I prefer to wear bangles on my right hand which is my dominant hand . But since you wearing on the left , should be ok . So lovely and feminine the plum and cherry blossoms !

Thank you Bernie. LOL.....I know exactly what you mean. When my jeweler showed this bangle to me I said the same thing to her. I was worried that I would knock something off. The only reason I got it is because I made her promise that if anything like that ever happened she would have her carver repair it like maybe file it down or something. I am glad that I did get it though because I haven't seen anything like this since. At the time she had about five of them that her carver carved from one boulder. I chose this one. I think she may have had some pendants too.

this seller brings in carved bangles quite often, but unfortunately usually in smaller sizes (<55mm) so I’ve not managed to snag one:
