Hello hello
Back after quite a while. Wow took quite some time to go trough the thread and see all the amazing pieces everyone collected :smile:
Seeing the beautiful minty green bangle inspired me to share my latest purchase.
It's light green under direct sunlight, but changes quite a lot in artificial lighting to a bluishgreengrey tone.
It has some "flower" on one half two tiny orange dots on the other

Thanks for letting me share :smile:

Absolutely stunning! Isn't it interesting how jade can look so different depending on the lighting? It has such a moody personality. For me, that's the appeal...

Absolutely!! I also love color changing or multicolored bangles the most since you always feel you are looking at a different bangle. I nearly passed on this one since I found it too uniform looking until I had a second look and saw more Fotos in different lightings

The colours are beautiful. The hinged bangle I bought quickly grew on me. Initially I wasn't too sure when I first got it, because I was visualising something else. Now I love it. The colours vary from pale green, to off white, and cool grey all depending on the lighting.
 
After some time, the jade bug got me once again! I really enjoyed seeing everyone’s jade pieces. I recently picked up my first bangle but I think it may be smaller than I’d like. The lady at the counter said it would fit me and it does go over my hand with lotion but I tried taking it off and my hand is sore! Maybe I have to take it off quicker so that it’s not squeezing the life out of my hand for too long? Or does one get used to this?

This is the close fit I’m aiming for and I really love the look of the fit on you. Hope the soreness goes away soon. (I tried a snug one and I couldn’t bear the soreness of getting it in and out that’s why am looking for a hinged one for now)
They look great together and I imagine make quite some music :smile:
Thank you! Yes I love how they make music together :smile:.
Loving the combination. I'll have to find myself a thin one eventually. It looks elegant and fun to stack.
Thank you! Having these two ultra slim bangles certainly opens plenty of options for stacking :smile:

Thanks! Thankfully the soreness didn't last too long. I took it off and on today and it was easier taking off this time, but just a little harder to put back on. The lady at the store actually helped put this on for me initially and it wasn't painful at all. However, I haven't been able to replicate that yet haha.

I love the look of your thin bangles btw! A thinner one is on my wish list.

Thank you @cuppateatime! I’m finding these ultra slim ones very versatile.

For whatever it’s worth, I saw another video of a lady using a plastic bag covering her hand up to her wrist to ease in and ease out a close-fitting jade bangle..

Here’s wishing you an easier way of getting in and out your lovely bangle soonest.

Hello,

I’ve always been an avid follower of this thread and this will be my first time posting my Jadeite bangle that I had commissioned and customized and black Jadeite pendant that recently arrived here. I was gifted a free safety button from the merchant too.
So beautiful!

I love black jadeite. Can you share who the seller is? I adore carved bangles and yours is lovely.

Hello,
The seller is DeshunJadePavillion in IG. And he’s only recently opened up an Etsy account with same name but has more pieces in the IG account. I’ve had the bangle commissioned but the black dragon pendant I’ve purchased from his Ig store.
I’m now waiting for the rest of my fox Jadeite pendants to arrive. He’s sent me this picture before he sent it in the mail. The pieces all come with certificate.

I recently returned a bangle from ultimate jadeite because there were two stone lines and one vertical one that was pretty deep which were not advertised. Initially, she tried to say that she already sent me photos and discussed the lines but I had screenshots and reminded her that was for a sister bangle which was $900 less. If she had openly disclosed it, I don’t think I would’ve went through with the purchase. She offered me an $300 refund to keep it but the whole transaction just didn’t sit well with me. Instead, I spent $200 to have it shipped back to cut my losses. I now see she has relisted the bangle for for $300 more than my original price and didn’t change the description at all. Overall, I think she’s good at being responsive and sending extra pictures but I’m not sure if I’m ready to make a big purchase again with her.
This is all really bad!!!
