Hi Ladies!

I am new to Jade, read this beautiful thread here and now I want to try a round bangle in a D- shape. Can you recommend any seller or shop, maybe on eBay oder Etsy? I read the thread about the jade sellers but I wonder if these informations are old. And I live in Europe, so maybe there are also trustable sellers in Europe.

Thank you ladies!
The best experience I've had so far is with UltimateJadeite on Etsy. Nandar, the owner, is very responsive and the descriptions of her bangles are transparent in that she will say if there are flaws and what kind they are, or if the bangle is flawless. She will also send more photos if you want a better view than what is shown on the site.
 
And so the live sale just updated me one of my bangles is done.

Before and after. It’s in light lavender.

How exciting. I love the fact that your bangle is custom fit and made for you.
I've been on a budget and haven't bought any jade bangles in a couple of years. Back in 2019, I was eyeing this one from jadeiteroom and it was $1000. Then it went up to $1500. And today I noticed it's now priced at $5000!! https://www.etsy.com/listing/720966343/jade-bangle-550mm-217-oval-shape-icy?click_key=300fe841df1644a8c1816eca447531ad6d8c9450:720966343&click_sum=0d392f17&ga_search_query=purple&ref=shop_items_search_4&frs=1&sts=1 - How do you justify that kind of price jump?!

I've bought once from jadeitroom back in 2018 before her prices skyrocketed. Since then, I've only bought from UJ. I haven't noticed an increase with UJ's items, thankfully.
Sometimes the pricing is all over the place. I can't fathom why some pieces are over the top expensive for what it is and others are reasonably priced. That kind of increase is price gouging imo.
I love looking at everyone’s jade bangles. I received my latest one today and am in love . It’s spicy green on one side and paler green on the other - love the way the colour blends. My first purchase from Little Jadeite House and it was so positive .
I love the colour! Enjoy your new bangle.

Hi! I’m in England and have made several purchases from Yokdee and Ultimate Jadeite (both in Singapore). UJ describes any flaws and stone lines up front but I have bought a couple of bangles from Yokdee and from careful inspection, found some feelable stone lines which have been minor but I would have liked to have known about them, especially as I had specifically asked. However, my recent experience with Little Jadeite House has been great - and they do NGI certificates for added assurance. They have a smaller collection of bangles which is regularly updated on Insta and Jay is really responsive and honest. Husk & co have some really affordable bangles and lovely jewellery - and if you’re looking for a cheaper option, GoJade on eBay is okay, but their photos seem enhanced so your bangle is likely to not be as vibrant as the images. I have also purchased some lovely type A jade pieces from Grade Jade By Melody on Etsy, but not a bangle. Happy collecting .

Nice piece. I got something from LJH too. I think his items are fairly priced. I was considering one of his bangles until I found an alternative source.

I'm so curious to know what kind of jade bangle collection do you all have? How often do you rotate wearing the ones you have? This is just for photo purposes, and I obviously don't wear them all at once! But I think after accumulating 6 bangles, I think it's time to stop. Haha! Clearly I have a thing for white/pale green/pale lavender colors. But I do love the black one, which is a Wyoming jade. The others are jadeite.
