Lol...I wear a bangle on each wrist... I have too many bangles that need to be loved and and worn lol...I always talk to them when I rotate them too..lol--my husband is smart enough to shut the heck up when I do..he knows I just love my jades way too much
I am too chicken to stack em, I have always admired the jade sisters on this thread who stack and show us all the pics...I will stack for pics only and ad soon as I am done, off one goes.....I am always thinking of micro cracks and such---I'm trying to keep my bangles in good longterm condition for inheritance someday
Hi all! Loving everyone's jade. Here's my stack for the day...
Baby Princess, Lippy, and the beads.
Junkenpo your two princess bangles are so dainty and fresh. They are both a mint green right. The top one - Baby looks to be more translucent. Do you usually wear them as a pair? The jade beads are sweet.
Ms Blue I'm glad I'm not the only "weird" one here wearing a bangle in each wrist 😛.
Truthfully I think it looks better to just wear one bangle in the left but yeah due to the fact that all other bangles would be neglected I sometimes wear one in the right too.
For me I don't stack mainly because of the noise. Too loud for me when they hit. Jade is so hard I'm not too worried about damage but the noise disturbs me lol

I wear at least a bangle on each wrist, everyday. Sometimes I will wear 2 on one, and one on the other. 24/7, I've got.a bangle on each wrist'l😄
I think wearing one only can look elegant, and wearing on each wrist looks more dramatic, exotic and strong.
I once met an heiress who wore imperial green bangles stacked from wrist to mid forearm, with no buffer bracelets in between, on both arms! She wore them so well, it was unforgettable thing to see, like a high priestess!😍😍
I always take off the bangle on the right before going to bed because the sound of them clinking together bothers my sleep. I only wear a bangle in my left wrist 24/7 😉
That clinking can be annoying lol! Imagine, my husband and I both wear one on each wrist 24/7.....everytime we give each other a hug...CLANK😁😅.
If I'm wearing more then one on each, I'll remove them so it's back to one at night. I guess I got used to the noise because early on, I stacked with many combined with metal Indian bangles.! I've definitely paired down since then. Btw, yours look great next to each other. The sizes are similar, and the colors are almost tinted, split compliments of each other. Very nice!

Gorgeous pics everyone! Keep them coming!
Crosso, those earrings are great with your hinged. Love those drop shapes, and have always wanted a pair! Are they heavy for all day wear?
Prettydino, that's a pretty pendant. You are so lucky to have such a meaningful jade. I understand about the nephrite appreciation. It's very ancient. I tend to feel as if I am wearing a slice of the earth's soul with nephrite somehow.
JKP, gprgeous together. The beads add just the right touch of unexpected color, while not being overbearing. I think the spacing between the beads adds A LOT of clarity/ breathing room for the eye.

Found these on eBay...the carved one has such interesting and intense colors! These hinged and braced ones are amazing too sigh.....
I am always fascinated by the variations in the different color ranges in jadeite. This is an old photo, but the difference in mood between all of these blue/greens is amazing. In this photo, one can also see the fade from dark to light blue on the hinged. That's what assured me it was made from the same piece of jade
The beads are a preloved piece from eBAy. I'll have to back and double check the seller name. Not exclusively a jade seller, but I'll do a review in the jade seller thread. I've seen a couple other similar ones offered from other sellers, one went for about half what I paid. Some sellers asking for twice as much or more.
I almost always wear them stacked together, but I will occasionally wear them separately alone. Baby princess is slightly better quality and cooler... Faint blue-green as opposed to more yellow of Lippy. Also a better polish and more round. Surprisingly strong for how tiny and thin they look.
Since I always have Smoke on the right, I need to balance so almost always have a bangle or 2 on the left. On the days I have sensitive nerves, I sub with my onyx bracelet, and now with the beads. I don't think any one really notices but me. Lol
