Jade4me,thank you! I am wearing the usual...Siberian with Edwards on the left. I was wearing the Siberian more often then the Edwards, but then I started feeling guilty because we exchanged them for vow renewal last year, as we did with the Siberians this past spring. my husband constantly wears his. I truly think his Edwards look better on him then mine does on me because of the masculinity of the size, lines and proportions on him. Since I started wearing the Edwards again, I feel it gives me courage and strength, which I need for my life at the moment, so now it's both Siberian and Edwards. If I want to wear another bangle, I have to stack them together.

Your EB is very elegant on you like a LBD! But your Siberian is sublime and I can't imagine a day apart from it. A bangle like that, and luckybunny's and zipcount's Hetian bangles are like my ultimate dream bangle. But I think one would be out of my comfort zone in price. So I'll admire others from afar!
Beautiful Claire! I love sapphires too. My husband got me a sapphire ring as an 8 year anniversary present and it is one if my favourites.
Big Blue fits you like a glove. Is it difficult to put on and take off? I love the look of snug bangles but yours looks like it would be painful - worth it though
Also wanted to say that Big Blue has a lot more blue than most bluish green jade. Where did you find her?

Awe, thanks Jade4me. The Edwards is not as wide as the Siberian, and Ive found that I prefer the wider width. I was seriously considering having the Siberian the same as the Edwards for stacking purposes, but then I received blue velvet, loved the width at 23mm and thought...it's my only chance to have a wide Siberian, and that difference is what makes me enjoy the Siberian on me a little better then the Edwards. But, I am attached to the Edwards in a special way.
I think you have such a wonderful collection of most unusual and dreamy nephrite bangles. I've always admired yours deeply!

Here are a few throwback pics that I thought were somewhat artistic. No new ones for me today, have been in bed the past two days with the worst head cold ever, now settling into my chest. Ugh. What color jade is best for energy /physical healing?

Sorry to hear you have a cold Crosso. Hope you feel better soon.
What an amazing collection of jade you have and you have a knack for taking great pics!
I love your mint green with orange dots best but they are all lovely!
Not sure what colour jade is most healing but I remember reading white jade is good for the lungs and since you have a cold maybe wear white jade...

Jademommy, thanks! It's decieving because it's not at all tight, but sometimes sticks there from skin moisture. It's a 58.5, and I find it's an easy on and off bangle. I've squeezed into a 55, which is quite tight, and feel a tad claustrophobic with that tightness.
In the pic, she is very blue-ish, but she has many color moods depending on the light. It's got lavender clouds in it, and that reddish cloud on one spot.
This was my first grade A bangle after I bought a B grade, before I knew anything about jade. It was suppose to be my 40th birthday present, which was purchased 8 months before my birthday. The plan was that he was going to hold it in hiding until the day...but he ended up giving me it the day it came. So, when my birthday did come, he gave me that antique sapphire ring in the picture.
Upon purchasing it, I told my husband that I only wanted one. Ha! Little did I know what a passion it would start. I got it at jadefinejewelry. It was from the previous website, and was love at first sight!
I am glad you're a sapphire lover too! I'd love to see your ring! The bigger round sapphire ring which I wear on the left was an upgrade wedding set ring, instead of the one which I had before which had a yellow diamond. It was for our 4th anniversary. I love hearing stories like what you just posted! So romantic! No wonder it's a favorite!

Crosso, you rock with those gorgeous pictures! They are all such varied pieces! I admire the range in your collection. I just love that Phoenix ring. It's so gentle and pure. Do you wear it often?
So sorry that you're sick! Just make no demands upon yourself until you are thoroughly rested.

Just took a quick pic of my sapphire ring. It is an oval sapphire and there are square diamonds ser underneath the sapphire. Please excuse my dry hands. This is my 8th wedding anniversary present which hubby picked out himself. We will celebrate 14 years this month 😊
Crosso, love your artistic pictures! What are the designs on the carved bangle? Hope you feel better soon.
crosso, wear your black jades. black jades have very good healing and protective energies. feel better soon.
Thanks Claire and Jademommy! I do have quite a variety - unfortunately (for my pocketbook anyway), I've never zeroed in on one or two particular types of jade - I love them all! And yes, I wear the phoenix ring about once a week. She feels so good on my finger, not too weighty, but cool and silky.
Gorgeous, jademommy! Love the electric blue and it looks beautiful on your hand!
