Hi Jadies what do you think of this bangle

https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/249...p_home_active_11&ga_search_query=jade+bangles



It is a bit bigger than what I normally wear but I like the colour, the thickness of it and price is very reasonable.

I've never ordered from Ultimate Jadeite.


I like the greenish blue spot. I'm not a big fan of brown personally but the translucency is nice! :) The lavender I just ordered is from UJ and lots of women here have ordered from Nandar.
 
Has anyone ever tried selling jade bangles? Where do you sell them? There are some pieces I don't really wear anymore. They aren't very valuable so I'm not sure it's worth trying frankly. There isn't a big market for it here in NYC it seems. Not sure if maybe eBay is a way to go. The main one I'm thinking of is an oval Yukon I got from Allan. The polish and carving is impeccable but it's a bit darker than I like and therefore hardly worn it.

I'm still thinking about it. The size may be an issue and although they accept returns I really don't like returning things.
I saw the smaller bangle that you were considering - I like it too but I'm not too fond of the green in it. I don't mind green and lavender together but it really depends on the look. I think the lavender is too vivid to have the forest green. Maybe if it were a pale sage or apple green it will look nicer

I think if you like it and fit it, it might be worth considering to get it and try it on. I think the deeper purple spots are very uncommon at this price point due to the albite combination. She explained that albite is white also, so not noticeable to the eye. The purple is from the jadeite. She may be willing to negotiate as she intended to make 56 for the whole lot but there was one small piece left over which allowed for this small bangle to be carved.

I'll add this to my list of bangles I want....
