Thanks!

Thanks and yes it's new!

Thanks and in this case I'm craving crème carmel! ;)


Here her colors look closer to real life.

It's stunning Jade4me. I love the colour and I agree it looks great against your colouring. And yeah it would be like a nude colour pair of pumps that go well with many outfits. May I ask where you found it?
 
It's a little over cast, so I think back light pictures are up next, but here are some shots that show the variety of color in the darker sections. Tans & dirty greens... like cooked spinach. lol

Sorry to load with so many photos of these earrings, but I like them much more than I expected. I was worried they'd be too heavy, but once clipped on, I don't notice them much. Easy to wear all day, and I find that the older I get, the more I prefer studs to danglies.

I've always preferred stud earrings too - these are a substantial size and make a statement. The dark green makes it great for night time as well as day. You can certainly dress them up as they are very classy looking.
 
I've actually admired this one for awhile! For me it'd be a wear for at least a week at a time bangle because of the pain factor, which I know you can understand! :smile1: But I've not yet run across that dream bangle that makes me want to not take it off for at least a week or more, and I'm not even considering price when I say this... I love all the varieties of looks in jade bangles too much! :graucho:

You like this one too.... I am still deciding between the two as well as two others I've seen in real life. One is a skinny but not not flat d shape lavender and the other is mostly white / pale lavender with a bright orange patch. The white and orange one is quite expensive for me.
Did you see other one I posted from ultimate jadeite? Which of the two do you like better?

And I think that 48 green princess would look very pretty on your wrist. It is dainty and would encircle your wrist beautifully if you got it hinged:)

Jademommy, are you thinking about one of those bangles more then the others? What makes us decide to chose one bangle out of a selection, is so fascinating!

JKP, I love the flowy, glowy ring. Love the shaded lavender and the floral gold...first thing that came to mind was 'secret garden'. Love that big and beautiful size too! I hope it's meant to be yours eventually.

Of course you need to decide which draws you in more, but I prefer this one - though at the moment you can tell I'm partial to the browns...

What do you think of this one? When I looked at their store in your size, this caught my eye. :graucho:

Aerinha, a wonderfully unique set! Must be loads of fun to wear with certain tops! Thanks for posting it. I love the unique finds that one can discover in estate jewelry!


Thanks! I have been meaning to post it for a while and finally got around to doing it.

What a great looking set! Gorgeous color and very unique shapes. I'm positive someone one here will be able to translate the character for you. Any ideas about whether it is jadeite or nephrite?


No idea if it is nephrite or jadeite. If I was making a guess, nephrite, but I couldn't say for sure :smile1:
 
Happy birthday to your daughter! Getting her pink bangle back later will seem like an extension of her birthday celebration!

What stunning unique pieces! I'm guessing it's nephrite jade? Do you wear them often?
I wear the necklace on special occassions, but have never worn the earrings. This is embarrassing, but I can never manage to screw screwback earrings on. Usually they fall off or I close them nowhere near my earlobe.

Well I am but I also want to slow down since there really is an unlimited amount of beautiful jade but I do have a limited budget:) I want to be very sure of my purchases.
For me it is based in a feeling and it is easier to decipher if It is the right one if I can see it in person. I'm still in the thinking about it stage sigh...

Thank you for giving your opinion jade4me:) both you and Claire prefer the fiery orange and green bangle...
Thank you also for showing me this bangle. I do like it and the colours are quite dramatic. It would not be on my list of possible buys since that list is getting too long but it is pretty - thank you though for thinking of me and sharing 😊

I saw that second one and it's right up my alley,

I think my tastes are branching out, but with the bangle plus earrings recently, I am tapped out for fun spending. lol DH and I are talking about replacing my 2004 civic coupe, esp now that DS is making friends and have 4 doors would help with toting kids around. DH's of the mind I should upgrade, but I like that I can pretty much park a civic anywhere.


These UJ smallers get me, too.

Jademommy, I understand completely. Me too...I want to be very sure of my purchases. For me, I need to not get ahead ofyself with too many projects to complete or else I'll never be able to hinge my sliced bangle lol!

It's so hard to stay focused at times though. I found myself lusting for this grey, translucent, gourd bead, nephrite Jade bracelet on live auctioneers lately...even though I wouldn't have worn it much and was unrelated to everything I have other then the fact that it's Jade lol. Crazy, this jade love😆.

Thank you Junkenpo - so now that is three Jadies who prefer the fiery orange and green one over the soft green and browny blush one:)
I looked at that honey brown one too!
