Today my inexpensive Hetian dragon bangle arrived and I do love HER! What I love most is the way the color changes. I have a white one that does the same but the olive color is what I was looking for in this one. Each photo is of the same bangle, but just to show the shades of color in different lighting.



Teagansmum that is a big colour variation depending on the light! I love the olive green and that glow the bangle seems to give off. Can't tell at all it is inexpensive - great buy!

Beautiful, Tea! Love the colors and design and especially how glossy it is. Great find!
 
My SC package came today! Tried to get a few pics before the light went. Adore the bats! Most of the jade is really nice and I like the color variety. I can wear it with several different bangles, but for fall I think I like it best with the Hetian one, as it seems to pick up several of the different green tones. Also got this shorter pale lavender carved bead and amethyst one to wear with my carved pale lavender bangle. Will try to get better pics of this with the bangle in the sunlight, as they complement each other nicely.

I love it Crosso - I never knew bats could be so cute:) Looke great with the Herian bangle. My favourite bat is the white one with the honey coloured head. So adorable!

I love the colour variations! do post mod shots when you can. so very pretty and unique!
 
JKP, what a fantastic way o wear a beaded jade necklace! I absolute love it.
Annetok, I always smile when I see you post Egg. She's so dreamy.
Lot Love, your dream bangle will become a reality one day. Patience, and saving. ;)
NYC Princess, "Jade Boulder porn!" I laughed out loud! LOL
Molly, it does seem that local Nephrite would be more appealing after reading this. My sister stopped collecting jade as she said evey time she looked at it she would think of the under paid workers suffering to get it to us. :(
Jade4me, you always come up with the most artistic designs. I absolutely love this new one you've done.
Always New, I'm so sorry your bangle cracked, but must say how lovely it is with the charm added. It really adds to the bangle.
I hope you all enjoyed a Happy Thanks Givings!! Mine was good. This year I didn't poison eveyone with under cooked turkey!! :)


Oh you are so sweet thank you

So sweet and playful. I like the energy of your bat necklace, the length balances out the playfulness with its weight!

Baby D they do look like those ink paintings from a long time ago. My parents used to have a beautiful one on the wall. I must ask them where it went.
How nice to get mother daughter bangles :)
They look so similar but are differnt at the same time - just like moms and daughters.

Thank you! :) I love how jade pieces are works of art we can wear. Indeed we were lucky the seller had similar Jade bangles in our sizes.

Baghera very nice and oh so Canadian :)
What city are you in? I live about 1.5 hour drive from Niagara Falls and we visit at least twice a year. Love Niagara Falls and I have to say that the Canadian side of the Falls is prettier :)
By the way I'm guessing your maple leaf pendant is BC jade. Wear it with pride :)
