Jade 4 me I love that bangle! Ultimate Jadeite has some grey black bangles but they are too big for me. Is yours dark green under certain light or is it a true black grey?

Thanks its a true black grey! What sizes does UJ have? Should I be tempted?? ;-)

Thank you @jade4me and @crosso. :)

@jade4me: black-gray is actually quite attractive! There's such a mysterious air to it. The ones I've seen are mostly in big sizes though, so I will have to hunt for one that might call to me :)

Thanks! Yes, they do tend to be larger and this is one of the "smaller" ones at 56mm.

Thanks all [emoji4] We're definitely still in our honeymoon period, can't stop looking at her! No sign of any other Jade wearers here yet though...

Jade4me, I had the bangle already. It's a custom (like most of my stuff) stainless steel piece made by an artisan here in the UK. Was a gift last Christmas and each side bears the first and middle names of my two boys along with their "nicknames". It's hand stamped and in a font that makes it illegible unless you look closely, otherwise it looks just decorative. It works fab as a spacer as the sides are flat, and my Jade makes an awesome sound when they touch! Every time I change gear in my car there's music [emoji3]

Hello does this look like grade a Jade to you?

I'm not as knowledgeable as many of the Jadies here but I would say that it is A grade untreated because usually treated jade bleaches out all brown spots and there is a more uniform colour.
This bangle is pretty. I love the little bits of colour. Is it yours or a bangle you are thinking of getting?

Because I know the bidding will go way higher than my comfort range, I wanted you all to see this. How neat is this banding! I'm thinking Rice would look really pretty banded like this in white gold or silver. She's got major cracks in 3 areas that are like an inch long each.

Very unique! I'm curious, how high do these type of Jade bangles fetch? or maybe the right question is.. what's the average price? Curious because where I'm from in Asia we hardly see these types of Jade bangles.

Ok. legit. envious! haha. Gosh... such a gorgeous Jade family :love:

Also, Churk sent pics of Lila with her new hinge/clasp. Hopefully she will be on the way back to me tomorrow! He added gold to make the hinge clasp thicker, as well as adding pins to make it more secure. I think I'm going to be very happy with the end result.

Ooo!!! Love it!!! Lila looks gorgeous with the gold accents. The contrast is beautiful.

I'm definitely not an expert, but maybe color polish was used as the green and lavender looks a bit bright and slightly false??? However, the price tag may hint at any color polish or not. However, unfortunately color polished jadeite is still considered A grade.


Hey jadies with dainty hands looking for a black jadeite bangle - check this one out:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/311463781398


It's an impressive width at 24mm, so if it were just 1-2mm bigger I'd consider it for myself! ;-)
