For Grade A bangles, I have paid as little as US$11 ($3 bangle plus $8 shipping) and high as low four figures.

Wow! A grade A bangle for $11 is such a steal! And it looks gorgeous!

I can see why the four figures bangle is that price.. beautiful translucency and colour.

Thank you so much for sharing this!

:)
 
What a great collections! Your wide D shape is my favorite.



I guess it must be the season for illness, my DS has the worst chest cold/cough, at least the fever is gone now. I hope you and your baby heal up, too.

Your hetian is lovely. I am in love with nephrite, too.

Your low four figures is beautiful!!!
 
OH my! I love that black one! It's very pretty! I like your carved bangle as well!!!!! I want a wide one like that someday soon!!! They're so pretty!!!
thank you for the compliments on my bangles, ms_loka :smile1: yes, i am very happy to finally get a black jadeite bangle, and its certified grade A too. i've been wanting one for the longest time but all those i saw, were all too big, and i prefer snug bangles. so u can imagine how thrilled i was when i found this one. :heart::love: and my wide carved is my absolute favorite. i actually will miss her if i am not wearing her. hahahahaha... :p
 
And!


Here's my latest addition... pre-loved nephrite beads!

JKP I love how the beads are spaced out in your nee bead bracelet. It makes it dressier. I posted a pic of my heads a few pages back and it is somewhat the same colour as this so maybe they are nephrite.
Your Yukon snow looks good as always too 😉
 
What is the difference between wearing it on the right or left wrist?
t

Traditional Jade bangles are worn on the left because it is closest to your heart and since Jade protects you that is the wrist you should wear it on. I definitely do see a majority of women wear it on the left. However a lot of us here wear it on both wrists. Interestingly I do know of one person who wears only one bangle and it is in the right. Eva Chen - she is an executive at Instagram. If you google her you will see she has a beautiful princess bangle on her right arm which apparently she can not remove.
Anyone here wear only a bangle on the right ?
 
I'm trying to find my forever bangle but I'm torn on colors. What does the hive think of the two bangles below? Both are around $500usd. I wish I could see them in person before ordering online to get a feel for what speaks to me but the stores near me are like what a previous poster mentioned, either really low quality jade being passed off as grade a or big chains with hefty price tags. This will be my first bangle and I intend to wear it for a really long time.

Oh gosh, the second for me hands down. But that's because I feel the ones with small amounts of colour or splotching have more character and more versatility. So they definitely work for me as 24/7 bangles.
The bangle in the first image is beautiful but too fussy to me. I feel it's a loud statement piece and would "wear me" to have it on all the time. But you might dig that so that's your perfect every day bangle! It's always such a personal choice.

Dster I recognize the first bangle from Ultimate Jadeite's website right?
I like both but for a 24/7 bangle I would choose the second one. The first one has so much personality and would be great if you wanted to get a second bangle but you mentioned this maybe your forever 24/7 and so I would pick the lavender with the spot. It is very soothing and will go with everything.
Which one calls out to you more?
 
Yes the first one is from ultimate jadeite and the second is from JYBeautyAT. Has anyone worked with this seller? I really love the lavender shade ever side I first saw one but for some reason I was also envisioning something green for my first piece. Is that silly? Between the lavender and the one below, which would you pick? ImageUploadedByPurseForum1446213743.325058.jpgImageUploadedByPurseForum1446213761.247072.jpg
 
Great collection Lotslove. I love your black bangle with the diamond cuts best. Soon you will have your new bangle to add to the collection:)


Yes I will by the end of the month in so excited [emoji126][emoji126] because of the carving u have to be very careful putting it on so I'm going to take blue off then I'll put my bamboo one one and leave that one one forever then I'll have to decided on who to stack with it hard decision to make

Black diamond is call black chic it's very rare to find one other person I know has one hers is nicer yes it goes with everything black jadeite is the best [emoji7][emoji7]
