The JADE thread!

Jadepeony on Etsy sells black faceted nephrite jade bangles. You can email the owner to custom make one in your size. It is $800, but I have seen it go on sale for $650. Happy shopping.

Thank you Zipcount - will check it out

Earrings arrived today, lavender set complete! 😊

I love it Crosso - so pretty and the apple gives it a slightly whimsical feel. Very nice shade of lavender in each piece - a touch of pink. It is complete unless of course you want to add a ring - just sayin 😉

Someone asked me for sunlight photos of my Galaxy stone Canadian nephrite bangle. My notifications don't work on my iPhone app, otherwise I'd quote. It's a bit cloudy today but here we go.

It's a very rich deep forest green. Is it the Yukon snow from Allan? I am more partial to bright and or pale minty greens but this is very regal looking. Thanks for posting

Yes it is one of Allan's creations. He calls it Galaxy stone, it doesn't have the snow bits but does have milky streaks. It is darker than Yukon snow. I personally don't like the snow. At first I didn't like that it was so dark, but I warmed up to it very recently for exactly how you described it...rich color and regal looking. Here are a couple more indoor shots.

I got it from very nice old man who was miner and the big boss he worked for let him have a boulder he had it for over 40 years got last year God rest in peace when the old man past away his daughter sold it to me knowing I would take good care of his collection so I feel honored having it [emoji172][emoji170][emoji171] I know finding black chic jadeite is very rare to have one I'm very lucky person 🤗

What a lovely story! Amazing.

Thank you!
This ring would be perfect, but out of my price range, sad to say 😕

Love sets! Your apple looks good enough to eat!

Thanks, JKP! I am in love with lavender lately! The hinged is a bit dressy for me with the gold for an everyday bangle, as is my carved one, so have this one coming from my good friend Suzanne 😶. Hope it will be as pretty in person, so to speak and as nice as 2boys_jademommy's she got from SC - and that it fits! It's 56mm, which is smaller than any of my others by 1mm, but think I can manage it with lotion or hair conditioner.

Thanks, nevix! It has been a few years in the hunt trying to find the evenness of color and color match that I could afford, but am so thrilled with each piece now, individually and together. It can be done! Just takes time and patience 😉

WOW! The richness of color is amazing!

Man this ring is so feminine and elegant. A simple but beautiful design. It is expensive but maybe the seller will have a Christmas sale and you can make an even lower offer and before you know it - it's part of your lavender set

Aw thank you Crosso I hope it will be beautiful too it looks nice in the pics and Susanne doesn't have very good pics so it should be better than this 😊
