Thank you Cyanide Rose, Tea, Red and Zipcount!
No, the earrings are not heavy at all.

Red, I love your dark bangles!!!
Beautiful earrings, Uli! I remember when you bought these, but didn't know what a GREAT bargain they were!


Thanks, 2boys! Believe it or not I actually went off my jade at one point and thought about selling most of my collection. I'm glad I didn't because now I'm back into jade...!

The earrings were an unusual purchase for me as I don't usually wear such large earrings, but they were just too beautiful. As they are quite thin the jade is quite light and translucent compared to the bangle, even though they are of the same stone.

I like your jojo bangle a lot, this shape is modern and traditional at the same time and very comfortable!!
I'm also glad you didn't sell your jade and love your mod shots!

Oh wow are these from Allan too? I love them both! Now is it just the lighting or is Jade4Me's bangle a wee bit darker than yours? I love the bright green and the little black dots. Always reminds me of kiwi - hence the adorable names :p
They are not from Allan. It's hard to say how their colors compare in person. From the seller's photos, Tea's may be a touch lighter in color.
 
Thank you ladies. I believe they are much the same. Here is mine in different lighting. Today driving to work it was a vivid bright green, at work it's darker with a light, and at home with no light on it's quite dark. The last photo is Kiwi on the left and Malaysia on the right. I was telling Jade4me if I didn't know better I would think Malaysia is Hetian, but she's fine grained jadeite.

The dots are not even visible in the middle pic - what a chameleon! Yeah I still can't tell the difference at times between jadeite and nephrite.
 
Thinking of these: Hello Kitty lavender pendant and blue lavender peony ring

OMG I can't look at that hello kitty Jade piece [emoji15]

I am a bit embarrassed to admit that about 10 years ago, I was a HUGE Hello Kitty addict. From Sanrio to Kimora to Simmons jewelry. Don't share this with anyone but I even had YouTube videos with all my pieces. I gotta say it was really, really, really bad LOL. I must admit I had over a 100 pieces. I still have a few gold and diamond pieces but only a hand full. Now I want this cute little kitty pieces [emoji48] I have to resist temptation [emoji12]

I'm still a hello kitty fan Cyanide Rose, but not as bad as you were I think! Hello kitty is great!

Ha it's funny, I wasn't a big HK fan before. But when my daughter was born, I picked up a few items for her, including this kimono HK, a ninja one, and a tokidoki one ha. So this pendant seems very sweet. Maybe I can wear it now and give it to her when she's older.

Hello kitty is awesome RedPeony[emoji4] Don't tell my DH but I bought a hello kitty necklace tonight. I really want the huge face diamond ring from Kimora, it's rare now. It's sad that now it's over $3000 when I could have purchased it for a mere $700 back then. I still want it [emoji6]

NYCPrincess, that is just flat out adorable! I just totally love it. Yes wear it and bless it for her. I bet she will love getting something that you wore. I did when I got both of my G-Mom's jewelry collection. It's such a great reminder of an amazing bond between mothers and daughters [emoji5]️
 
Very nice! Is that what you bought tonight? Do show your other pieces!

The seller has another HK jade piece like this in black jadeite as well as this HK face.View attachment 3339714


Thank you [emoji4]

I purchased a necklace tonight. This is a Kimora Lee Simmons diamond and ruby band that I already have.

I love the one you just posted. OMG! Is so pretty [emoji5]️
