This is so cute Crosso! I love bats! By the way, the day you announced you lost your bracelet, I lost my beaded bracelet with my little green buddha on it. I"m going crazy searching for it and feel your pain. :(

Teagansmum I hope you and Crosso find your bracelets. I remember years ago long before I wore bangles I use to wear these tiny bright green Jade earrings and I lost one. Several days later I found it in my purse. No idea how it landed there as I would never take my earrings off so not only did it fall off my ear but it landed in my purse - both the earring and backing. All this to say I hope your lost Jade turns up soon.
 
Thanks to everyone for their lovely comments about the pendants.

I love that the Jade forum is mostly very kind, life is hard enough as it is, there is no need to spend energy in places where people are nasty to one another! I'm sure you all agree!

That's going to be a hard challenge, people's top three. Can we have top three in different categories? Bangles vs earrings vs rings vs pendants? Haha. Maybe we should start a new thread for the top of the jade charts?
 
Thank you 2boys. I feel like I lost part of myself losing that little guy. I"m going to check my coat sleeves when I get home from work. Made a list of places to check. lol
Thank goodness you found your earring!!
Crosso? Any luck yet?
Red...Top of the jade charts? Not a bad idea. ;)

Teagansmum, I'm so sorry you lost your bracelet. I hope you find yours soon too. I hate losing stuff, I'm still looking for a gold fleur de lis tassel pendant I lost a year ago but I think it fell out of my pocket at my little guys therapy appointment. So, I think it's gone forever.

I remember hearing a story on PS where a lady had lost her really nice size diamond stud earrings in NYC. I can't remember the exact length of time but it was at least a week later. She said she was walking her normal route and noticed a glint in the crack of the sidewalk and sure enough it was her earring. She ended up finding them both not far from each other. Can you believe that? In a fast paced place like NYC! Well anywho, the diamonds were in pretty rough shape but the were a pretty good size and last I heard she was checking with her jeweler about getting them recut.

Heck, I thought if she could find those in NYC, one of the most busiest place I can think of, then Jadies we still have a chance to find our pretties right? I hope you and crosso find you bracelets soon [emoji5]️

Hi Lots love! Thank you so much [emoji4] I totally agree with you too. I have learned so much here and met some really nice Jadies too [emoji5]️
 
I don't think either are too big for the office either and agree with 2boys that they are one ring per hand types of rings, and to keep the rest of your jewelry low key (for the office). Either one would be a very nice statement piece. The peony obviously looks like a flower to me, too. I hope you don't mind if I share a story... I remember years ago a young slim attractive Japanese woman that came into our office to translate at our conference calls. During the calls many times her hand would hover near the speakerphone in case we wanted her to mute our side. Her jewelry was minimal except for a gorgeous humongous Tahitian pearl solitaire ring on her finger - middle finger I believe - it may have had a couple/few small diamonds, but the huge pearl was definitely the showcase. Most women would save such a ring for special occasions. However, I thought it was a very classy bold statement piece that showed a unique side to her personality - that she wasn't afraid to be unconventional and wear what she liked. She wore it every single time she came into our office, so I assumed it was her everyday statement ring. I'll bet most of the men were inconspicuously staring at her, but I was conspicuously staring at her ring, LOL! ;)

That's a really nice story, thank you for sharing it. I used to have a coworker that wore ginormous pearl necklaces and studs, she had a few. Jewelry was her and her mom's thing, she said. They always look Flintstone-like to me, in the best kind of way. :p
 
Sorry NYCP I still like the other cabochon more. It just looks very elegant to me. I don't know why I don't like yellow gold with diamonds. For some reason I like diamonds with white gold and very little of the gold showing. and the last ring in this picture just has too much around it and takes away from the jade BUT that is just my taste. Every body has different taste so you just have to pick the one that appeals to you.

Yes everyone does have different taste, so you're right, I should take advice but heed my own compass. The peony doesn't have diamonds I think. It does have a yellow gold band but could be switched to white gold.

However, I think the diamonds and the classic cabochon just call to me more, and I really like the setting. I wonder if it is something I could easily get from Alice or Nikolai in the future and pick a cabochon in person when they come to NY trade shows. I've asked Nikolai but she is super swamped with Mother's Day rush and already sent me so many photos and videos. Hello Kitty is on her way! But I should have asked about signature required because then I would have sent to my office. Now no one will be home to sign for it. :crybaby:
