My vintage bangle just arrived and it's lovely but I am still stumped as to what it is. I've ruled out jadeite after doing the SD test, so it's likely nephrite or serpentine. I'm leaning towards nephrite because I've seen some nephrite pieces with similar dendritic patterns. The bangle is also nicely polished. It has more lustre than my jadeite bangle which has a bit of orange peel.

I think it's gorgeous!
 
After searching my house and office at work, look who showed up! Strangely I was at work and five minutes before leaving I stood up and the bracelet fell onto the floor. I had gotten off and on that chair for two days so I was shocked to see him sitting there smiling at me.
I feel so relieved to have him back. Nothing expensive, (I only paid $1.00 for him), but I like having him with me. :)


Welcome back to Tea, Buddha!!
 
And with all the lovely lavender in the last few posts, I went back to PL for the last few days. It's overcast, so she looks a little washed out.

JKP, that is soooo beautiful. I love it. If that is her washed out, she must be perfect in intense light.

So happy for you Tea! I wonder if it was just sitting in your chair these couple of days. I can see the colour perhaps blending in. I'm glad it is back with you. 😊
