Congratulations on your gorgeous new necklace looks so beautiful color is so intense in greenThank you, teagansmum! I believe I've already caught the jade fever as I find myself reading articles about jade and looking at pieces online in my spare time.
Here are pics of my first jade purchase that I mentioned in a previous post. I made an offer on eBay for a Type A jadeite necklace with an accompanying GIA certificate that the more than helpful seller was willing to accept. He was even so kind to gift me a white jadeite Happy Buddha pendant. I treasure these items and hope to have a nice collection to pass on to my daughters someday.

I think you can use it just by itself or with facial serum or oil. You can keep it in the fridge or rinse it in cold water. That seems to work for me. Yes I think it would be good for a headache or to roll over a stiff neck.
. Yes it would be good for that too. I got it in a "stone" store c

I love the brightness of the green beads

Morning jadies! Hope all is well and that we're all managing our jade addictions.
I think Uli hit it on the nose with this! lol Uli, you have so many pretty jades and other beautiful jewelry. I wish we could all share our collections, how awesome would that be?

Okie dokie... I've been holding out a little because I've been trying to do a Silver Mom and make a suite of a color. I finally got some earrings that fit the color scheme, so I'm posting now.
You've seen my D shape carved bangle, but I acquired another black carved one. This one totally looks like it was carved to imitate a lauhala bangle. Lau = leaf; hala = hala tree (leaf of hala tree) Hala tree have fruit that looks like a pineapple, so sometimes locals tell unwary tourist about the pineapples that grow on tree.
The dried leaf is soaked in water and cut into strips for weaving: mats, bracelets, hats, etc... We actually learned to make mats and bracelets in elementary school as part of our kupuna program (local elders come in to teach about Hawaiian culture).

So.. 2 black bangles... you've seen the black nephrite beads I acquired... you've seen the black ring, which is probably onyx... but here are the earrings that complete the set! They are Ming's. Actually hallmarked! A little pricey, and old-fashioned, but the clips work and are so gorgeous on! They are a little on the big side, so noticeable without being too flashy.
JKP! So glad you got that bangle! I had my eye on it too! As I recall the seller was selling 2 pcs together. I did not want both and they would not split. It's such a cool bangle - never seen one with a woven type carving before. It looks very modern to me, but the traditional association it has for you makes it all the more special. Congratulations! So happy it's yours 😁Okie dokie... I've been holding out a little because I've been trying to do a Silver Mom and make a suite of a color.
