I am a stay home mom so I miss having the quiet time to get things done. It isnt so bad but they do keep me busy. I try to be mindful that they will grow up someday and be on their own. They dont stay little forever.:smile1:
I will be getting a WA nephrite bangle from Allan. Have no timeline yet from him. Keep telling myself, "Must be patient...think of other things...."


I am getting a WA nephrite bangle. He had to get a boulder much larger than needed in order to have no fractures large enough to make my bangle. I think this raised the price some in return. How did you get a time line from him? He hasn't shared any finished dates with me yet. Cant wait until we can do our reveals! Your Siberian will be TDF for sure!


Uli, that dragon is so powerful and love the silver and gold mix. Will be a great blend with your jade. I will be getting a WA nephrite bangle from Allan. I dont think he has yet to start the carving but does have the boulder.


Thank you! It is so funny because Thrakena, like Star Bright, is the most comfortable on my right wrist and is also around 16mm in width. She has been on straight for three days now. I do like the black mixed with the minty green. If I remember right, I think fano shared that it is best to wear black jade on your right arm. Best this way for healing too.

Hi DG I totally understand what you mean by losing your alone time but you are also so right in saying it won't last forever. Mine are 9 and 11 and they are needing me less. I miss it but I do love this stage too.
What is a WA bangle? Are you getting a princess or d shape?
Allan is a perfectionist from what I hear.With my bangle he has to use a different slab because the stone he was going to use had an area that was "weaker". I truly appreciate that he is so meticulous with his work. As for timelines I have been talking to Allan for months. It was just a few days ago that he emailed me to say he should be able to start my bangle in a month's time and that I will probably get it in August.
I am getting a wide bangle this time since all of mine are either slim or medium widths. I wanted a different look.

Your Black Diamond looks perfect with StarBright. Both so dark and unique in their own way:)

I am totally with you 2boys_jade on the ages, mine are 8 and 11 too. Can you believe junior high next year :faint:
From Allan, he is working on a blue WA nephrite in a wider d shape. I do like that he is a perfectionist and really takes pride in his work. A lot of jadies here can contest to that and have been happy with their pieces from him. It took me some time to before he actually carried out with the conversation more to start the beginnings of the project. Cant wait to hear of your bangle progress!

I can tell you like your darker colors in jade and the ones that chose you are stunning. I think its important to wear the bangle on which wrist is more comfortable. I am not an expert on meanings and uses for jade but did come across this article that I found interesting on black jade that you might like as well: http://www.crystalvaults.com/crystal-encyclopedia/black-jade

Beautiful, unique pendant CR! Wow, the color does look like a swan and very soft looking like the feathers of one. Will you use a cord or a chain for it? Cant wait to see mod shots! Girl, you are scoring with the jade pieces lately :woohoo:
