Fano, thank you dearglad you like Galadriel and Seasons. I love your stack with the offset of different widths and colors. Your wide carved bangle is always a delight to see (what is the width?) along with your impregnable black bangle and candy colored buffers!
thanks, designergoods, my wide carved is approx. 27mm wide. she is my absolute favorite, out of all my jade bangles.
fatty is gorgeous, crossoFound a bargain bangle I decided to take a chance on. Seller listed it as nephrite, butI don't think it is. Specific gravity is 3.31 and it has a nice chime. Does nephrite have the same chime as jadeite? I only have a few, but I don't think they sound like this and looking closely, this seems to have more of a jadeite stone structure, but I'm not a nephrite expert. Opinions, anyone?
Regardless, I really like it! It's heavy (96 grams) and FAT (13mm).

i'll love to have a chubby princess someday too
Crosso, I love your new bargain bangle and she for sure looks jadeite. Your bangle Whisper must be from the same seller (Bestitems4you I think was the name of my seller who I bought bangles from when he first started out) because yours looks identical to one I parted with. Hint of lavender with green, but very faint. Mine was too big on me.
JKP- love the family shots and thanks for posting that great article.
Uli, your dragon collection is lovely and you suit amber so well.
Fan, it's nice to see you continuing to wear you favorite thick bangle.
Designergoods, your friend was so sweet to send you those and that dragon pendant is to die for!
Ixora - your leaf pendant is gorgeous and ever so icy! I hope you can get your beads stranded so as they don't clink together. I would be worried to and am quite fussy myself.
thanks, tea. its my 24/7 bangle because i will miss her if i not wearing her.
gorgeous pendants, tea! i have a very similar love birds pendant tooGetting ready for Canada Day Festivities over here and thought I'd post some pendants that I'm organizing in my jewelery box. The top is a certified toad (I love this little guy!) a ceritified filligree, panda bear and lavender Pixiu and ginseng pendant.
Then a lavander butterfly, bat bracelet, love birds and cicada
I love it DG and what it cute name for your new bangleRecently received a black jadeite bangle purchased on the whim! Its 21mm wide with even color all the way around. There are crystals you can see throughout in bright light with black streaks here and there. Here is a picture in direct light to show one of the streaks and texture. Introducing Fur...a happy purchase

Black jadeite is very unique looking with the patterns of darker and lighter black / grey.21 mm - looks to be a good width. I am requesting a 20 mm from Allan so yours gives me a good idea of how it will look. What is the thickness of the bangle do you know?

Happy fourth to the jadies in the States. Here's my attempt of red, white (Hetian), and blue (sugilite).
Uli, thank you, she is from your fave seller gojade. Love the stack, the colors look so soft and elegant....and WOW with your dragon collection. You are the queen of dragons for sure
LL, thank you. Fur totally reminds me of your great black jadeite collection. What are you wearing today?
Fano, thanks for the comps
. I REALLY like the width of your carved. I have yet to own a bangle that wide but it gives me the idea that it works and looks ravishing!
2boys, thanks! I think any where in the 20's for width is good and comfortable. I still think you can stick to your normal size or go 1-2mm larger and still be safe. I did request 7-8mm thick but have yet to finalize the exact measurements. How about you? what dimensions did you request exact?

Thank you Designer! Maybe I am not the mother of dragons (is anyone watching "Game of thrones"?) but the grandmother of dragons since I will be 50 soon.....
