I just found this thread but thought I'd contribute! This is my lavender jade bangle, I've had it since 2009, I got it in Hong Kong and have worn it every day since.
Welcome designerloves! What a lovely bangle - thanks for sharing:) We all love lavender on this forum :panic:Have you noticed if it has changed colour or become more translucent since you've been wearing for so may years?
 
Pio, the bangle looks lovely on you with a rich kiwi green hue to it! At least you can relax a bit now that you have bangle(s) in hand!

Crosso, welcome back and hope you had a good trip! The beads are the perfect accessory to help settle back into your daily routines again, beautiful!

Pi, I think once UJ returns she will be listing online.

Fano, I always enjoy seeing your candy color stacks! The wide one is my favorite and how cute is that cat!!! ...gorgeous green mall jade - love the doughnut hinged details.

NYC, nice lavender stack and bumper! Do you wear your blue chubby princess much?
 
I wanted to share with you all, my jade family, that I have worked with JoJo for many many months (9+ months) on finding a bangle. Finally, my dream bangle got carved out in a blue/purple color with nice texture! I also would like to thank Dynasty for all her support :flowers:
In my excitement let me introduce Fantine.
Thanks for taking a look and hope everyone has a lovely day!

NYC and DL, all I can say is, YUM. Those are delicious.

Question for the experts. I'm looking at some bangles listed by a US seller. They're gorgeous, and to my inexperienced eyes look like real jade, and there are certificates in the listings. But how does one check the certificates? I've heard mention of looking up the numbers online, but I don't see any URLs on the certificates.
 
Beautiful bangle and thanks for sharing. Like 2boys asked, have you noticed any changes and it looks like a snugger fit?

I can't seem to quote 2 people on mobile unfortunately. I have noticed a difference in the color, it seem to change every few months! I don't think the translucency has changed, but the color is a deeper color than when I first began wearing it. I might be imagining the change in colors, but looking at old photos I know it's become a deeper purple color.
It's not incredibly tight but I have very small wrists, so it probably can't come off my hand without some serious oil/soap and determination. I wear it most of the time a little higher up (where the red mark is on my arm).

Sorry if that was more info than you wanted!

OMG DG it's breath taking :loveeyes: Is it a chubby princess or does it have a flattened inner diameter? It looks amazing on you. I love the base colour and the darker green bits. So beautiful. I'm happy for you!!

Thank you ladies :hugs:I actually took off all my other bangles and just wearing her for now.
Bat, I got her from JoJo (same seller as Seasons)
2boys, a totally different shape compared to my other bangles. She is chubby at 11.5x10.5 with a flat inner :smile:
