OMG....so sorry to hear this. Scary that they had a cert too. I guess we can only trust the most reputable certification labs now a days. Glad you found out before it was too late. Will you be able to get your money back?

Luckily I didn't make the payment yet. I guess sometimes we just need to go with our gut feeling about these things. Glad I don't need to deal with the whole return process but just a disappointed as I really liked that combination.
 
Happy Lunar New Year to my dear jadies! I'd slowed down in my jade collection. Didn't get anything in a long time....except for this glass jade earrings for the new year! Pls keep your lovelies coming..I'm reading silently.

Thanks for letting me share :)

Beutiful way to start the Lunar Year.
Happy New Year Ixorajade!
 
The carvings are very detailed and extra 3 dimensional - not sure if I'm making sense lol
Thanks for sharing.

I get it, I agree. Normally the carvings on bangles seem more superficial,, less deeply carved. I thought those were a great balance of color and carving. I bet they're super expensive, even for carved, because of the detail and color. I was looking at her website and her stuff is gorgeous, but mostly out of my pocketbook range. hahah

Here's today's bangle, facets.

Yes that is what I meant to say - the carvings are more deeply cut and very intricate and probably expensive - sigh.
Haven't see your faceted bangle in a long time. It's so pretty!

The carvings are very beautiful. I actually prefer 3D carving. I have both kinds of carvings 3D and the other kind that is carved inside the jade. They are both at the GIA being certified right now but when I get them back I will post them. I think the 3D type is more unusual though. JKP your faceted bangle is to die for. LOVE IT!
