NYCP I think you made the right choice. Your keeper bangle is finer grained and more luminous. They both have great colour. I happen to like the broken ice on the other one as well but that's just me. I know finer grain is better. I would have chosen the one from jojo too
I am surprised that so many people now a days like the princess bangle. My jeweler told me that princess bangles were the fashion in the olden days and are not often made now. She didn't say why though and I just assumed it was because it was old fashioned. I really prefer the princess so I figured that I am just an old fashioned girl. LOL Why do you folks like the princess? Do you prefer it over the other shapes? Curious to find out why.

Great question! I've talked to jewellers who were surprised I like princess bangles because they say it is old fashioned. To me there is a fine line between old fashioned and a classic. A beautiful princess bangle is a classic. It is elegant and feminine and the epitome of a classic Jade bangle. If I could only have one bangle it would be a princess. I do love the d shapes as well but there is just something special with princesses. How about you...why do you love princesses?
I prefer D shape and even more so oval myself. My Jojo blue is a fat ice princess and I do like the chubbiness of it but don't prefer the traditional thinner princesses myself. I guess I do associate it with my mother's generation and find oval and D shape more comfortable.

I think so too.
Too bad I can't return the first for cash though.
I totally love the princess because it is so comfortable to wear. It falls well on my wrist without hurting me. My D shapes sometimes thump down on my wrist bone and that really hurts. I love the feel of it on and love to twirl it around. If I had to choose only one it also would be a princess. You are really right it is classic and looks so dainty.
Awww wish you could.I think so too.
I do agree d shapes are more comfy. I don't like ovals as much because I like how the round bangles spin more easily.
It will be a lovely gift to your daughter someday or daughter in lawI think so too.
Well I guess this just means we have to get one of every color and shape. LOL

I want to see what else the seller has. It's pretty expensive so I don't want to hold onto something that I likely won't really wear.
