AGBF Ideal Rock Total Posts: 8,048 Last Post: 11/24/2009 Member Since: 1/26/2003	The bangles are lovely, Sharon. Your posting the pictures and descriptions really helped to give an accurate portrayal of what you are wearing! We really both love yellow gold and high karat gold, so it was interesting to read about your bracelets and see how different our bracelets actually are. For some reason, I like to wear an odd number of bangles and you like to wear an even number. (You are wearing two now, and contemplating wearing four.) You also like yours to be lightweight (and therefore hollow). I always want mine to be solid and I resent it when a manufacturer (like Gurhan) fills the bracelet with something other than gold just to make it weighty! Finally, none of my bracelets have clasps (so they do not open and close) and have to be pushed over the hand and I noticed that all of yours do, despite the tiny size of your hands. Be sure to add these to the thread on gold jewelry! (It is still open isn't it?) I hope you wear the new bangles in good health and happiness! Deb A Girl's Best Friend

Ellen Ideal Rock Total Posts: 22,894 Last Post: 11/6/2009 Member Since: 1/13/2006	Date: 8/26/2007 11:34:58 PM Author: canuk-gal each bangle is app. 11gms. 24K What a nice pear, I mean pair, of bangles. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "It is also important for the State to inculcate in its subjects an aversion to any 'conspiracy theory of history' for a search for 'conspiracies' means a search for motives and an attribution of responsibility for historical misdeeds." -Murray N. Rothbard, in The Anatomy of the State John Swinton [1829-1901] Chief Editorial Writer of the New York Times (Considered "the Dean of his Profession" by his peers), when asked to toast an 'Independent Press' in a gathering at the National Press Club, circa 1880 "There is no such thing in America as an independent press unless it is in the country towns. You know it, and I know it. There is not one of you who dare express an honest opinion. If you express it you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid... for keeping my honest opinions out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries for doing similar things.... The business of the New York journalist is to distort the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of Mammon, and sell his country and race for his daily bread, or for what is about the same thing, his salary. You know this, and I know it and what foolery to be toasting an 'independent press.' We are tools, and the vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are jumping-jacks. They pull the strings and we dance. Our time, our talents, our lives, our possibilities, all are the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes."

Deb HI Deb: I appreciate your input--and I thought about all those variables you discussed. IN past I have had 24K bangles, that were "whole" (no clasp) and they did evenutally bend with the wear and tear of pushing them on and off. I was not smart enough to use the old plastic bag on the hand trick--that certainly could have helped matters, and of course having a heavier weight does also. Notwithstanding the clasp is convenient, is is also pain, as the little security figure 8 rubs again the other bangle, and opens. But it is easily tightening--but not too much as you know the drill with 24k.. If memory serves, I think you and I have discussed the filling of hollow gold jewellery with materials to increase their weight (e.g. resin) and I dislike this practice; or it certainly was a pain when I was working at the bench repairing jewellery in my Dad's shop 30 years ago. Naturally I didn't pay anywhere near what the Gurhan bangles cost---and nether do I have a brand. Honestly, I wish I had some of his merchandise--it is unique and beautiful to the eye. But these will have to suffice for now , until I find somewhere local to buy Gurhan. Yet, I am pretty happy with my bracelets, and look forward to betting two more. I wonder how my diamond bangle would look together with them???? Thanks for stopping by!!!!!!!!!!!! cheers--Sharon "People who possess great qualities, do not need to show off".
