Specific Gravity of Grade B Jadeite

[Seaglow]

Just got this.
It’s bigger than my first pendant.
Described as beautiful color and top quality water. They will set in rose gold. Thick at 3.9mm.

Oh that's so pretty @Seaglow

You guys have got mad sweater pendants!

Please do post a pic of that luscious new perfectly emulsified green pedant when you wear it!

 

[ChaiK]

I think prices are very much cheaper on LS. But of course this is not icy or imperial green. Still a pretty casual pendant for everyday wear. And the Qilin or Kirin brings protection and good luck.

@suzanne2, if you are after a dragon or a Qilin like this, they cost more on WeChat.

This came in at 3520 rmb.

Measuring 50.8 mm by 5.3 mm thickness.

Here it goes!



Also doing a simple design for the orange landscape - a green cab with halo (or double halo if melees small). I leave the single or double halo to the factory.

Gorgeous @Seaglow

Soooo elegant and classy! You're tempting me! I see that and I think "Oooh If I had a pendant I could do this and this with this outfit."

Nononono no pendants!!!!!!!

 

[mellowyellowgirl]

Can someone buy this fish and the wee crab and make mismatched earrings?

Here's to hoping there will be more random creatures when I'm off my ban.

Part 1 of stuff received. Too late and too tired.

That's super nice!
I can't go on LS, too timid to make a fool of myself in public. In private it's ok. lol
I've been too busy to scroll on wechat for the last two days, I'm going through withdrawal! This is one I would have passed by, not into lavender yet. Of course, wasn't into clear glassy either and now I want one.
Haven't seen an orange one yet either.
What will I do when Chinese new year comes around?
And of course, now I want a landscape pendant. I'm a greedy, greedy girl.

Scrolling down, in awe of your taste. Wow, very very nice, all of them. My favorite is the landscape with the slash of green down the middle. Also, the orange leaves. Need ear shots of those

Wearing a donut today.

My diamond hoops are in Yangon. When I get back this weekend

I need to check if the dangles are able to slip onto the hoop.

 

[Burmesedaze]

Rest of them.

The blue flowers & gourd are intriguing; I imagine them next to the bright orange leaves...

Good hoard!

After this and the next batches I have, Im going to stop a while. It's very irritating having to deal with wechat, unconsolidated payments and framing/setting tweaks while at work when they are at work. I find constant messaging on various platforms very intrusive.

Also my fault for doing too many in a short frame of time. Esp when work seems to get busier and busier.

One of the donuts circled has a long scratch. They say they will tell the factory to be more careful. That it can be buffed out with polishing. Which obviously not done by them. So if I'm in Africa and these are sent scratched, do you think I can get them polished out?

I will do it in Myanmar when i fly back but doesn't mean I'm there forever.

I have other items to set with David Klass and others. So stopping for now.

 

[Seaglow]

@suzanne2 , this dragon from No. 2 is 990rmb, less than USD150.

 

[ChaiK]

Item not here yet but terrible shoddy work.

See hole. And the cab is black. Not green. Not happy.

 

[lovedogs]

If anyone sees a Jade piece with a phoenix will you tag me? I love their symbolism, and have a tattoo of one. I'd love to own a piece of jewelry that has one too the FB Jade person had one, but it wasn't clear what the animal was so I passed on it.

@Burmesedaze, can I ask you how much you paid for your green scenic pendant? I think I am too eager and they overprice it when it comes to me. There was a small small pair earlier at 23 mm by 26 mm and they wanted 1000 rmb for the pair......

Your pendant meant to be in string. Not in metal setting.

I asked her to advise. She said ok. Also, I told her not dark green cab. She said she would choose. I told her not spicy cab.

I am no longer that person who stood and paid the jeweller for screwing up her pearl earrings.

So she is to fix it.

Mine are also smallish for a few. Nothing green is under 1000. Often 2000 to just under 4000. Singles. No pair.

The hole is 打孔. Usually to just put a bail.

She should have advised not suitable to set. And also for me, I was shown the cab before setting and was advised what is good or not.

Yes bail more appropriate.

 

[ChaiK]

Exactly. She was asked is it ok to set like that? She said yes.

And she was told, not spicy green cab.

She will fix. I will make sure. Anyway, not going to get caught up by this.

All other items, very happy with quality and price. I think they have setting issues.

Maybe next time, I don't set with them or use simple setting.

I would still buy their wechat set items. Eyeing a cab ring. But for now not buying yet. About to commit to huge something else.....
