I also wanted to say a huge thank you to @Crimson and @mellowyellowgirl - thank you for all your help, feedback, and suggestions! <3 <3 (and for putting up with all my questions haha!)
I've liked jade for quite a while, but it just seemed so daunting as I knew nothing about how to judge jadeite and never felt comfortable enough to buy any jadeite pieces. This thread has been absolutely invaluable and so educational! I am so glad to have found this little jade-loving community on here
I think green jadeite might be my new favourite gemstone now! New addition to my wishlist: A deep forest/emerald green jadeite (pear or marquise or an organic-looking elongated shape) with awesome imperial-like glow!!
Wow! So happy to see your new profile pic @Bookwyrm.
It looks lovely on you. I like the proportions. Looks like a good size too.
I do love the deep forest green. It has an air of mystery. In the trade it is called “艳绿’”or intense green.
The inclusions are there, but I don’t think they are distracting. it is likely most people won’t notice them.
Glad that you now have a new fav stone! I could never get tired of jadeite because there are so many hues and forms.
Just for fun - here is a huge honey jadeite pendant.
One of my friends, who is based in London, saw it online and liked it, so I went to help her have a look for her. It is as big as a biscuit! It also reminds me of marmalade.
