@Burmesedaze thank you, just sent an email. The lavender ones are the ones I'm most drawn to, but I'll bet they cost more than the black.

Yah lor. No one negotiated. I asked my usual guy. He says need to see the real thing.

But he put it at 200,000-400,000 rmb.

New ringadingaling!

In a diamond ribbon halo setting with tiny blue sapphires.

Jadeite cab is icy with a blue glow, very steely feel. You can compare it with the icy white cab worn next to it.

Both are gorgeous!

What I call my purple bramble ring, in 18k matte white gold. Lavender jadeite cabs do not have sealed back.

Loving the flat profile!

Sweet and unique. Did you have too many small cabs to set into earrings, or are these the ones that don't match for size?

Oh they sell them in sets too, for half eternity rings and such. Since I already had green and white jadeite cabs in eternity rings, figured I could do with a half one in lavender too. Then I came across this design and that it might work better. Was originally black gold which would contrast with the lavender more, but black gold wouldn't wear nice as a ring as it's plated.

Then red, yellow, orange, rainbow etc etc etc later on :razz:.

The set of 5 cabs in the photo, before setting.

I certainly think it's more interesting than an eternity ring!

What I do when at home during Covid.

Ordered a few jewelry storage boxes online. Did not check size. Turned out larger than expected which is good :razz:

Sorted rings and some chains and pearl necklaces. Earrings next. Pendant box broke in shipping, filing a claim.
Need more boxes for necklaces.

I just :love: your collection!

Also, @Burmesedaze, the sandalwood bracelet beads turned out too small, so I have to wear multiple in order to get enough separation between bangles.

The lavender and black looks so cool on you! Maybe 15 or 16mm beads may work as the width of the bangles are usually 12 ish to 14... so slightly larger may work better.

With my new intense icy green lucky three-legged toad in 18 white gold and a rather unique diamond halo.

Mythical creature believed to gather and hoard wealth ;-) also insanely pricey for a small piece like this. But worth it IMHO. They tend to be more masculine and opaque usually.
