Specific Gravity of Grade B Jadeite

[Burmesedaze]

Oh yes I don't like the fb settings too. But truth is, many a jade and CS look better in a setting and are easier to sell. Flaws can be hidden too.

 

[Burmesedaze]

It depends whether there is an existing mould that can fit. If not, CAD and new mould around 150 upwards

Thanks @Burmesedaze, I’m glad to have posted here, the cab looks a lot greener and translucent on the phone than on the iPad. Pretty setting though.

 

[Lovinggems]

Wow I’m not sure I can stop shopping for jewellery if I live around your area so much choice!

 

[Lovinggems]

On another note I really like this one.

Can you get a video @Lovinggems?

Jasmine has definately upped her prices. Almost everything on the cheap site is $450 in today's listings.

I saw this too and took out my measuring tape to gauge how small it was

Yep. Not good.

@mellowyellowgirl I’m not sure I already know it is not as green and translucent as FB lady’s so if I do it it’s for the setting, else I’ll have to work harder to find something nicer .

Not too small gem stones are smaller unless it includes the top bead then definitely a bit small.

The filigree earrings.....not bad.

Nice. Are they heavy? I'd love them with a little green...

 

[ChaiK]

My first pair of the filgree just arrived. I love them.

The cabochon on this pair that arrived is a bright glowing green. I love this pair.

I have a second pair arriving.

I should have bought more....

 

[Seaglow]

No, they’re not really heavy. If you like lighter ones, you can choose thinner stones.

 

[Burmesedaze]

Ear shots please, ladies!

I prefer a donut as a statement piece for a pendant or else they get a bit lost. Or else worn higher near collarbone

The round discs with coloured stones had green tinges on the jade. I think they were sent wrongly to Chaik so there may be 1 pair left?

 

[suzanne2]

Thanks, I'll go look...

 

[Burmesedaze]

Thanks, I'll go look...

Or msg FB Jasmine directly.

Looks like rose quartz beads.

Yes...

The classical green jadeite does not look like anythjng else, but the others too often are too close to some absurdly lesserly priced stuff ( eg. Ice?)

I love icy jade. It looks ethereal

But I agree. It does look no different from many cheaper substitutes

I did. I think I have to wait for her to wake up...I see earrings in my future. I'm on a buying spree. Stop me!!

You go girl! I can't wait to see what craxy mischief you get up to! I bought a lavender ring on a whim. That's pretty bad!

More photos of the lavender jadeite bead necklace I mentioned earlier this month:

A nice light lavender shade from a distance, but not so much up close.

 

[Lovinggems]

Are you keeping these @prs ?

 

[mellowyellowgirl]

What is the colour you see in real life @prs?

I have decided if I make it to April with no lapses I will reward myself with a dangly hairpin (for the right price) so I can curtsey to Pink Bandit and call him "Your majesty."

He responded by giving me a "WTF" look of acceptance

You must post a photo and get the full costume and hair done!

On another note very lovely, then I look at the size and there’s not enough beads for a bracelet.

I glanced by those quickly and thought it was a bracelet. Hehe maybe you're supposed to string those with the 11k green ones and $1k pink ones. $13k mixed bead bracelet.

Omg you’re hilarious

 

[Burmesedaze]

Lavender is really vey tricky to buy.

 

[ChaiK]

Yes, I agree with Burmesedaze. Can arrive grey. Or can arrive much much better than expected.
