Thank you.

Online from my trusted and regular China sources (only a couple) and physically from my Yangon jeweller friends. The latter currently closed owing to government retail lockdown.

Any chance that your sources sell to the public? Etsy, Ruby Lane, etc...?? I love Jade but am always skittish to buy from unknown sources. I wouldn't know if the jade was authentic or not!

No they don't as they sell real time as a middleman for sellers that rotate every 2 hours. What are you looking for? I could help keep a lookout :)

I thought I had lost my smaller star sapphire and my bluest faceted unheated sapphire ring while out with the girls one drunken night.

Until I reached out for a very very old bag that I nearly threw out...and lo and behold, there they were tucked into a small inner pocket! That wasn't even the bag I brought out with me that night lol.

Here they are, next to the big sister.

Thank you For the lovely compliment! It really is one of my favorite pieces as it’s comfortable, fun to wear, and feels romantic with the cascading.

Accidentally left my engagement ring at my parents' house, so I'm wearing my 2 ct blue sapphire as substitute e-ring. Also some more CS rings because why not?

Happy Easter weekend everyone. I’m wearing Moonlight Jelly today because it reminds me so much of spirit, hope and a great organizing archetype in life and in the universe. I hope everyone is staying as strong as they can!

You looks beautiful! And I love turquoise with the diamond blingy hoops! You go girl!

Awe, thank you! Those earrings are sterling with CZ’s...they are great fun and go with everything, so I wear them lots. They have made me wish for some diamond studs someday.

Just this rain cloud, vintage Native American necklace today. It gives me positive energy.... F25B021D-C079-4436-BC7F-75076D90A4C6.jpeg D10B046C-D3DF-4FB1-8BEB-62666CBD0107.jpeg

@Bluegemz I have to mention, in this first picture, you look like a dead ringer for a young Angelina Jolie with her chin and lips. Each time I go past it, I double back.

Switched over to my fresh lavender jadeite bangle while working on the laptop on a Sunday. Decided to snap a shot together with 2 bangle centres from the same material, which I've not quite decided what I want to do with them.

Wearing my pink sapphire honeymoon ring 20200412_115729.jpg
And my pink sapphire earrings, bought at gem show many years ago, I might have then reset into a more blingy drop style earring at some point. 20200412_115837.jpg
It's a pink Easter day! Hope everyone is doing well.

Today I'm wearing my Guatemalan jadeite snowflake bangle & chirimen silk cord. It was a sweet gift, but my husband clearly thinks my hands are much bigger than they are. The in-shade picture is truer to color, but the direct light one shows the snowflakes and reveals I personally am a colorless monster.

Also, a pretty side of my mauve-pink spinel, which shows blue-pink in one direction and orange-pink in the other. It rarely looks purple-orange-pink-brown in some light, which is a flattering neutral lipstick color but not my favorite spinel color.

It's impossible for me to capture the color of this chrysoprase because it goes too saturated and blue on camera. Wearing this and my pink spinel ring.

Your pink spinel ring is so damn elegant! Beautiful setting for it!
It reminds me of what I'd give a woman who was a ballerina if I were her suitor!

Ignore my weird scenarios...even though everyone will hear more...the quarantine is definetely getting to me. Lol

Lol it's good you have a vivid imagination to get you through the quarantine. The setting is from Ivy & Rose. I just happened to have a spinel that fits that setting.

Wearing lavender jadeite also today...,Spring time and warmer weather always leads me towards wearing more lavenders and blues.

I put my natural red spinel from Litnon into a wild inexpensive setting with a CZs and synthetics halo so I could look at it more. It looks best on a cloudy, pre-storm day.

Please delete my post if synthetics aren't allowed, I don't know if the forums are as strict as they used to be.
