Help please! If i’m dropping $1k cad (~$700 usd), which of the two should I get?
The first two photos is a slim oval white-lavender to light green opaque glutinuous bangle from baikalla that I’ve been eyeing for a while. I have thin wrists so I’ve always wanted to try out an oval bangle, and the width on this is only 8mm which is something I don’t have yet in my collection.
The 3rd to last photos are from a local fb marketplace listing I just stumbled upon a couple days ago. It’s got jelly-like translucency (icy glutinuous?) and high perfection piece. It’s got the cert and there’s also a video i’ll attach to the thread to see the inner fibers of the jade. It’s got a natural color line as its only “flaw” (i can barely see it unless under light). Basically, I fell in love at first sight and now i’m stumped :(
I only own lower quality jade so far so I’ve been wanting to get some “better” pieces for myself and these two are within my budget.
I feel like there’s an obvious answer to this question (the fb marketplace one) but the Baikalla oval bangle keeps tugging on me 😅
Which one would YOU choose in this situation??
