For the sake of tradition I'm going to post my beads on this thread.
I love them so much!!! @ChaiK your advice was spot on regarding size. I don't think I would have been happy with the 6.6mm and this colour is good enough for me.
Mellow these are so green already. Can you post a picture of the 6.6 beads. I would love to see how much more green it is and brighter too. Since I got my beads I have fallen in love with all things beads.....LOL. Just love looking at them. 9.9 is a very good size. I hardly see beads that are so evenly green as well as so green. I know you must really love them. Somehow I feel like the beads are harder to scratch, crack, break etc. so I feel more at ease when wearing them. Did you ask them to put a knot between each bead? I wanted to do that in case the string broke so I wouldn't go crazy chasing beads. By the way, just watched this chinese show called Go Ahead. It was excellent. Did you see it?
I learned everything I know about jadeite from this thread and the experts who were so kind to share their knowledge. I thought I would post a photo of my wife's new ring by David Klass. There is a thread over in SMTB.
Check out my new necklace!!!!! It was an absolute bargain!!!!
My salesperson was skeptical about the factory pics but she sent it off for real photos anyway and we were super surprised at how pretty the beads were. A few of the green beads do have lines (hence the really good price) but I don't care because I wanted colour and this is the perfect spring coloured necklace. Plus I paid a fortune for my perfect green beads already so I can live with these cheapies!
First thing my husband said when he saw it was "oh you bought a spring necklace to go with your bangle" which is music to my ears because he's very critical with Jade!

Delurking to say hello and thank you to everyone who has contributed their jade knowledge. I just made it through 101 pages of jade info over the last 2 days. I wish I had come across this before I bought my first bangle!
Bought this from Ultimate Jadeite and it's a little more warm in color than it looks in the photo. I'm really happy with it but already looking for more jade pieces after seeing all the beauties people have picked up.

Realized last night that I DO have another piece of jade and wanted to share with the group. I haven't had the chance to wear it out yet but I love it so much.
It's a ring from a Choo Yilin capsule collection that I was able to order when they did a special trunk sale
Jade cabochon set in rose gold with seed pearls, and diamonds
