Type A Jadeite Round Bangle, Green Flowers All Round, 54.7mm

A natural Type A jadeite round bangle (fu bangle, 福镯) in icy-glutinous texture, pale green with green flowers all round. Inner size 54.7 mm.

Icy-glutinous jadeite sits between icy and glutinous: fine-grained and semi-translucent, with a soft glow. Moist and fresh: the base has a light green tint, and deeper green flowers run in one patch after another all the way round, with no plain stretch anywhere. That is what the trade calls 色花, color flowers: plenty of color, scattered evenly, lively without looking busy. The slim bar, about 7.8 × 8 mm, keeps it light and delicate.

Style: round (fu bangle), round in cross-section and easy to wear with anything. Size: 7.8 mm wide and 8 mm thick, 54.7 mm inner, which is a common size.

As a natural mineral, jadeite nearly always carries some growth marks such as cotton or stone lines; they do not affect wear. The flowers in this 54.7 mm bangle sit where nature put them; no other piece has quite the same pattern. The video turns it through a full circle so you can see every side. Screens show color differently, so it helps to check the video as well.
