Jade?

I had this for sale last weekend at the antique show and another dealer told me it was likely jade--maybe jadeite. He said, if so, it was probably worth $100. He said it was likely a good luck talisman / object, without an explicit purpose. So I put it in my pocket to research.

Does all (or any) of that sound right? Does it look like jadeite to you?

Unfortunately I can't remember where I got it.

Thank you for any comments!

 

maybe jadeite ..but I'd be hard pressed to give you a C note for it...

Thanks! That second listing: a 2" (5cm) bracelet.... maybe for a newborn?

 

dunno wtf they're thinking.....

2 small for a bangle too big 4 a ring...

kept maybe for this bad boy......

 

Do a specific gravity test that might tell you, nephrite SG is usually between 2.90 and 3.04 Jadeite SG runs between 3.25 and 3.36

 

Also, It could be a child’s bangle, it may or may not be the same quality as this example but you can see the size comparison.

 

The second example and maybe the first too I’d be very suspicious of the color and clarity of the bangle for $99 has to be either treated or some other stone altogether.

 

That guy is a giant!

Thanks for the comments @Desertau! Interesting.... I'll keep looking.
