[QUOTE="komokwa, post: 129970, member: 301"]JMHO...I think you're stepping on the wrong persons toes...at the wrong time ! Did you read my posts..>>>>?????? #6.....reads " I'd say Canadian Jade " #8.....reads " It's just my opinion" The OP asked for our thoughts , & since I though I recognized this stone I thought I'd help her by giving her the benefit of my long experience . Including photo's of the actual stone I was commenting on . This is not a ruby , or diamond or CZ, or sapphire or emerald . I would not venture an opinion on those stones . Jade is different. I know Jade.....& it has certain characteristics that can be seen in a photo. The OP says.." I just want to be sure" , & I offered up an opinion which would cause her to question whether the Etsy description was indeed accurate . And what do I get for my troubles.....Tyeldom3 thanks me for my effort , which I take to heart.....& Holly fires off a negative post saying I can't tell what those stones are....cuz it's just a photo.....calling into question my opinion & rendering it a moot bit of tripe !! Now you add .... "Yes, you may be correct here, but if it were me, I would want something more definite than someone's opinion based on a photo." Everyone comes here with asking for help to determine what they may have , based on the photo's they show us......knowing all the while that for something " More Definite " , a hands on evaluation by a professional is always recommended ! That goes without saying !!!!!!! What's worth saying is that I find your post to be no more than platitudes , and regurgitated common sense phrases that not only don't address the OP's question.....but just seek to belittle the help I've tried offer Tye. Oh, & should it creep into your mind that this post too , may in your opinion , be really harsh......just know that in my honest opinion...you deserve it ! No Photo Required !![/QUOTE]
