how do you know it is an old rock?
that's the long and short of it.. like the conservation ads say, when the buying stops, the killing will too..
Originally posted by the_don:ya i know abt the blood diamond thing. i'll probably try to get a old rock (something like recycling paper, the tree has oready died, so make full use of it). ruby, sapphire, aqua marine, etc also can, pretty rocks too

There is now lots of fake jade around.Originally posted by elindra:No la It's lavender and light green

Grandmother use to have a collection she brought from China.
The jade bangle, it broke while I was on a uniformed duty. I had to throw away them pieces after some old folks advise me that it has done its duty and its bad luck to keep the broken pieces.
The rest of the jade i have is those donut shaped ones. And I only managed to buy some leather strings to string them for wearing like new fashion jewellery... -
probably if the ring is old, the rock is old too? something like buy it cheap then reset it.Originally posted by the Bear:how do you know it is an old rock?

Once my grandma's jade ring broke (no particular reason) she was washing dishes and all, so she walked away to throw it, and after she walked away, the mirror hanging on top of the sink crashed to where she was standing -

And dont need so much bones. Only a handful ashes is enough to make a big enough rock. -
