Size guide

A bangle is rigid and must pass over the widest part of the hand. To measure: lay your hand flat and take the width across the widest point — thumb excluded — with a ruler. Match it in the chart below: between two rows, take the larger; add 1–2 mm if you like the bangle to slip on and off more easily.

Hand at widest	Round bangle, inner diameter	Oval bangle, inner diameter
62–66 mm	50–52 mm	51–54 mm
66–70 mm	52–54 mm	53–56 mm
70–74 mm	54–56 mm	55–58 mm
74–78 mm	56–58 mm	57–60 mm
78–82 mm	58–60 mm	59–62 mm

Across a sharp diagonal line, the nephrite jade of this flat bangle turns from a dark ink grey, veined with paler smoke, to cream white, with a few black flecks scattered into the white like spilled ink; the grey takes up most of the hoop. The band is broad and flat, its edges softened and its face polished smooth. Untreated nephrite jade, inner diameter 58 mm, band 16 × 7 mm, 57.6 g. One of a kind.

Nephrite or jadeite? Both are jade, and both are exceptionally tough. Nephrite is the tougher of the two, with a softer, quieter luster; jadeite is harder and glassier. Natural nephrite jade is the principal stone in every JIE JIANG piece; where a piece also carries jadeite, its product page says so. The species is written on the tag, and for high-value pieces a GIA identification report is available on request.

Does it change with wear? Physically, a little: nephrite is very tough but not scratch-proof, so years of daily wear can leave fine surface marks. It does not fade or change colour.

Water and sweat? Fine for hand-washing and rain. Take it off for pools, hot tubs and sport: chlorine and sweat wear on silk thread and metal findings rather than on the stone. Dry it before storing.
