Review from Jess C.

Came here looking for jade bangles and they sure had some. I ended up taking a look around while I was at it. About $59.99 a bangle, but atleast you know they are made from natural jade. Unlike those jade stores in Chinatown, where you can't be sure what you're getting.
They also had some lovely jade rings in various sizes in a box on the counter. I was almost going to buy one but somehow decided against it. They only sell locally made BC jade (dark green variety), so if you're looking for Asian jade (lighter green and white variety), they wouldn't have it here.
Jade isn't cheap, so even if you don't plan on buying anything, it's still pretty cool to have a look around. If you go to the back of the store, there's some beautiful jade carvings (I believe Native artwork) inside the glass cabinets that are worth having a look at. -

Jade is the new black -- if you're into green gems and stones. Otherwise, the staff here will tell you that Jade is two stones, Nephrite and Jadeite. The tough looking smooth stones are very pretty and shiny. Jewellery, earrings, sculptures, vases, art and wall decor and other gift items can be bought here.
I actually got a present from here of a Jade frog (that I re-gifted) But really! Why do I need a jade frog? Do you blame me? Okay the creativity and artistry is amazing and it's a cool place to explore if you like Jade.
