I have a pink jade bangle bracelet I inherited from my mother. She and my dad traveled extensively throughout the far east, so I’m sure this bracelet was purchased there, although I have no idea which country. My mother has left notes with many of her jewelry pieces indicating where they were purchased. But,unfortunately I didn’t find anything like that with the bracelet.

I live in New Mexico close to Albuquerque. Could you please give me name(s) of jewelers I can trust to tell me the value of my bracelet? I thoroughly enjoyed reading your article, but the range of quality and value is so large I am left with no idea what my bracelet is worth.

Thank you for your anticipated attention to my request and for your extremely informative article.
