Jade

I like the wet market that has roving vendors.  This morning, there is a China lady who sells jade.  I quite like her pieces and some of them looked nice to me.  Finally, I bought one piece from her.  She wanted $280 and I negotiate down to $200.  I am her first customer.  I like the piece because it is translucent.  She called it Relaxed Sitting Kuan Yin.  Kuan Yin is my favorite goddess as she is the Goddess of Mercy.  So I thought I will get it as it is wearable since it is quite flat. 

There is another piece which I was quite interested in.  She says it is a Pee Yao and holding on to wealth.  Purple in color with yellow stripe.  The purple is quite light.  I did not want to buy 2 pieces, so I gave up on that piece.
