Hello all, Yesterday I received a box with some leaves from Tony - Nephrite. He wanted to sent them directly to me saying he is going to send me some more jade. I thought "some more jade" would mean one or more slabs, so I took a walk to the post office with the thought I'm going to pick a small, light box. WRONG! the box was pretty big and, most of all, heavy! Heavier than I expected looking at its volume, even though I'm used by now with the heavy boxes containing rocks. When I got home and opened it, I understood why: Tony sent me a whole boulder of jade coming from the ocean's depths. It's solid like steel and almost as same as heavy! I had no idea jade is such a dense rock! Thank you Tony, I'm planning to make a knife from this rock and of course to keep a piece of it to polish on its natural surface. Oh and of course there were the leaves in that box, Tony already posted them but here they are again: Thank you very much Tony! You are a really generous person! Thank you all for looking, Adrian
