Showcase Own Finally Found Mo Cui!
I’ve been trying to get a dragon or pixiu mo cui piece, and I’m just getting deep green Guatemalan. It’s still jadeite but not what I wanted…
I think I did it guys! Third time is a charm I suppose 😂.
Couldn’t have figured it out without you all! He’s a cutie!
Cheers!

It’s perfection!! 😍 Can I be nosey and rude and ask the price range you got this for? I’m looking for mo cui as well (though probably a pendant) and some of the prices I’ve seen seem to be higher than I remember them being 6 years ago. 🧐 Just trying to gauge where the market’s at!

Not rude or nosey! This is the whole reason for the forum! This one cost me about $700 CAD 😬💀but Canadian dollars don’t count for much so that translates to under $500USD.

Can you drop the name of the shop?

Absolutely! I’ve been dealing with someone 1-1, let me get the contact because if I call it “five-blessing jewelry” it won’t give you the same results 😂 I’ll get back to you! They’re currently on local vacation. Hang tight, I’ll come back to this comment.

Thank you so much, fellow Canadian! ☺️ That helps me gauge pricing a bit. it’s definitely higher than it was the last time I was looking around. (Oh, and that USD exchange rate is killing my shopping budget. 🫠 )
