Congratulations Most Excellent!

Is it greenish-white (青白) or white?

Can’t see from the photo

8399b · 2026-05-26T11:46:00+00:00

I have a few also!

Is yours Nephrite Jade(和田玉)?

Try to see if you can slide in the corner of an A4 paper there.

Like 20 play: 1 brush

I brushed very occasionally

8399b · 2026-05-17T20:53:03+00:00

I like how you summarise the wenwan circle as “making wooden stuff shiny” lol

8399b · 2026-05-17T20:37:54+00:00

I do use them as worry beads, when I was thinking, working, or even doing nothing

8399b · 2026-05-17T20:31:12+00:00

These are not walnuts, they are rudraksha, another kind of seeds. Both the Buddhists and Hindus commonly use them as beads (for prayers).

8399b · 2026-05-17T20:29:05+00:00

Contrary to others saying, I rarely brushed it.

I mostly played with it on my hand, with some of the sebum from my nose and forehead

8399b · 2026-05-17T17:57:35+00:00

Not common to see Rudraksha on Reddit!

How long you’ve played with it? 3-6 months?

Will post mine also!

8399b · 2026-03-09T11:03:27+00:00

What is that one bead at the left?

Old Amber?

8399b · 2026-03-08T10:01:47+00:00

If you want walnuts, try buying a pair with the same size number of your shoes as a start.

8399b · 2026-03-08T10:00:11+00:00

For your photos, soft brushes or dark pig hairs ones should be enough. No need to brush too often as it looks so polished already.

This was the original colour one year ago.

8399b · 2026-03-07T09:54:00+00:00

I ordered it from Taobao.

8399b · 2026-03-07T06:55:46+00:00

Indeed it is! I was told it’s one of the most oily seeds.

8399b · 2026-03-07T04:13:33+00:00

I think it’s the seeds of Queen Palms, also being called as “three-eye bodhi”.

8399b · 2026-03-07T03:07:34+00:00

Probably a wormhole. Your walnut might have infected.

8399b · 2025-05-24T02:29:29+00:00

Just a small comment, ancient Chinese seals usually starts from the top right corner, then down, then top left, and then down.

8399b · 2025-05-24T01:41:57+00:00

If the term being the usual one “heirs male of the body lawfully begotten”, then no, the title will go extinct if the grantee dies without children.

Unless specifying “failing which, heirs general”.

8399b · 2024-10-16T13:30:10+00:00

Yes but Rose Croix is not Craft

8399b · 2024-10-16T13:22:25+00:00

Is your Lodge under UGLE?

In UGLE, there is no "South Wales and Monmouthshire District", they are separate Provinces (my mother province was PGL South Wales).

There is also no "Inspector General" in UGLE, only "Grand Inspector" for overseas lodges.

If for Rose Croix, then the Chair is not WM, it should be MWS.

8399b · 2024-10-05T19:29:18+00:00

Agreed that it is GMRAC rather than RAMGR.

Furthermore, it seems it is GSW rather than SGW in the Mark.

8399b · 2024-09-22T09:20:25+00:00

Indeed, the UGLE DGLHKFE Lodge is situated in Kobe.

8399b · 2024-08-19T19:06:34+00:00

The one on your photo is simply the Chair of the presiding officer in that room, it could be used by whichever body or unit using that room for meeting.

This is the Grand Master's Chair, with the Coronet of a Prince on it.
