JF,
The pieces you posted are really something. :love:

LK,
The cuff links are very unique. Do you think the wearer would wear them with just any shirt or would take the colour combination into consideration? :cheeky:

Hehe... yeah, that's a good point. I think as long as they're paired with another green something (like an olive green tie) they'd fit nicely.

Velouria, I love the Polly Wales bands, different & so pretty. Also on the Gemgossip site, the snake choker is outtasight. I love snake jewelry.

Michele della Valle, scales are yellow diamonds & rubies, yellow diamond on head.


Maker unknown. Beautiful goldwork on scales:


Then there are other, ahem, animals.
Cartier brooch, looks like a black opal (?), opal eye, holding a carved emerald w/diamond:


One of my favorites. David Webb sculpture on rock crystal base, enamel, gold, diamond elephants
holding an aquamarine, set w/cabochon emeralds & rubies:


This is another great site for browsing. http://www.jewelsdujour.com/

It sure is. Wouldn't you love to have that sitting on your dressing table? (If you had a dressing table.)

This one is so cute! A hippo is an unlikely subject for jewelry because it's a graceless creature.

Preg, the necklace using rough and cut diamonds is very creative and the details on all the pieces are masterful. Thanks for sharing.

I am totally in LOVE with the hippo, LK! He's the cutest little guy on earth -- and beautifully rendered.

What I wouldn't give for the snake necklace, too, Preg. Opals are an inspired ingredient & it's so sensuous, delicate, & accurate at once.

Here's a bangle by Bulgari, circa 1960. I wonder whether the scales are lapis or enamel -- but he's definitely got personality.


Unusual Brooches:

A fish, Rene Boivin:


One of my favorites, by Nardi. I love the gold (straw) texture & the sapphires on the ribbon.


Unknown maker, peacock feather:

Kite, do love the elegant dendrite brooch. And Velourial I love the Polly Wales rings... .it looks like the metal is just melting away and you're discovering the gems. I wonder if it looks as well on the hand? Gayani1 what a feminine necklace. Thanks all for sharing.

Setting a diamond in the mouth of the hippo is useless unless it is presenting me a loose diamond I can set and wear. :devil: :bigsmile:

Whenever I want to blow my mind on jewelry design, I just go look at what Hans Meevis is working on. His creativity just blows my mind. I can have the same stuff in front of me and it is just metal and stone compared.
