I''m passionate about opera, and it did occur to us there are some operas which do feature jewelry. The Ring would be the most obvious, the Pearl Fishers a bit of a stretch - can anybody think of anything else? Or, any random comments on things operatic? Any prima donnas out there?

"Such is the beauty of Karinska's costumes... that audiences ... gasped each time the curtain was raised on Peter Harvey's bare set, which features jewels (the light changing them from emeralds to rubies to diamonds) dripping down the backdrop. To their great credit, the Kirov dancers lived up to the promise of enchantment implicit in the bejeweled silk bodices..."
