TRADE MEMBERS: Show us the love! Fav. red, pink, or heart!

[Ella]

Following in the footsteps of our other popular trade threads and in the honor of Valentine's Day, trade members please post your ONE favorite red, pink, or heart piece!

For this series of threads alone, we are lifting our policy of not allowing trade to show their own items. A little fun!

The rules:

1. Trade may post their ONE favorite piece in their store/of their own in this thread. No prices, no "selling", but descriptions are welcomed!
2. ONE link to the item on your website is allowed if you wish.
3. Photos must be posted directly in this thread
4. All other PS rules apply.

HAVE FUN and don't mess with my rules so we can do this more often.

Re: TRADE MEMBERS: Show us the love! Fav. red, pink, or hear

oh fun! Thanks Ella.

This is one of my fav pieces in my collection. I love pink and peach and all those soft, feminine colours. It is a custom cut morganite with antique french cut diamonds, that I just happened to luck out finding. There are also some pink diamonds, scattered about in the shank of the ring, under the culet, and in the rounds of the band.

here is a mega close up video of it.

OMG Ella thank you so much for doing this! I've been dying to brag about my new Love Affair Diamonds/CvB collaboration pinkish purple star sapphire ring that I just got (named The Jocelyn!)!! **edited by moderator, no sales speak please**

First pic I'll post the basket because I love the hearts on the side, then of course it wouldn't be an AthenaWorth post if I didn't post a ton of pics of it. Stars are such a PITA to photograph. Oy. But man this is a pretty little model.

Athenaworth, Gorgeous ring! I really love all the colors in it. That purple stone and setting together are amazing. I've never seen anything like it before. Great pics, too!

This is gorgeous. The color is almost 'real' heart-like.

Fun thread!

Here's mine - a combination of hearts AND pink! My Bella Halo, done in two tone rose gold and platinum! My new design team (CVB) made some tweaks to the basket, which I love, and the two-tone doughnut makes me all lightheaded.

A bit rustic for my liking, but I dig it.

Re: TRADE MEMBERS: Show us the love! Fav. red, pink, or hear

What a great thread - thanks, Ella!

Here's mine: it's an enormous heart of smokey quartz, custom cut for me by a lapidary from Ida Oberstein lo these many years ago ... almost 20 years, if I remember correctly! I set it in a simple silver bezel as a statement necklace, and it never fails to start a conversation.

More pics at the link ... happy Valentine's Day, y'all!

Here is my favourite red heart piece I have at the moment - our Jewel Collective Juno necklace (named after the Roman goddess of marriage)! The centre is a 16 x 12mm cabochon garnet surrounded by white sapphire pave, set in yellow gold vermeil.

Re: TRADE MEMBERS: Show us the love! Fav. red, pink, or hear

thanks motownmama! I actually wear mine all the time. It's a lovely weight. I also did it in sterling silver with a mabe pearl centre! The design work took quite a while to get all the proportions right. I am really pleased with how it turned out
