Or a "Diamonds by the Yard" necklace... Or some lovely diamond drop earrings... What kind of jewelry do you wear the most (rings, necklaces, earrings?) __________________________________________________________ "You come to love not by finding the perfect person, but by seeing an imperfect person perfectly" ~ Sam Keen

I 2nd the notion of a Diamonds By The Yard necklace ... it will look lovely alone or with other necklaces & it's a classic. You could get pretty sizable stones, fairly close together ... OR ... spend part of the budget on that and get A halo cushion sapphire RHR?? ---OR--- A canary diamond halo or three stone RHR ---OR---- Pear drops for your current studs ---OR---- a stack of delicate micropave bands in pink & white & yellow --or pink & black & white -- or white & champagne & chocolate I COULD GO ON & ON & ON

JulieA Rough Rock Total Posts: 90 Last Post: 9/13/2007 Member Since: 6/24/2007	So many good necklace choices- but I always seem to forget to wear the ones I have! I am thinking I have to go with earrings (I wear some sort of earrings everyday) or RHR. But ring is hard because I do not want it to compete with my e-ring. Dangle earrings- what shape, style, diamond cut jumps out at ya?

JulieA Rough Rock Total Posts: 90 Last Post: 9/13/2007 Member Since: 6/24/2007	So many ideas- but i can not use credit for just any great jewelry- it has to go towards diamond only. So no colored stones or other. Will pears added to studs look sort of fancy? i want to try to get something I would wear often. 3 stone rhr- the diamonds would be on the small side to get 3 for $15,000? I will go look at prices...

risingsun Ideal Rock Total Posts: 3,418 Last Post: 11/23/2009 Member Since: 12/19/2006	I would say either a RHR or drop earrings. If you don't want a RHR to overpower your w-set, get both! For 15K, you should be able to do quite well. You are the fortunate one ~Marian ______________________________________ "It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that bling..."

Does anyone know if that is a small round with halo leverback- or just one huge diamond on a leverback??? That looks like one huge diamond - not a halo. I wish I could afford them!!! They look like the big sister of Alj's beautiful leverbacks.

Are you referring to the Kate Winslet picture? I wasn't sure. I got that pic from another PS thread where someone wanted to find replicas of the earrings. I think it was from a magazine article. Just in case you were referring to that picture.

Just in case you were referring to that picture. That pic looks familiar to me...they might have been Harry Winston bezel set diamond earrings on Kate. I think I saw it in a mag. If you put a bezel around two stones that could make them look larger - for your $15k credit. jeannie Jeannie
