The water jades are done. I have a diamond hoop with Ceylon sapphires that I can interchange with the jadeites. The water jades can also be a pendant.

I just adore those jadeite earrings! Beautiful with the metal leaves too.

Zircon with a tiny diamond in YG. The color of the zircons is a hard to describe rosy-coppery-gold mix that does wonders for my complexion.

Unfortunately while easy to wear not easy to photograph while wearing. :/

Wow these are incredible! The translucency of the jade is top-notch!

I can finally play in this thread! Spotted these a few weeks ago and they finally arrived - sterling silver post-soviet Art Deco style French cut black agate dormeuse. I’ve been wanting to try dangles for a while and these looked pretty and were reasonably priced. Plus I’m a sucker for French cuts in any stone it seems :roll2::lol-2:
Vendor pic first:
7C0E7D20-11B2-4DC3-8C68-0F8842777C6F.jpeg
Then unboxed
4AF4781B-C475-463C-AE63-41A0717601FC.jpeg
And crappy earshot (also too much with the OEC stud??)
15BD6683-EE56-47A5-81E4-16C77B48DAB5.jpeg
So far really happy with them. I need to read up on how robust agate is if I want to wear them all the time..

Oh, this is very lovely and looks beautiful on your ears. :love: Dangles suit you very well. :appl:
Organic and pretty on you. Love the art deco style.
I don't know much about agate but it seems it has a hardness of 7 so I think that is pretty good for earring wear. Here is more info. It has nice healing properties.:appl:

These are so pretty! Really different and striking.
I love that unusual closure!

Mrs-b I LOVE your earring reset. You inspired me to dig out my loose south sea pearls to think about getting them set! Too bad mine are fully drilled :( I dislike the look of metal under the pearl...

Repurposed from 2 pairs of earrings.

Small diamond hoops and yellow diamond halo dangles.

Hi @Crystal_Dreams :))

What size are your pearls? I feel like I thought through every possible iteration of pearls before these were made. Happy to share with you any ideas I have!

To be honest I’m not sure how big they are! They were a gift purchased from the Paspaley pearl farms... just eyeballing them I would guesstimate 10-11mm rounds! I have 8-8.5mm hanadamas and they are certainly larger than them...

Just bought these last night! They're Art Deco sapphire & diamond earrings, likely converted from a bracelet at some point. The sapphires appear to be a mix of natural and synthetics from the period, with roughly 1.84 CTW of sapphires and .36 CTW of diamonds, all bezel set with milgrain finish. Total length is about 2".

Once they arrive, I'll post more photos.

GORGEOUS! Can't wait to see them.

I didn't use to like dangles because I felt they got in the way which is weird because I have very short hair so they show up well on my ears. Now, I absolutely love dangle earrings.

These are coming on Satruday, just in time for a trip to Vegas . I'll have to take them out and teach them how to behave like nice earrings in public.:mrgreen: sorry for the price tag, so gauche. I had edited it out, but magically, it reappeared.

I also have these stunners, more than 100 years old with mine cut diamonds and rubies: earrings_on.jpg

I'll post more later.

Wearing 22k dangles. I love that they are not as yellow as the typical 916 gold, those can look garish on me.

I love plain orb dangles - lovely!
