A New Pink Sapphire Creature has Joined the Menagerie[with a friend]

[Catmom]

My hubby spoils me rotten. Even though my ring was supposed to be my 40th Anniversary present he took me to my favorite jewelry shop on Sanibel and this little pink sapphire and diamond creature was there calling to me from the estate section. "Oh Catmom......Catmom.... I would fit in great with all your other creatures!" Oh dear, it wasn't a pin/brooch but there was a lovely pin/brooch sitting just next to him, perfect for the upcoming season. Oh what to do??? I really love Mr. Pinky though. But the other was ready to go. Decisions...decisions! Did I mention hubby spoils me rotten? Just get both he says and turn Mr. Pinky into a pin. I think hubby regretted uttering those words because before they were even out of his mouth they were both mine, lol. So here is Mr. Pinky all nice and retrofitted into a pin/brooch. 18kt rose gold with 1.75cttw of graduated pink sapphires and .20cttw of diamonds. Oh and 1 blue sapphire eye, lol. His friend, the autumn leaf is really a stunner in person. My pictures just don't do it justice. 18kt yellow gold with 1.60cttw of graduated yellow to dark orange sapphires and .15cttw diamonds.

For some odd reason they just seem to follow me home, lol. Yes, they both sparkle like mad in the sunshine.
