I was looking at my rings, because working from home gets dull and it was a break time. I love Caysie of CvB's work. This is my little grouping for now. I love the details and special touches on her pieces. The pale blue sapphire is Moody and shifts from blue grey to very pastel in different lighting.

Does anyone else have a grouping of pieces from one designer too?

Show us!

No I don't, but I have a bit of envy over yours! :kiss2:

I gotta say I am LOVING all the "collection" photos that shelter-in-place is inspiring :cool2:

@elizat You've got an exquisite CvB collection!! And I find it interesting that I can see clear stylistic similarities through the different designs - they all "look CvB"! That sort of brand recognition is... impressive and powerful :appl:

I would have a very hard time deciding which of those pretties to wear every morning :love:

Thank you! Her work has a very distinct vibe. I love it. I have a large pear green tsav garnet coming and I have to decide on the setting once it arrives, assuming it's a keeper. I'll have her do the work on that one too.

Thank you for the sweet compliments!

Maybe I'm one of the few that has a hoard by one vendor!

HI:

Gehry for Tiffany. Also, at one point, I had many gold and gemstone pieces by Flica. I regret getting rid of my white gold lariat by them.

cheers--Sharon

I have a collection from the custom designer I’ve worked with many times, named Taylor, at Ft Thomas Jewelers in Highland Heights, Ky. She and I designed all of these.

Here you go :) @elizat


The two white ones are White Gold

The last photo - The NS emerald cut is a J VS1 with about 1.5 carats in the setting’s rounds and carre cuts.

Two photos of the EW set - The EW set emerald is a .8 E VS1 - it’s has so much fire for an emerald. I love how that set turned out. I get so many compliments on these two rings when worn as a set.

The pear is a L 2.75, VVS1 - it’s has a bow tie and it’s color is a bit noticeable in the 18k YG bezel but it’s a special stone to me, flaws and all. This bezel was something I had in my head that Taylor helped me get in the CAD. The gallery is quite geometric as you can see. It’s an old stone with a SUPER thin girdle, so the bezel is about protecting the girdle but I wanted the ring on the stone to be very fine - the table of this stone is HUGE! The star facets are sop tiny :)

The bypass is a .5 IF E asscher and a lilac sapphire in a deep, textured YG bezel with a stone finish - It’s a pinky ring, so 2 sizes smaller than the other rings.

I would happily hoard by vendor ::) It seems like a very natural thing to do - if you like a particular aesthetic, and there's a vendor who also happens to espouse that particular aesthetic... Match guaranteed!

I guess I've got a baby Erika Winters collection... I would love to add her Viola and Helena bands and turn it into a grown up collection :bigsmile:

Did your other setting finish? I was thinking about you. Can't wait to see pictures.

@yssie, is there a thread with hand shots of your Erika Winters wedding set? It looks yummy!

Beautiful!

I love her work and she's on my list to purchase from one day. Her details are gorgeous.

Those linear earrings are so lovely!

Her prong work and the graceful swoops are little works of art. What a photo! :appl::kiss2::appl:

Hello!
Hope everyone is well and staying safe.
Just thought I would add my Tiffany "fancy necklace, earrings and bracelet set" to this thread. I know seeing pretty things makes me feel better and more in touch with things that brought a smile back in the "old days." Those days will rise again soon! :wavey:
It's a set from 1994.. the date is imprinted on the inside near the clasp.
I think the collection is called "Floret." I have looked and looked and have never been able to find any of the pieces in an old Tiffany catalog.
The earrings are from a collection called "Aria" and they are not an exact match but blend nicely.
