I just love love love your earrings. I have always loved emerald cuts. Where did ever find those earrings? I think your the first PS''er to have EC earring? Anyhow, have a wonderful B/D!
No! am I really the first on PS with EC studs? Surely not?
I searched high and low for them and found them in a wee jewellers in Edinburgh. I had searched online and found that the majority of studs were either RBs or Princess cut, neither my preferance and ECs were rare but more expensive.
I''m very happy with them and they are bigger than I had anticipated 4.36 x 3.51 x 2.43mm, which is always a bonus and being an EC girl I know that ECs aren''t always as big as the other cuts.
These are lovely - mind telling me which jeweller? I live near Edinburgh and I would love a pair like that! I used to window shop in the Argyll arcade a lot, and when I couldn''t afford them, EC studs were in one or two of the stores. Now? I never see them and I would love a pair.
I will ask hubbie as he did the actual purchase however I gave the instructions (of course). I''m not sure how much they were but he assures me that the ''wee shop in Edinburgh'' was very reasonable. As you can see I''m taking his word for it. I''ll let you know as soon as I have all the juicy details.
Very pretty! You''re gonna have to work to keep those clean so they stay sparkly! Rounds are much more forgiving in the dirt department!! That may be why there aren''t a lot of EC earrings.
Shameless bump! I too live near Edinburgh and am always on the lookout for a reasonable jewelry shop! I agree that ECs aren''t too common here......went to George St before I ordered my ring through Whiteflash.....virtually no ECs to be had! Your studs are gorgeous!
Mrs Mitchell: love Argyll Arcade! DH bought his watch from Laings there......lots of pretty things allllll in one place
hiya. husband is refusing to tell me where he bought my EC studs, he''s still insisting he bought them from a jewellers in Edinburgh. I have a feeling he arranged the purchase thro my cousin who lives in Philadelphia. I''m not complaining but I''ll get to the bottom of this.
Weegem, did you save buying from Whiteflash? Oh, and can you show us some pics of your e-ring please?
Lol! Well please let us know when/if your hubbie spills all!
Yes, I''ve saved quite a bit by going with Whiteflash......maybe as much as 1/3 to 1/2? I''d gone to Hamilton & Inches and Lime Blue to see how far my money would go here (not that far I found lol!) and to try on rings with different carat sizes. As an aside, the girl who helped me at H&I was SO helpful and accommodating, showed me lots of different rings and even wedding bands too.....I know they would have been able to create a beautiful ring for me. In contrast, the girl (supposedly the manager) at Lime Blue practically sneered at me, she was so snobby and generally rude.....blah. So for future purchases (when I can afford it), it''s H&I for me!!
I don''t have my ring from Whiteflash yet; flying over to pick it up in about 2 1/2 weeks....can''t wait!! I''ll post pics and the specs when I do though.
