Upgrading my current 2.14ct FVVS2 MRB to as big as budget allows (plus own USD5k)
I'd upgrade my 3.05 F VS2 ACA.
I'm so creative....
You are my people!! I'm very new to fine jewelry, and im loving this thread! That marquise eternity is a bit spectacular.
Yeah during Covid 19 I am not sure I am keen to attend any shows where there might be too many people. Next year or 2022 for sure. I hope we will be pandemic free by 2022.
Off on a tangent I wish you could all come and live here for the duration
We are now covid free again after we got control of our 2nd wave that only effected the Auckland region
Every one from that last cluster is now recovered and we have had no community transmission for about 2 weeks
The boarder issues seem sorted out- like the whole world we are learning on the job and kind of making it up as we go along
But we don't need to social distance right now - although our neighbourhod supernarket still prefers it as they have narrow isles
And ﹰMacdonalds are serving coffee in real cups again
I am so happy for you and all your loved ones @Daisys and Diamonds!!!
Safety and well being and good health are priceless and worth more than any (no matter how yummy) piece of bling or collection. Period.
15K is 10xs more than my engagement ring cost! It's an incredible amount of money and considering my job and lifestyle it's not something I'd feel comfortable wearing daily. It's easy enough to spend, but I think wearing what I buy would be the problem. Let's spend it anyway!
Can I buy 3 pieces?
4 ctw emerald cut eternity ring. At IDJ that's about 5,600$
As close to 2 ctw I could get for matching oecs. At JBG that's about 6,000$ but I'd design settings so maybe 7,000$
Chunky 3-4mm wide band to wear with the emerald cut eternity ring. Maybe another 1,000$ depending on what it is.
With the leftover money I'd buy a good weight gold chain with an adjustable length because I don't have one.
A girl's gotta daydream right? And bling is always a nice dream to have and it can come true! I hope your necklace dream does come true @Snowdrop13!
Yeah it doesn't go very far when one is talking diamond studs. :/
Most days I wish I had only one ear!

This is my thinking too...but with OEC studs. Maybe Lab OECs. I am still mulling it over.
I seriously wish I could buy my much smaller (I’m shooting for 1-1.5tcw) lab OEC studs ahead of you so you had a thorough review in your hands!
it’ll be a while now, unfortunately. If a purchase is $3k or less I am far more willing to take a risk - although it’s a lot of cash, it won’t devastate me
I will be watching intently if you take the plunge!
ok ok
my secrete dream is a hair orniment/ statement piece
maybe it could be done for US $15k
hopefully two agapanthas
one in silver with dismonds - lab ok -not huge diamonds, small but not melee - sparkly to the max
then gold and saphires
the size of real agapanthus- the big ones that grow wild on the side of the road here
not too long stalks but long enough so when i wore it at the back of my head one of the agapanthus could be seen at the front
maybe lab saphires?
its mainly about the flower being represented in the silver/ gold - the stones are just a sparkly accent
i could get a local jewlery student to make it
maybe just gold plated - maybe just both flowers in silver ?
i love agapanthus
i want them for my wedding flower so Gary always does car oil changes on the agapanthus
at mum's funeral we had roses for people to place on the coffin but i got the florist to get me a couple of agapanthus - so mum would know it was me ! mum didn't really love agapanthas
A 1-1.5 fancy yellow pear diamond pendant. I would ask Victor Canera to do the pave setting in fancy yellow diamonds.
I would purchase antique dangling earrings with nice clear diamonds! Earrings, I could wear day and night too!
I would buy 15 $1k things
15 different coloured lab stone solitaires!
Tennis bracelet- I feel like that’s such a classic piece and I would get lots of long-term wear out of a good quality one.
