Shades of green...

@Bluegemz gorgeous.
Sharing some JAR green earrings that are TDF. These are from a few years ago when I attended the JAR exhibit. Aren't these exquisite?

Oh goodness! I love JAR. I have a book about him at home....such fabulous, playful and nature inspired pieces. The earrings are amazing!

If there was a LOVE button for all of the beautiful gems in this thread, I would be mashing it over and over.
Here are a few of mine.
My green-blue aqua that is with DK waiting for me to make up my mind on a setting:



A soft green emerald:



Three more greens from an old family shot:



And finally, the JAR piece that sent me on to discover his weird and wonderful world.

WOW! Gorgeous pieces every single one of them and I cannot wait to see what you do with your green blue aqua. I know DK will help you realize your dream piece. Just beautiful.

Is this green enough to count? I rediscovered this, my dad gifted this to me when I was in my early teens, it doesn’t fit me anymore, not sure what to do with it. I am not sure about value either and I definitely don’t know much about jade.

Looks like jadeite. I love the freshness of the young greens on the white. Treasure it well!

Speaking of green...anyone interested in some green from last night's Oscar ceremony?

TDF emerald and diamond earrings.
Octavia Spencer in Lorraine Schwartz

The Oscar winner adds has a matchy-matchy moment adding $1.8 million of Lorraine Schwartz jewelry including 40-carat Colombian emerald-and-diamond drop earrings to her green gown. She tops it off with a 10-carat cushion cut diamond ring.

Just greenlicious.

Always have fun wearing this!

 

[Deia]

That is such a pretty bracelet!

I started spending more time on PS last year learning about colored stones and I think green might be my favorite too. I only have two green stones. One is cut & set by Kosnar. It’s a grossular garnet. The other is an unset tsavorite cut by Steve from Westview Gems. It’s only 1.00ct but such a delicious green!

Sometimes It’s easy being green
My DH enjoys his watch rotation.

 

[missy]

Other tomes it’s a bit more expensive being green but oh so glorious in green.




In time for St Patty’s next weekend.

Gosh I’m sorry to hog the thread and I’m running late but couldn’t resist this last pic of the day. Omg. Look at HRH Francesca and her glowy green eyes and check out King Fred behind her. He photobombed this pic and I didn’t realize his green glowy eyes got into the photo too haha. Fred is off to the right behind HRH.

LOVE this! I have a black kitty, and these crazy, glowing eyes sum-up his wonderful personality perfectly!

Aren't black kitties the sweetest? I love them all but my goodness the glowy eyes against their black hair is eye catching.
Would love to see a photo of your black kitty if you felt like sharing.

Yes, they both are, but I think they may be haunted. Either that, or you're a witch and they're your familiars!

As long as you are nice to me you are A OK my dear as I think you are a sweetheart....I reserve my venom for those I don't like ...bwahahahaha

 

[minousbijoux]

Excellent! I have mice and no matter what I do, I can't seem to have them pack their little bags and leave. Maybe I should borrow your lovelies for a while? With those laser eyes, the mice wouldn't stand a chance!

ETA: and oops, I'm glad this is your thread, as I realized I just threadjacked...but really, who can resist cuties in fur coats?!!

C'mon over what's mine is yours and of course I am happy to share my lovelies with you.

But oops it isn't my thread and my apologies to @jstarfireb for our mini threadjack. Carry on and long live the beauty and magic and good of green.

 

[missy]

Another green beauty. Sadly not mine but I’m so tempted and it’s probably gone by now. I saw it last spring at the antique jewelry show. A gorgeous brooch.



Now this is a kitty cat. Meoooow.

 

[Bluegemz]

Not mine, but thinking of your cats and cat jewelry!

Presenting, Squeakers! (Because he squeaks...) He was our foster fail. He's the most obnoxious cat ever, but SO sweet!

Here is my favourite green- mint garnet

Thank you for sharing.

Thank you so much!

This is next in line for setting. I’m planning to look for a readymade setting for it soon! Maybe I’ll find something end of this month
