Show me your Tiffany & Co

[butterfly 17]

Here are my two Elsa Peretti diamond by the yard bracelets, one with 5 diamonds and the other with 5 blue sapphires. The bangle is from Whiteflash with ACA melee.

One more picture.

 

[Love Street]

OK here are some face up shots... I can''t believe I''ve been a PS member since I got my ring in 2003 and these are the first face up shots I''ve posted here!

 

[Love Street]

I haven''t cleaned them recently - they''re dirty!! I didn''t realize how dirty until I was looking at the macro shots on the computer... those aren''t inclusions. Oh yeah, the ctr is .83 H VS1.

 

[Love Street]

And finally a coverage hand shot. The rings are size 6; my fingers are pretty short.

 

[MoonWater]

Gorgeous! We have the same finger size as well so it''s nice to see how a .83 covers your finger!

canuk-gal- Could you post a pic with the necklace on? I am considering it as a wedding gift. It is so classic!

I''m wondering whether Tiffany''s would replace/repair my prongs and how much it would cost - anyone get repair done by them? They replaced a melee free of charge once but that was within a year of buying the ring.

I''ve always thought that T&Co offer lifetime complimentary servicing on their (diamond) pieces.
Last year I had a prong on my wedding band repaired by them and wasn''t charged for it.

kathy what happened to your prong? here is my set (no side view pics yet sorry), I think the shared prong rubs against the bottom of the ering as well, but really it is not bad at all. I think all shared prongs do.

Love your set! How many carats?

When I had my rings checked by them last November the gemologist saw that one of the prongs on my wedding band had bent a little so I had it sent away for repair.

 

[Kissmark]

Ah I see, so it''s not because the eternity is rubbing against your ering.
Mine is 1.27 carat

Me too!

That''s nice that they were proactive for you. My former SA was awesome, but since I''ve moved states I feel like I don''t have an advocate at Tiffany''s here. I went in yesterday to ask about the wear on my four prongs (which is microns thin, seriously) and was told that whether it was repaired free of charge was at the discretion of customer service

I''m thinking that if and when I decide to get the prongs replaced and the ring resized for a RHR I''ll do it in conjunction with a trip to see my old SA...

Hi Lovestreet where is your favorite store?

I kinda have a homebase one but haven''t needed much more than a cleaning so far.

 

[lisa1.01fvs1]

I posted these in the other thread but wanted to cover all bases.....

So it isn''t really classic, but I thought I''d share anyway because I just got it...

Just wanted to share a pic of my husband''s wedding ring - it''s the 6mm milgrain ring in 18K gold with platinum inlay (I plan on getting the 3mm one for myself one day)
(bottom two rings are mine)

Hi Lovestreet where is your favorite store?

Hi Lisa! Wow, you have a beautiful collection!!!

The T & Co where I got my ring (where my super nice SA was) is in Houston, where we were living at the time. We''re back in the LA area now (soooo happy to be back here

) but I haven''t found "my person" at the stores here - either Beverly Hills or Costa Mesa. I prefer the Costa Mesa store just since it''s less crowded and traffic is easier from where I am.

What about you?

 

[lisa1.01fvs1]

Thanks Lovestreet - I go to Costa Mesa Too!!

I can certainly recommend Hiro (very nice Japanese fellow or Cindy Yang - personal shopper).

But I am collecting bands outside the reatil market (ebay, etc.( because they are so darn expensive!

 

[erica k]

lisa, i love your stack! and olivia looks so adorable in her hanbok!

oh, if only a 1ct looked as huge on my hand, i would buy from Tiffany without hesitation. the costa mesa Tiffany''s is my favorite. my mom and i always go there to stare at the sparklies when i''m home.

i should post photos of my Gehry Torque ring, but the satin finish has worn off and it looks less than presentable.

 

[lisa1.01fvs1]

Erica you are a doll!

And I''m embarassed to admit this but I couldn''t remember what the dress was called - how did you know?

Are you Korean hiding away from us in your avatar?

I don''t wear the rings like that. I put the shared-prong and other channel-set on RH.

Still waiting to find a deal on the Swing - Guys there''s one on Ebay for 2,450 - size 5.5. Still to high for me!

Love Street, your wedding set is gorgeous!

I love the three stone design with pear shaped side diamonds (one of my favorite combos) and I love your Tiffany shared prong eternity band. I''m hoping to be able to get a Tiffany eternity band someday...it''s on my wish list.

 

[erica k]

i saw that swing band on ebay, too, and thought no thanks! i love having stacking rings, there are so many fun options. wearing the shared prong and channel set as a RH stack sounds exactly right. i am so in love with the classic solitaire and eternity band pairing. it''s just a matter of time before i have one of my own. it''ll either be from Tiffany''s or a vintage cut in a Leon Mege....

and yes, i am indeed korean. so of course the ''k'' stands for ''the'' most common korean last name! i still have my hanbok from my first birthday party. i think i even have the hat! i love the bright colors, but all those layers can be pretty uncomfortable for a small child. i remember hating the starchy stiffness of the fabric.

i can''t stop staring at all of these Tiffany lovelies...sigh.

Lisa,
Someone bought it today. I am so glad, it was so tempting, my size and everything. I hope it went to a Pricescoper!

 

[lisa1.01fvs1]

Ah butterfly you are to quick for me.

I sent you a note saying the exact same thing in the celebration thread.

GMTA!!

 

[eyecandygirl]

Hi everyone! I want to jump in with my two Tiffany Novo bands that my sweetheart has religiously given me every anniversary. One is pink gold and the old yellow gold. They are pictured with my antique engagement ring - art deco, 2.46 mine cut cinnamon coloured diamond surrounded with cabochon rubies - which my sweetie got me from Gray''s Antiques Market in London. I''m due for the last Novo in the set (in platinum!) in November

 

[eyecandygirl]

omg, that''s way way too big a picture - apologies! I''ll scale it smaller next time!

 

[diamondseeker2006]

Love those Novo bands! Your diamond and ruby ring is beautiful, too!
