I got these OEC platinum earrings for Christmas set with 4 carats of G-I si clarity old cuts. I bought this Van Cleef and Arpels small perlee ring in rose gold as a simple ring to wear on a recent beach holiday.

Thanks @tyty333 there are somewhat rubbish ear shots on this thread https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/share-your-christmas-bling.236348/ taken at night, under yellow-ish lights so the diamonds don’t look as pretty as they are in real life. I did have an issue with one of the stones, as the earrings were sold to me with a chip in one of the diamonds. The earrings had to be returned to the store and the offending stone was re-polished. Always double check your antique purchases ladies!

Like @Niel I’m not sure of my last bling purchase. All I know it’s been too long. But nothing has called my name since my last purchase which I just remembered are these earrings. I bought them pre loved from forte kitty around December 2017 I think. I love them.

Missy, LOVE these earrings!! :love::love::love: My next bling purchase won't be for a while, but I would love to own something similar someday!

Thank you.
I’m almost embarrassed to say, no, these are my Statement Necklaces.
They are old style Rose / single cut diamonds in silver and gold. The green centre stones are synthetic (I just loved their colour) they actual “screw out” (but I don’t have any extra gems to swap with). The pearls are real, don’t know what type though. :roll 9328FBB3-D109-4CF9-9CA4-CCA6AA305F0B.jpeg 6A67AFFA-41C2-4F0B-951F-535900DA40F1.jpeg

MOD SHOTS please there are gorgeous!!

Just got this set and love it! 9349AC9D-CE81-4E2A-A468-B6CC35889255.jpeg 6510A951-8458-4ECD-9398-9B247586E973.jpeg 55B8F951-7909-4BCE-8CA8-F0792B5CA4AC.jpeg

Nice set. I like the design they look like the design from a company I follow on Instagram, but that company does not sell diamonds on their settings just druzy and other crystals. I love looking at them. Who designed these?

They were custom made by a private jeweler.

They’re inspired by McClelland and McTeigue though which you might like if you like the style.

Have this posted in another thread as well - antique Georgian diamond, about .6 ct old mine cut, taken from a damaged rivière:

Whoa, 10 grams of platinum!!! I haven’t weighed my wedding stack, but I’m guessing around 6 grams (?) I’m a speech pathologist for babies and toddlers. One of my favorite sing-songy books says, “I love hats!” and I always tap my head as I read it. I will sometimes thunk myself if I’m not careful. :lol: I can’t imagine 10 grams!

And as an aside, this is not possibly your first cluster?!

It feels so luxuriously weighty! I think I mean my first invisible set? Cluster. Lol.

I recently had this mounting made for a diamond I inherited, it is round but the halo is cushion shaped

When I saw your photos I thought to myself "The e-ring looks so much like an mc2 ring with their iconic petal shoulders!"

Your jeweler did a marvelous job, your set is absolutely gorgeous!

Holy cannoli! Gorgeous.

Where are you guys finding these gorgeous earrings?

Many different places. My favorite Lambertville estate jewelry shop for one. That is where I have purchased much of my earring collection. Lang Antiques is another. Jewels by Grace has some delicious bling that I could not resist. Instagram now is a great place to see amazbling earrings too. I am only interested in old cut bling so it is easier for me since the list is narrowed considerably when one is just looking for old cut yumminess.

Oh also check out Diamondbistro and Loupetroop and the preloved section on PS. You never know when something just right will come along for you.:appl:

Did you see this yummy earring thread?

Haha ok ok. I wasn’t sure if I could post a thread on Show Me The Ring since the center stone is synthetic (for now! I’m looking for a replacement ;-)
