There's a good new PS phrase that should get a lot of use!!! A "blingasm"!!!

 

[Efriede]

OMG Those things are unreal!

Graff's advertisements in The Financial Times, Town and Country magazine and other high end publications have been my eye candy for years. But to see a catalogue full of these stunners is just too much to for ones' senses--hehe.

That was absolutely SICK.

Although it does appear they manipulate the pics of their colored stones.

And I think ForteKitty should use her ebay skills to get a rock that looks as big as the one on page 57...her nearly 4 carat isn't big enough.

The emeralds in there are unreal! Loved every page.

I think I may have kissed my computer screen at one point.

I've died and gone to Pear heaven!!!

 

[JaneSmith]

You guys are hilarious.

I'd love to try on some of this stuff. Maybe if I ever get to NYC I'll go try on some truly fab jewelry.

Wow, I doubt most royalty today could afford that kind of jewelry! I imagine a lot of it must go to oil rich countries in the middle east.

I doubt seriously that people like us could ever try on jewels remotely even close to these!

(Y'all don't let Phoenix see that 30 ct. round solitaire or she may get DSS. That woman in the catalog was wearing 5 ct. round studs on each EAR!!!)

 

[marcy]

Wow!

Do you think they do 100 years same as cash?

 

[princessfeedme]

Blingasmic!!!

The feel of this catalogue is definitely targeted towards the oil rich countries. No blondes in sight. Gosh, I call dibs on the EC on page 9

I usually don't like heart shaped stones, but that ring was cool.

 

[Tracis30]

Oh my gosh!!! I cannot believe how gorgeous that 50+ ct heart shaped diamond ring is!!!!!

Our local Perth diamond guy, Jogia, spent some early years working for Graff in central London store (estimating this would be about 40 years ago, he's quite a senior gent these days - and still working every day.).

He doesn't normally talk about his jewellery experiences or other customers! But one day we got talking big diamond earrings, and he mentioned an example from the Graff years... GBP450,000 diamond stud earrings bought for a young Arab daughter...geez maybe it was actually a higher number than that and my brain just checked out lol....anyway he said working with Graff, the big beauties often went to Arab men, who would buy for several wives and all the daughters....
