My aqua is here! I love it! Please excuse the old hand…..The aqua does have tilt windows but surprisingly it doesn’t bother me..The faceting is just so pretty..

MamaBee this is so stunning and just FUN! Love the setting and how it looks on you!

I just purchased this Art Deco Ruby and diamond band. I never bought anything red..The colored gemstone thread has pushed me over to want some color in my bling..

Since I’m leaving on Friday..I didn’t think it would get here in time before I leave… I told him to hold it until I get back from seeing my daughter-in-law and grandsons. I come home on the 27th..I told him to ship it then…I can’t wait to get it. It will be torture to wait..

Oh MamaBee, I’m so behind on your new collections. I love that the last two have been fun color additions! The detail on this is really special. Enjoy the family time! The wait will go by so fast!

 

[valenledge]

@ItsMainelyYou I know you like red and spinel. I think these little guys make a statement.

Should be on my neck soon!

This is truly a work of art! Your and Caysie’s collaboration and time to make it was so worth it! The story behind this is so inspiring. There is such good energy even in the pictures. So excited for you to have this in your life!

 

[MamaBee]

So glad your DIL and son tested negative! And I hear you, getting older involves all sorts of aches and pains these days LOL! Hope your back is feeling better soon.

I think my back is like a person in their nineties!

Thank you @valenledge..I’m really looking forward to seeing my grandchildren and daughter-in law…You’re right..It will go fast!

Thank you so much @RunningwithScissors , @valenledge and @MamaBee ! I’m just thrilled.

I'm waiting on two grey spinel rings from DK, but not in a huge rush. It felt like such a relief to get the CADs over and done with.

But I'm most impatiently waiting on 2 sapphires wending their way from. Sri Lanka. Both were custom cut direct from recently mined rough and I'm obsessed with the journey they took from "lumps" to sparklers.

Lumps middle stone both rows.

Likely huge rambling post ahead. Upon opening my eyes everyday… what will this day bring? How hard will it be? Where will I be? What’s city? What county? What time will I get home? Will I run out of water? What challenges will I face? Will I cry? Will I sweat? Will I bleed? (Likely yes to the...

Hi everyone. I hope it's only another 2 week wait for my "for now" studs coming from James Allen. A pair of warm Ms 1.48 ctw martini yellow gold studs. My order status is still saying "Production" when the estimated shipment is supposed to be 23rd of August. I'm in Sydney Australia and we're in the middle of the harshest Covid lockdown we've ever had, and from what I'm hearing, harsher than anyone in the world. So hopefully it won't be delayed too long.

I really love seeing everyone's precious beautiful sparklies, brings a much needed smile to my day. Thank you all for sharing.

 

[APlaceForEverything]

Thank you @junebug17 and @oncrutchesrightnow - I am blown away by it! Made my day. Husband quite pleased too *with his wife's excellent taste and ability to choose and purchase her own jewellery haha*

Hi from Melbourne! My JA purchases have come fairly quickly but I would suggest you track them carefully as my last package got lost in Honolulu until I called FedEx to ask why it hadn't scanned for a few days. Otherwise smooth delivery so hopefully your sparkles come soon. I

'd love to see them when they arrive; my daughter is working towards getting her ears pieced when she turns 9 and I am tempted to buy her a tiny pair of martinis from JA to mark the occasion (for her to wear only on special occasions too!! These are not schoolwear!!).

May we all be out of lockdown soon.

New to this thread, I ordered my replacement/upgrade e-ring from WF on 8/6 and I'm dying to find out when it will ship! I was doing well trying not to think about it until this week. They quoted me 18 days so it should be any time now!

@bruin224 When you get your gorgeous diamond, please post photos and the stats!

Hi fellow Aussie What crazy days huh, hopefully the end is close.

Earrings have been shipped and I paid the GST and FedEx fee today so hopefully will get them by the end of the week. Will post the pics as soon as they arrive, I sure do miss wearing studs. I did my best to try and get replacement ones in Aus but the prices are CRAZY!

I'm also looking for baby studs or huggies for my bff's daughter, she's turning 6 and have asked for some already when she was 4.

Sorry I missed your reply @CathB . Gosh there are some lucky kids around getting fine jewellery at this age! I’m so tempted to get matching ones (so really this is all about me!).
Happy Friday and hope there’s a package for you today! (And case numbers not in the four digits).

 

[MamaBee]

I just purchased a little necklace from Ivy and Rose…It’s not a big purchase…but I’m looking forward to getting it. I’ve been eyeing it for a while..I don’t like large necklaces on me…so this will fit right in with what I have. It looks bigger in the photo because it’s blown up. It’s probably a barely there necklace which is the kind I love..

Package arrived today. Very happy with the sparkle, just half thinking whether i shouldve gone with the milgrain bezel alrhough I must say the martini setting is very comfy.

I'm very happy with my earrings and bezel pendant from James Allen, they're all M coloured, .75 & .73 (earrings) .70 (pendant), GIA XXX, HCA Excellent, measurements are within AGS Ideal parameters and clear arrows on each. I was worried i would notice a big difference from my ring's sparkle (CBI) but I don't see a huge difference under house lights. I still aim to upgrade to CBIs at some point (when i win lotto) but I'm very happy with these for my daiky wear until then. They're also a huge bargain compared to what i can find here in Sydney. .

Apparently my engagement ring arrived at my boyfriend’s parents house where he had it shipped to keep it from me. He saw it on FaceTime yesterday and said it looks super sparkly - I’m so excited. I’ve literally been looking at the video over and over and am so entranced by the diamond…

This is just lovely! The leaf shapes in particular are fetching.

Superb and thank you for sharing! They look great on you and I think this confirms how much I like three prong martinis. I've recently referred a colleague to JA for a special birthday and the difference in prices has floored her too.
Seeing as lockdown in interminable, I think I see more sparkles on the horizon .... !

 

[APlaceForEverything]

And from me, the last of my pretties has arrived so I’m out of the two week club (for at least a day or two until I rejoin!).

Here are two necklaces; the bar one is an Etsy purchase and I’m quite impressed with the sparkliness (not so visible in this quick picture), and the DBTY is from Capucelli, who I thought I’d take a punt on after seeing a gazillion ads. I understand they’re a wholesale-direct company, and as prices were very reasonable I thought I could test something like this before considering anything bigger. As far as my untrained eye can see, it’s a very nice piece. Service was good too.

 

[oncrutchesrightnow]

Ugh I thought 1 of my 2 orders would be done by now. Oh well it’s just jewelry. :/

 

[icy_jade]

My new jadeite earrings are ready and waiting for me…
