Your Latest Jewelry Purchases/Things You're Considering....

I really want to try the olive branch climber earrings on at Tiffany. I will hold off until after the holidays and let my bling fund recover because I’m pretty sure they will come home with me!!!

 

[ZestfullyBling]

That is one impressive ring congratulations

Thank you @diamonddiva22 !!!

Bought these as a present to myself, just like all the other bling purchases, with no particular reasons!

They are the right shape being ovals rather than rounds, with an inner length of 12mm which is about right for my big fat earlobes; and the price is right!

Should get them early next week with express shipping at no cost to me, thanks to my usual contact in China.

In addition to the earring, after reading Jeff White's latest Gem Scoop maildrop, I have asked him to secure a blue green Afghani Tourmaline about 3 to 5ct mostly likely to be an oval shaped stone, and a purple pink Pastel Pyrobe Garnet roughs for a finished stone about 2ct/7mm for me for cutting at a later date.

I already have a Tsavorite garnet waiting to be cut by him, so these two are new stones.

I just bought this 5.4ct Purple sapphire ring by Leon Mege.
I’ll go out on a limb and say I spoiled myself this Christmas.

Oooh @elle_71125 that is beautiful. Are the side diamonds crisscuts? They look like something special but it just a little difficult to tell from the angles on the photos.

A pawn shop, vintage seller find for me. A 14 carat OMC bypass, swirl motif ring. it’s old, all the diamonds are OMC cut and it has French hall marks…

Thank you. The sides are “Elongated True Antique™ cushion diamonds” (info pulled from LM’s website).

Thats a great color on that sapphire. Congratulations. Looks great on your skin tone.

Thank you. I love jewel tones on my skin (which is probably why I lean towards the brighter, saturated gems). This purple fits right in.

I just ordered a very retro ring when I’m supposed to be saving! Eeek! I can’t wait for it to arrive!! 1.5cts of retro bling!

Hi! It’s a half eternity. I had a full eternity with rounds that I sold because it bothered my fingers. This one is super comfortable and hardly rotates to the sides.

Thank you! This was originally about 8 ctw (at 7” length) and I got it shortened to 6.1”, hence it’s around 20 points each 35 diamonds approx 7 ctw. Hope you get your ideal tennis bracelet soon!

@junebug17 I know right?! I love retro, it’s my thing and this is being sized for my index finger! Woop! I actually got the diamond weight wrong, apparently it’s 1.75ct, I can’t wait to get it!

I hardly ever think to check this thread...but WOW!!!! How magnificent is that?!!!

Love the VCA and your tennis bracelet! I love the 20 pointers! Did you get it from a local jeweler or a PS jeweler?

 

[maisie2]

My latest purchase is a .45ct E VS1 EX/EX/EX diamond for a 14K YG pendant. I attached a photo of the diamond itself and of the type of pendant (martini) it will be set into.
I’ve been dying for a pendant, so I’m very anxious for mine to be done and here!

My next purchase will be a five stone trellis setting for some diamonds I have laying around. After that, I’m considering the Cartier Love Ring, but I’m not sure if it’s worth the price tag. I do think it would pair well with my ring though…

Thank you @diamondseeker2006! I was initially looking at WF (love their melees! I have a 7-stone band from them), but I was quite concerned about the length as my wrist is rather small and wasn’t comfortable shortening the bracelet based on a certain length without seeing how it looks on me. Since I do not live in the US, I ended up getting it from a local jeweller, this was a delightful find as it holds up well beside my WF band!

How wonderful! I totally understand about the length issue! I am looking at WF since I do live in the US, and I really think yours is the perfect size for me! It certainly looks like wonderful quality, too!
