Husband went to NYC for business, so I asked him to pick me up something from Tiffany. It’s always been my dream to buy something at the OG store and he did not disappoint! An adorable baby RG DBTY. 00B7C382-1167-46B0-A5E7-EC1A2A2667B7.jpeg

Bracelet twins!

This is one of those most iconic pieces from Tiffany IMO & so effortless to wear. Husband did good!

Ok. On the fence about this band. I like the heft. I love the Carre diamonds. Love me a bezel. Sapphires are too dark but I’m liking how they appear to be black, lol. I did buy it but have a week to return it. It’s preowned so it will need rhodium dip and a bit size up. Chime in! Be honest!

I don't care for it, if I'm honest. Really dark stones and I don't love the workmanship. Only being honest because you asked!

Sorry @nala but the bezels doesn’t look well made. The sapphires are really dark. I know you said you like that they appear black…but this ring in no way compares to the top quality rings you have.

As a chuck-on-and-don’t-worry-while-you’re-wearing-it ring, I actually really like it., but only if the sapphires are truly that dark irl (weird as that sounds!) and if the price is okay for the quality. It’s not fine workmanship as others have said, but the outline shape is pleasing to my eye and I love monochrome.

What do you think of it stacked? I feel like it gives edgy vibes! The juxtaposition of it all 2D9AA520-4E13-49B5-9E8B-1C8158528676.jpeg

I’m not usually a fan of two statement rings stacked together - I prefer a star and a supporting cast - but these two do work, I think. I prefer it by itself though because you see the unusualness more. Is it a keeper?!

Considered for a short while, then bought them all. They are 18K gold, from Italy.
The middle and right ones are springy and malleable.
The circles in the centre one can be squeezed. Such fun! I love the idea of soft,

They are here!
I can’t take a clear picture at the moment, but i love them!
The prongs are wonky but diamonds are secure. The little mine cuts are so white and clear. My jeweler showed them on the microscope.

I am very happy with my new platinum band! The seller said it was .25 ctw but from the photo it looked bigger and am so pleased that it looks that way irl too. The stones are so well cut :)

Gorgeous with your honkin' diamond! It really does look bigger than .25ctw!

I’ve made an unexpected purchase during our holiday. I was looking for a long time for rose gold diamond earrings matching my rose gold key pendant (not Tiffany, just inspired).
As I was browsing the shops this little beauty caught my eye:
756EC7D3-DA6F-48B7-90CB-31245F28E090.jpeg

It’s a cluster style, and has altogether 1 carat. I know, not everyone is a fan of cluster earrings, but I was looking for something affordable and suitable for everyday use. They just fit the bill.

And here a few earshots:

They look beautiful on you! Very transitional style that is unique that you can wear for cocktail hour or grocery shopping~! LOL!

If you are not over the moon, don't keep it. It is lovely and unique and if you don't mind the darker sapphires and it didn't break the bank, then maybe it is a keeper.

So I am finally getting around to posting pics of my recent purchases. The diamond cross has really been quite the happy surprise!! I love how underneath the diamonds it appears to have a black rhodium giving it a little of a Gothic look. The Florentine diamond ring is just beautiful with the floral edges in white gold and the sparkly single cut diamond. Both from Ebay.
The last ring I have yet to receive. It is from an Etsy seller. I just love two tone jewelry! 20230218_120020.jpg 20230218_120524.jpg

I love both - how beautiful! The cross looks amazing on you. I am crushing on the goldwork on the band.

I like the touch of black rhodium.
The ring gives me think of a wave or cloud. It has movement!

Having made my way through the most hideous surgery I've every experienced, I'm celebrating by setting my gorgeous peridot. She's the biggest, most beautiful one in the photo below. I vaguely recall her being something like 8.6mm and she's going into a platinum setting surrounded either by 12 pt or 20pt diamonds. I have both, and I'd prefer to use the 20 pt stones, but we'll have to work out if they fit, otherwise it will be the 12pt diamonds. So the diamond cluster will be somewhere between 1.2ctw and 2ctw.

My birthstone! What a lovely shade of green. Cannot wait to see this project!

Also, wishing you a speedy recovery, what a way to celebrate!

Hope you’re much better and wishing you a full recovery soon mrs-b! Your taste in jewelry is exceptional and I’m sure these pieces will be just as beautiful as all your other pieces :)

So glad you are feeling better! What a way to celebrate, @mrs-b.
Peridot feels so right - the colour of fresh leaves and new beginnings.
