Re: Catch all thread - talk or better yet show us

I also just bought this dragonfly necklace



so I can put my 51 point yellowish brown diamond in it for my mom. Her 50th birthday is next February and we're going to Disneyland :lol:

It will fit right between the wings. The dragonfly bracelet will eventually go to my mom so it will sort of be a "set"

Re: Catch all thread - talk or better yet show us

Wow, radioactive chrysoberyl there! :love:

What a beautiful necklace, and such a thoughtful child you are to your mom!
 
Re: Catch all thread - talk or better yet show us

Wow, Davi, may I ask where you got the "crazy colored chrysoberyl cushion?" It is awesome!
 
Re: Catch all thread - talk or better yet show us

Good job, Davi! :appl: :appl: :appl:

I agree - great job and a big "yes" on the pendant for your mom.
 
Re: Catch all thread - talk or better yet show us

Thanks everyone! I'm super nervous, but its starting to get exciting! Eek!

Now I just have to figure out a push present... :cheeky:
 
Re: Catch all thread - talk or better yet show us

oh wow!!! those are lovely!! I love love colored stones, and those make my mouth water.... :cheeky:
 
Re: Catch all thread - talk or better yet show us

I have this on the way from Barry. Man, I'm so behind on settings...

I think this will be my 4th "imperial" malai garnet.. I have a small garnet addiction.

Re: Catch all thread - talk or better yet show us

Makingthegrade congrats! The Malaya garnet is beautiful. I was a tad bit late, got distracted by a phone call and missed it. :blackeye:
 
Re: Catch all thread - talk or better yet show us

I think barry is expecting more of this rough so you might still get one!
 
Re: Catch all thread - talk or better yet show us

MTG ~

That is beautiful. Whatever will you do with it? :cheeky:

I have these on the way from Barry. I am hoping the blue-green will fit nicely between those purple sapphires from Gary.

I have no idea about the spinel. I don't have any but I hear they too are addictive. This sweet little cushion reminds me of my daughter, who is loves purple (at the ripe ol' age of 19 months!)

Re: Catch all thread - talk or better yet show us

Fae is that cushion from lasts night's drop? If so... LUCKY I thought about it really hard, If I wasn't on a buying ban, I would have snapped it up. Congrats
 
Re: Catch all thread - talk or better yet show us

Yep, Davi, it is indeed from last night.
I couldn't resist, and I was certainly not looking for a purple spinel. I find Barry's gems, in particular, have a way of making resistance futile.

Awww man! You got that blue one! He told me that I got it (confirming email from the man himself). I did a great big happy dance, then got an email from him about an hour later saying I didn't get it. Then I did the sad dance. :-(

I'm sorry :eek: I think his Product Cart system cannot keep up with swift PSers. I know he has tried to update it but there just isn't anything better available.

Oh believe me, I'll probably innundate y'all with pictures! I just hope it fits my setting (well, maybe I don't hope - save myself some dough)
 
Re: Catch all thread - talk or better yet show us

Oooo...I'm glad to see some of the prettier stones from Barry's drop posted! Can't wait to see real life photos!
 
Re: Catch all thread - talk or better yet show us

Congrats, Freke. Hope everything goes well for you.

I picked up this ring from my jeweler recently. It is a custom piece with a grey peacock Tahitian pearl set in a sterling silver lotus style ring with two Barry Bridgestock green zircons bezel set as side stones. I'm very pleased.

(Yes, I'm wearing an orange t- shirt today. Sorry about that.)

There is a before picture of the pearl and zircons on page one of this thread. [URL='https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/what-are-you-working-on-what-are-your-plans.157823/']https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/what-are-you-working-on-what-are-your-plans.157823/[/URL]

That is a really cool ring! I love the custom lotus design. I have been considering getting a similar pearl for my mom and you just absolutely sold me.

Enjoy! Oh, and the orange t-shirt reflection made me smile.

Re: Catch all thread - talk or better yet show us

I just wanted to alert you to an amazing (older) book called The Rediscovery of Color by Heinrich O Proskauer. Its subtitle, Goethe versus Newton may be off-putting, but don't let it, it's fascinating. It comes with a prism and a small folder of black and white and coloured plates that enables you to conduct the experiments. If colour interests you, I think you'll really enjoy this. I just checked Amazon to see if it's available still, it is - used copies and quite pricey but I recommend it.
 
Re: Catch all thread - talk or better yet show us

Fly Girl, what a beautiful ring - I love your collection. It would be fun sometimes to see a thread of your collection, to see all the beautiful pieces in one place (just dreaming here :bigsmile: ).
 
Re: Catch all thread - talk or better yet show us

Pretty fly girl


I actually have a lovely, delicate pink orange spinel I've been meaning to photograph and share, just haven't gotten around to it..
 
Re: Catch all thread - talk or better yet show us

Flygirl, great job! You matched the peacock quality of the pearl perfectly with the green of the zircons - if you EVER get tired of that ring, I will buy it from you, it is so lovely :appl: :appl: :appl: Really, really lovely! More pics, please, perhaps its own thread? :bigsmile:

Thank you so much faegrace, mariedtiger, MTG and minousbijoux. You are so kind. I have some more pictures of this ring project, and a couple of other pearly projects in my "Playing with Pearls" thread over in the Pearls Forum.

I'm hoping by showing off my humble efforts that others with be inspired to try their hand at some simple projects. :))
