Happy holidays to you? I bought this gorgeous necklace just over a year ago from a well-known PSer over at the Bistro. And as much as I’ve always wanted a DBTY necklace, in practice it just didn’t flatter my rather chunky neck and was spending way too much time snuggled in its downy safe bed/box. My chub could be your gain!

This piece comes with an appraisal from Gemological Appraisers of America for $1800 which describes it as: Diamond Fashion Necklace 0.88 CTW 14k white gold eyeglass bezel. 8 ideal cut round brilliant diamonds. Color G. Clarity SI1/SI2. 18 inches. Conflict free diamonds.

And the original owner’s description is:
This is from a local jeweler. I scrutinized it and I can spot some inclusions in some of the stones from 6' away but let's hope few people will be up close a personal on your neck like that. The cut on the stones is very good, the appraiser calls them "ideal" but I know what ideal looks like and they aren't that. They roll around on the neck a lot (which is why I'm selling) and even the culet side up can throw fire quite like a rose cut. The necklace is in great condition. This has 8 stones which must be about 11 points each..... I roughly measured them and the reading was between 2.5mm and 2.75mm...not that they are different sizes my tool is just not super precise.

As the 2nd owner, the rolling/smudging didn’t bother me a bit but I’m not a loupe gal at all. Condition hasn’t changed, as I found out pretty quickly that my previous daily-wearer (Rose Gold pave starfish) was more flattering on me *particularly*. Hate to part with such a pretty piece but it’s truly a waste to go unworn for this long. Home visit will be required before adoption. Just kidding!

Price: $850

Well, you could require "neck shots" before adoption. :naughty:
 
Thanks Maisie! I've been meaning to list it for months but had never taken pictures etc ... but then I realized - DUH! this is the type of thing folks like to pick out for themselves for Xmas. So I finally got off me duff and did it. :tongue:

HA! Yes. I will be the bling whisperer.

IS THIS RIGHT FOR YOU.
Are you OCD? NO it is not right for you!
Do you have a fat neck? NO, it is not right for you.
Do you have normal sized neck? YES it could be right for you!
Do you have a very skinny neck? NO it is probably too long for you!
Do you only like yellow or rose gold? NO - this is too white for you! And YES you are committing jewelry discrimination!
Do you have a cat who likes to swipe at your necklaces? YES it could be right for you - but the cat's going to have to go.
Have you always wanted two 9" DBTY bracelets? YES + YES!

You are the Stacy London of fine jewelry! Decodelighted - "Bling Whisperer" It's now official, just because I said so. :appl:
 
Thanks Omieluv! I'll takes it. Though in truth there are far better bling whisperers than I around these parts. Maybe I'm a Bling Close Talker.
 
Just wanted to add that an 18" one is nice to have to hang a pendant on, so it can even work for skinny necks in that case! :bigsmile:

See ... plenty of bling whisperers in the wind ... :bigsmile: Thanks DS!
 
I love it Deco, but I did answer "Yes" to question number 2. DOH!!!!!!!!!! Lol
 
Dani - HA! I think if it layed perfectly in one of my newly formed orbiting neck wrinkles, maybe it would look better on me - even with my fat neck! Unfortunately, it hovers just above one of those dastardly creases. Twinkling. Calling attention to it. Sticking it's tongue out at it :tongue:
 
Deco, u crack me up!!! I love necklaces and pendants, but I hate my neck, and I've got some double-chinage goin on these days too:( yuck.
