Diamonds and pearls

[Camellia]

I am totally addicted to diamonds and South Sea pearls. Does anyone else share this addiction?

Those earrings are lovely.

HI:

Totally. I have some golden/SS pearls--stud earrings and custom made pendant, and some peacock colored studs (all sizes between 10-11mm).
I do like the drops you posted--classic elegance.

cheers

Oh yes. I would guess there are only about 30 days a year I do not wear them. Earrings are all I have (wah!!!), and they are drops on a simple hook. I adore them.

Does anyone have any pictures of their jewellery? I love looking at beautiful pearls and I love the variety of designs they lend themselves to - both classic and contemporary, casual and formal. I also like the individuality of pearls - no 2 pearls are exactly the same and you can choose the shape and colour according to your mood or personality. Then add some sparkle with diamonds - and wow!

I have a pendant in this design, except it's set in white gold and I wear it on an omega. In the next couple of months I'm getting the matching earrings. But the pearl in my pendant is a lighter grey sort of colour. Not sure how to describe it precisely!

Hi,

I also have a soft spot for pearls- can't believe there have not been any other posts. I'm trying to send a picture for the first time of my pearl/sapphire/diamond choker. I had to really compress the picture to get it to send and lost the bottom of the strand cutting off some of the sapphire accents. If this picture does not work I'll try again

I actually have several more pieces to show if I can get this picture posting down.

I like your strand of pearls. How long are they and do the sapphires accents continue the same way along the bottom? I've found a site that has some lovely designs - well worth looking at.

Camellia,

It's about 14 inches so its considered a choker- and there are a total of 3 white gold spacers set with mixed cut sapphires. I included another necklace this one with rubies and pearls with a fancy crown clasp

That's really pretty. Is it antique or estate? I love the variety of jewellery that can be created with pearls. As much as I love looking at the diamond rings on pricescope, I just love looking at jewellery and the more variety the better. I can't get enough. It seems to me that most jewellery available today is pretty much the same designs just from different retailers, so I'm really keen to see "different" designs.
Thanks for sharing.

I'm unsure on the age I haven't had them looked at by anyone- they have a pretty pink rose body color to go with the rubies that does not show in the pictures. I too am drawn to pieces that are unusual and different. I have a few more to show you and will do as I can. It takes me a long time to download pictures as I have a dial up connection. I did list an opal ring under colored stones, that I was hoping to get some answers on it's unique also you might like it too.

I replied to your post about your opal ring - lovely - and so are your pearls. The earrings in the first pic are so elegant. I'm looking forward to more pics.
