#JOTW Is there a thread for new Christmas bling here? If not... show ‘em off!

[missy]

WOW!! Everyone got such lovely pieces!! And mad money is THE BEST for treasure hunting!

I bought myself 2 items for Christmas. The first is a set of lovely 1940s 14k WG Buttercup drop earrings, est. 1.3 tcw. I saw and was tempted by a smaller set on JbG for 4x as much, so when I saw these, I JUMPED on them!



The second is a lovely little 18k WG F VS 1.33 tcw bangle for everyday use. It is SOOOO glittery!! I love having it. I picked up the 6 stone ring in this image about 8 months ago, it's also from the '40s, and I got it for a song. G/H VS 6 x .17 = 1.02. I love vintage pieces so much, I love their character.

Love everything but those buttercup drop earrings ooooh so lovely. And they go amazingly well with the smaller set.

@vintageloves Where is that from? I love it!

It's from wayfair. It's pretty large, but I couldn't resist it's turquoise charm.

My husband announced on the Friday before Christmas that he was taking me on a date to a town an hour+ away for dinner. And because they have a big pawn shop there that we don’t get to much (because it’s an hour+ away). This ring was there, and he readily agreed to let me get it for Christmas (and I’m stretching out our fifth wedding anniversary).

I put up a thread. https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/new-deco-oec-ring.245758/

In a couple days, I’ll receive my new phone macro lens. I’ll be looking nonstop thru that lens at this ring! Undoubtedly I’ll update my thread with more pics.

Oh, and he also got me an ultrasonic. Bling heaven!!

Thanks @missy! I really like the graduated look as well. The small earrings are .26 tcw. I have a .56 tcw and they don't work as well IMO, I think they are too big for the top space. But sometimes, I wear those two together and they look fabulous too.

My replacement box is here! I may have hinted lightly at this (by loading it onto my his computer and saying "order this one") but I think my husband did a great job!

I love this! What s great colour and size! I am still waiting on my own box to come to me lol.

My boyfriend of 5 years thinks that jewelry, gemstones, and diamonds are a waste of money and resources so I have been making my own purchases. However, when he asked me what I wanted for Christmas I sent two links to jewelry with no alternate ideas! He picked my favorite one and it has been on my secret wish list for over a year! Demantoid garnet ring from Yvonne Raley in rose gold! I love it!!! Sorry for the crummy photos. Been busy with work and not much time to do a decent photo shoot!

LOVE THIS RING!!!!!

New wedding band from Blue Nile (micropave wedding band had loose diamonds)... 1ct total full eternity. Sorry... not a very good pic. It’s very pretty and sparkly in real life

I got a 1 ct. white princess from Lightbox and had it reset in a plain "kite" 14K white gold setting. I'm pretty happy with it. It's whiter than my GIA "G" stone, and a VS1 (only slightly inclusion under loop).

Technically I was a good girl and resisted the Blue Nile Black Friday sales, and decided I’d rather have a new purse and some more practical things for Christmas. Then Blue Nile had this yellow sapphire band on sale for over half off, so I couldn’t resist because I’ve been wanting to start a right hand stack. I’m still debating if I want to exchange it for a smaller size to fit my ring finger better or if I should leave it with room for stacking and just let it add a little sparkle to my bird for now.
