Show me your favorite five (or more) pieces!

I know this is an older post, but how are you liking your chalcedony? I am mesmerized by the color, and my mind keeps trailing back to it.

I can tend to be hard on jewelry so am nervous about a soft stone. How does this wear? I sometimes sleep in necklaces (I know...), but I know this would be a no-no for moisture

Any other thoughts on it? I would get a single motif, I'm a simple gal!

I still love the stone and love the color. It's as beautiful to me as it was when I fell in love. I always take my bracelet off. I think over time it would get gunk on it if you don't clean it regularly, if you plan to wear it daily. But I don't think you will damage it since it's on your neck. I would recommend taking it off every day, more for cleaning than concern about damage. If you are doing anything aerobic for a long time, I wouldn't wear it. If you're thinking about a pendant, would you consider the magic size? Lots more presence and since it's so neutral, even at the larger size, it won't be visually obtrusive.
 
I'll play -

Currently loving my ideal cut H&A tennis bracelet, ACA platinum studs, my e-ring, my lucky horseshoe talisman ring set with two sweet champagne diamonds and my 18k rose gold Art Nouveau antique French locket + Tiffany rose gold beaded chain

I love your bezel set solitaire, is it a ACA?

oh honestly i may have to try on both sizes. i didn't even think about the magic size... i love the look of a smaller, dainty pendant but i am a very tall person. thanks for the tips on care - im so glad to hear you are still loving it, as i think it's beautiful and compliments you so well
 
So after a little free time, I took a few pics of the jewelry I wear most often. Yes, more than 5. I wear some more often than others. I don't wear the sapphire and diamond lariat as much as I should so I am on the fence about selling it. 20211102_134855.jpg20211102_134424.jpg20211102_134706.jpg20211102_134713.jpg20211102_134927.jpg

You have a bountiful Beautiful collection!!! That bracelet, those pendants...LOVE!!!!!!
