Show me your statement earrings

@bling_dream19, your earrings are so beautiful, I like both styles. I have a pair of similar in-out hoops, I do feel extravagant like you (smile smile smile)

P.S. don’t know why my smileys don’t work!!!
 
Statement earrings, you say? I'll play!

1) 4.6ctw F VS1-2/SI1. All ideal cut. 2 x .95 centers - one BN Astor and one GOG Ascendancy. Side stones, 18 x .15ct. Set in platinum by DKJ. I have big lobes - these earrings are considerably larger than they look on my ears.

2) Roughly 4.6ctw again (too late here to be adding up all the individual values, but it's within a point or two either way as I recall). All stones except for the round melee are individually GIA certified. 2.75" in 18kt. All stones are D-F colored VS/SI. Setting by DKJ.

3) 2 x K VS1/2 .97ct centers. One x True Hearts by JA, one by BGD Signature. 18kt settings on the diamonds done by BGD, 11.5mm golden SS pearls added by DKJ.

4) 14.3mm AAA South Sea pearls by Pearl Paradise, set with BGD signature melee (6 x 17 points = 1.02ctw - D/E color, VS). DKJ later changed the original fitting from a shepherd's hook to a stud and added the pears for me - 32 points each, D color, IF. So - 1.66 ctw. Set in platinum.

The platinum clusters and the yellow gold diamond and golden SS pearl pairs I'll wear casually, tho not just at home. But if I'm going to any sort of appt, out to lunch, or even just shopping, I'll wear these on occasion. But the long drops and the white SS pearls and diamonds are reserved for dinners, shows, ballet, galleries etcetc.

All of them are elegant and as good as I can make them, so there's a level of satisfaction in wearing things - not just beautiful - but beautiful quality also. And they were made for me - so they really fit my ears and flatter my face. Consequently when I put them on, I know I'm wearing something that truly looks good on me, specifically, so that imbues a level of confidence.

And they're all super blingy, and that's just plain fun. :bigsmile:

What a collection @mrs-b :kiss2::kiss2::kiss2:. Yes, so true about the custom made pieces. What can be better than made-for-you?
 
Here are my most statement earrings, a gift from my DH 6 years ago for a special occasion:

LOVE these... they are unique and so fun!
 
Earrings - my favorite accessories!
i get attentions with these :

* 4.40ct in-out hoops D/E VVS/VS
*1.70ct each, main stones G/SI, melees are probably 1 or 2 pointers.9930A63F-C7BB-4E76-8F19-A781B75BF2D5.jpegAD9AEE43-6C46-4B44-9864-2C97DC111345.jpeg48A0C37B-D5A3-4F62-B67F-B135A620C5A4.png
 
@lucida818 Your earrings are gorgeous! Do you have more photos of the chandelier earrings? Are they heavy?

Thank you @MRBXXXFVVS1
They are not exactly light by weight but strangely I don’t feel its weight when wearing, probably due to theIr relatively big backings?
FYI I hv small & thin lobes hence can’t usually handle heavy earrings. In comparison, the 2nd pair (lever back) feels the heaviest among above 3.
These additional photos aren’t great but they do look white IRL.

I adore your earrings but have a weakness for your pearl+diamond ones. :kiss2: :kiss2:
 
Ok so my favorite statement earrings aren’t even mine. Oh but they should be. :kiss2:

And one more pair. A statement to be sure. ❤️

You really need to add these to your collection @missy !! Also is that a bonus shot of Grace in the background wearing The Olsens?

Yes it is! If only Grace would adopt me ❤️
 
Thank you, @mommylawyer ! They are from Bulgari. I love how the stones on each earring don't exactly match the other earring. My daughters like to argue about which one is "theirs", so funny. I guess I could make them into 2 pendants for each of them one day!

Fabulous50
Love your unique earrings ! My daughters too ages 13 & 16 are arguing all the time about my jewelry .
 
Gorgeous on you ❤❤❤

Thank you Missy! I have you, the Marvelous MIssy and the lovely @jeweln to thank you for having these beautiful cluster earrings! I bought them with the intention of wearing them on my wedding day, but my mom got the honor and I wore them my whole honeymoon in Key Largo :kiss2:
 
I forgot about these as I don't wear them often as they are clips and hurt my ears if I wear them for too long.

They are my mum's wedding earrings, the only occasion when she wore earrings as she does not have her ears pierced.

To me they are very pretty, and hugely sentimental.

I absolutely love the long pair. I saw them when you first had them done. I have some loose Pearls and emerald cuts would love a pair ...

Sorry pears not Pearl's. I have 18 holes on each ear and think something like this would enhance the look.
