Oh, and because Thing2 had been requesting a pic of my dead fish necklace (it''s pewter), here it is. Along with the blue topaz eternity and my Love Bunny necklace (which was my Christmas present to myself). Oh, and my ering and the blue topaz eternity band.

 

[FrekeChild]

And because I took a few too many pictures today, here is the ering and blue topaz band from the top.

Freke! Love your collection. Your love bunny necklace turned out great! Do you love it? I bought that little lotus necklace, and let me tell you I am OBSESSED! Yay for Christmas presents to ourselves

Musey I love the engraved Claddagh band. I have never seen one like that!

Irish I love your yellow gold pieces!

I think more people need to post their collections! I may post mine...nothing exciting but some cool old stuff that I inherited.

I was never a jewelry person before I got engaged, so here''s my very small collection since my e-ring. I''m working on expanding the collection of course and one day hope to have amazing pieces like you ladies

This is a fun thread! Gave me a reason to do a photoshoot! haha. For fun, I used this cute piggy stuffed toy I have as the "model".

Here''s part of my collection. I bought this years ago so I can''t really remember the exact specs...

from left ear to right ear:

-Blue sapphire set (earring, ring & pendant)
-Mikimoto light peach/pink lustre pearl center surrounded by diamonds (earring, ring & pendant)
-Rosette diamond set (earring, ring, pendant & bangle) <-- this was a gift by my mom given to me on my 18th bday
-Citrine set (earring, ring & pendant)

on nose from left to right:

-Diamond set (earring & ring. When I have the extra $, I plan to have a custom made matching necklace)
-Emerald center with diamonds in yellow gold (earring & ring. Hopefully soon I can find a matching pendant)

that''s it for now folks!

Thanks

(Sorry about the tiny snail in that last one . . . it''s just that it''s the clearest handshot that I''ve been able to get! LOL!)

IG, the details on your set are stunning!!! Yellow and rose gold have a warmth and richness that white metals don''t have.

 

[steph72276]

Wow, so many beautiful pieces added to this thread over the weekend. Love it all!

Thank you, PR! I can only wear yellow gold because I have a nickel allergy and white gold REALLY gives me a rash. But, fortunately, yellow gold tends to look better with my skin tone anyway! I don''t have any rose gold, but I think it''s absolutely BEAUTIFUL (which is saying a lot, because I''m usually not a big fan of the color pink) and I''d love to own some rose gold pieces someday!

I thought I''d ressurect this thread with some pics of my collection... I just cleaned a whole heap of my pieces and was too ashamed to post them up until now, some of them were filthy!!

TELL US ABOUT THE HEAVY LINK STERLING & LOCK BRACELET!Close up please...we need to see if its from the 1880s or the 1940s!

 

[Dandi]

This pic is a bit blurry but I thought it was purdy

These are the pieces that I tend to wear the most as daily type stuff.. I always wear the three rings on my ring finger and my diamond studs; one of the pendants and one of the RHRs shown here.

Thanks for letting me share! That was fun

 

[Dandi]

Hi jewelerman!

Do you mean the curb bracelet with the heart padlock? It''s 9ct yellow gold with an engraved padlock, and I had it made specifically for me because I wanted a particular length. I think I''ve had it for about 7 years now? Nothing too exciting

But I love it!

 

[Dandi]

Excuse the lighting, it doesn''t look very gold in the pictures!

A closeup of the padlock:

shown many different gems many considered very rare & worn daily....
