Very Nice Bling Days

[LLJsmom]

@LaylaR, @JDDN and I finally got it together and made a day of it.
Courtesy of Lang: this first one I Love. So totally not my typical style but I was feelin’ it.

@LaylaR can you add that ridiculous chrysoberyl cat’s eye cab?

Barney’s has an unexpectedly well curated collection.
Rose cuts are the thing these days.

Loving the microwave halos with these stones I can’t identify or pronounce.


Breathtaking French (enamel) drop earrings circa 1860. They can taken apart and worn as simpler drops or studs.


Just liked it.

And...they carry some McTeigue and McClelland...

Darren McClung:
Loved this piece. Sapphire and diamond bracelet by Robert Procop.

One of the most beautiful antique asschers I’ve ever seen. I have a video that will be my gold standard for antique halos from now on. 3 carat H VS


Gumdrop emerald cab, in the most amazing original setting.

Love Lang. So jelly, pieces are beautiful!

Looks like you had a great day - I’d have been like a kid in a sweet shop!

I’ve oggled that yellow asscher on Lang’s site many times. That, the 3 carat asscher and the Lang’s red/green chain would be my favourites I think!

What fun!! So gorgeous!!!

 

[MissGotRocks]

Lots of fun and lots of bling - thanks for sharing!!

Looks like so much fun, and three of my fav PSers, too!

Langs is like a PS candy store! Time for a field trip again!

Lots of gorgeous pieces! I bet you all had such a fun time. I would love to visit Lang's, I drool over their pieces every time I visit their website.

Yup. as soon as my mom is status quo health-wise again, I'm flying up to SF for the day solely to visit to Lang (okay, I may also fit in a quick visit with my sis and adorable nephew)...

Thank you so much for these photos ... I love these kinds of threads, and this one in particular has so many that appeal to me ... love love love!

 

[leukolenos]

Wow! Sounds like so much fun.

And Lang’s....man they are dangerous. The best kind of dangerous of course! They are always my reference point. I love browsing their site and even their archives. Such gorgeous inspiration!

I was quite surprised by that yellow asscher. I didn’t love it at first sight. I had to concentrate and focus on the stone to see the steps. But when I did, I could tell it was really well cut. Really nice and even and discernible. Although I do prefer the H VS at Darren McClung’s.

Yeah you need to plan on spending 2-3 hours to even notice a fraction of the stuff they have. What’s cool is that almost all their pieces are in their original settings, whenever possible. They produce new settings only when the original ones are not usable. There is just SO MUCH STUFF. Major sensory overload.

Gorgeous! Great company and beautiful bling, the perfect day! Thanks for sharing these pics LLJsmom!

Wow looks like so much fun and all the pieces are incredible!!! That antique asscher is TDF

Any stats on that droolworthy honkin' OEC in the case? I would've wanted to play with that bauble and never ever give her back!!

6.78 carat L, VS2. It was pretty amazing.

Yes I love that antique asscher too. It’s my new standard.

 

[LaylaR]

I had so much FUN! But then, we always have fun together. I still want those earrings. 20k though!

 

[luv2sparkle]

@LLJsmom, @JDDN,@LaylaR, that opal pendant necklace is calling my name! Can you tell me anything about it?

 

[sarahb]

What fun to hang out PS'ers at a cool jewelry shop, thanks for sharing the photos!!

This had to be the most perfect bling day ever... glad to hear you all enjoyed it and what fantastic pieces!
