Another rainy day and set to be so till October.

Keeping the colours light and fun with dangling pink spinel, blue topaz and purple garnet dangles on the ears. Paired with a darker salmon pink tourmaline and light blue sapphire on the fingers.

It may distract the dentist too

That's sheer loveliness.

Love it and I feel your pain. I HATE the dentist! PS I might be forgetting something obvious, but what is LOR? I know about lord of gem rings (LOGR), but want to make sure I know who made such a lovely ring!

I thought my pic uploaded for my last post (June 26). So trying again.

Ilovegemstones the spinners look lovely, I've seen some with bearings but they are very expensive (okay, it was a knife edge with 2 rows of diamonds!) Are they wide? Your fingers look so slender and can carry that look as mine cannot. Do you mind my asking where you had the snake band?

Good catch! I meant LOGR.

I have always admired this East/West ring you have! So classic but with a twist.

Me too! I just LOVE this ring, @ilovegemstones!

Thanks guys! The spinel ring was a great DB find. I actually traded a a star sapphire ring for it and it was fun!

Downtothewiredesigns on Etsy makes the snake ring!

Wow! What was the star sapphire ring like?

 

[Burmesedaze]

Tourmaline cab in an 18k wg setting. I love the harmonious transition of the swirls from shank to halo. Awesome finger coverage without being too ornate.

Siberian nephrite jade bangle, and green, cat’s eye/chatoyant Siberian nephrite jade necklace today. I found the necklace at a jewelry store last Summer, but this is the first time that I’ve worn it. It makes a good 50’s look with a Summer dress. It’s hard to capture the beads somehow.

Oooohhh I thought that necklace looked new before I read the rest of your post.

Close ups, pls? I'm curious about green nephrite.

Grease the musical came to mind somehow

This was the star sapphire. It had a great star but I had another that was the same colour.

 

[Bluegemz]

I it’s not really new, but sometimes it takes me a while to wear some things. The beads have a light, frothy look. Most have chatoyancy, but usually on one side of the bead, so they kind of alternate between reflective and light, and then darker shadow depending on which side is up.
I have always been a fan of the chatoyancy of some nephrite. When I saw these at a childhood jewelry store, I just wanted them.

Ooh, that is a beautiful star! You have such a wonderful collection of them. Each one is totally unique!

Thank you for the close ups

I took some time to take a good look. You are right. The chatoyancy is something that renders the jade more 3D and multidimensional. I like the contrast in the strands. I know it's not identical. This necklace reminds me of your cluster ring. You know which

I've not seen that in jadeite iirc.

It does kind of go with the cluster ring, but that is more of a yellow green and this less so. I enjoy the soothing weight, and of course, I love all chatoyant and phenominonal gems.

That color is dreamy!
