Lol! That's what's happening to me now. The PS effect indeed! Thanks for the kind words. I've got quite a few pieces that I would love to make sets out of. For example, finding a nice moonstone ring for the moonstone bracelet. Then I usually end up purchasing something completely different instead. So I've got a long list of needed set pieces. And now that Iam seeing all of these pinks, I am falling in love with them. Sigh...it's a whole new frontier. You have a gorgeous collection which is very inspiring!Laughing...hard to believe your amazing collection is lacking anything...so many fun an beautiful pieces. i especially love the jade bangle because I've long wanted one. I didn't own a single pink stone until I joined PS -- didn't even think it was a color I liked for jewelry. Now I owe many due to the PS effect...but none as fins as LisaRN's
Chrono - so glad you played! I've never seen that ring posted before...is there a thread on it? I love love the setting. Did you design it...those FCDs must look even more amazing as the light hits it.
Thank you! I became jade obsessed for a few years and collected bangles mostly. I love your spees ring! I've always wanted one. Seeing yours has reignited my longing for finding one. It looks amazing on you! I love the size, LOVE the yellow gold setting.I'm loving all the drool worthy gems in this thread! But I have to admit that I nearly fell out of my chair when I saw Bluegemz jadeite bangle.
I wore my spessartite ring today. It was made to wear with my everyday wedding band. The spessartite is from Gemfix. Please excuse the crappy BlackBerry photos. It's hard to get a good representation of what I see.
Thank you! I love pink and orange together for just that reason. I call this bracelet the 'sunset' bracelet.luegemz - You have a gorgeous collection. I LOVE the spessartite necklace . I also love pink and orange together. Those two colours just scream summer.
Thank you!Gorgeous spessies Poodles4me and Bluegemz! They look fantastic in your photos but I know they look even better in real life. That spessie and pink spinel bracelet is amazing as well as that large lovely spessie ring. One day I want to set my spessies and admire that orange sparkle.
Lilmosum and Bluegemz you both have amazing jade and jaidite pieces. I love your nails Lilmosun. I wish I kept up with my nails and hands like you do. Lovely.
It's a dark spinel kind of day.
Dark blue spinel, too dark for almost everyone buy hey the price was good, decent cut and I like the finger coverage and glints of blue that make it look mysterious.
Purplish with a touch of burgundy spinel on the other hand
Awe, thank you! I'm very inspired by everyone's pieces here. It's lovely to share the same passion with others.Thank you, mtsapphirelovingannie
Oh Bluegemz you have such bold yet fun pieces all stunningly put together. That spess and pink spinel is such an inspiration. I look forward to seeing more of your jadeite pieces!
How beautiful! Of course, that baby elephant steals my heart, but seeing the brilliance of the gems against the grey skin of the elephant makes the miracles of nature obvious. Brilliant gems. What treasures!
Wow, I love this jadeite set. The beads are very ethereal! I too adore the subtleties of A grade jadeite colors and textures. It's amazing how many variations there really are and what a complex gem it really is. Your set is dreamy, like mist, clouds and damp sky together. They are very moist, like clouds full of rain. When I see it, I imagine day dreaming in mist. Gorgeous!I bought a new jadeite bead necklace today which I wore together with my white jadeite and diamond studs and a jadeite bead bracelet.
The colour is hard to capture, a moody stormy light greyish blue with a tinge of green to it. Perfect with today's unseasonal grey skies and drizzle right smack in the hottest and driest month in Yangon!
Love these unconventional jadeite colours in Type A jadeite, especially with a translucent texture.
Thank you! Regarding the grey moonstone, I hadn't thought that I would appreciate grey moonstones either until I found this seller's ring. With the edgy metal around, just seemed right for Winter. Somehow these feel right when I need to get stronger and work harder. These will probably not get worn again until the next cold season though because I don't think they go with the spirit of Spring or Summer. Amazing how psychologically connected jewelry is!Bluegemz - I want to live in your jewellery boxes. Every piece so far is such a statement piece! I'd never have thought grey moonstones could be this attractive!
Yay and aye to more jadeite and nephrite pieces! The array of colors, textures, patterns and shapes, no one could ever have quite enough!
You are so lucky to have those amazing paraibas and that cuprian! I think the ring is so dramatic and lyrical with the movement in it.
Wow, I ADORE your ring! It's a great, large size and such a modern and unusual color combination. Of course, as a pearl lover myself, I'm impressed with those stunning Tahitian keshi pearls! Also great size and luster. Love the totality of the greys and pinks together. What a great combination. Thank you for the kind words.
