Just decided to take a picture while stopped at an intersection. My ruby just looked glowy.
 
Trying to bring a little sunshine into the day so I'm wearing my yellow diamonds today.

I finally wore what my daughter calls my "Pocahontas" necklace today.
My mother gave me the pendant and I dont think I've ever worn it longer than a few minutes, but today it got love! :))

Its a native american style pendant with natural turquoise in sterling silver & I pair it with a simple beaded garnet necklace and worn with a larger rough garnet necklace. Theyre both about 17" long. Ignore my dirty sewing basket, it was my grandmothers and is quite old.

It has been quite a while since I wore a ring, as I have been washing/sanitising my hands multiple times daily and do not want to risk damaging my stones.
This is my newly acquired unheated ruby (Mozambique) ring. It is cut very shallow (ie looks bigger than expected but has a big window ). However, I bought it as the price was good and the dark colour kind of masks the window.
It is going into the safe for now and will see daylight again when this pandemic is over.
 
We don't go out these days due to social distancing but last weekend we drove to a far away park where it was just us so I wore my rings.

Because the world needs calm and stoicism, as do I. Been wearing mostly my jadeite jewellery lately.

Presenting my new jello base glowy calming round cut bangle. Type A Burmese jadeite. The very densely packed fine grain gives that glow and good water. It is even throughout. LOVE.

Size 61 without the premium :)

It looks amazing! Curious, where do you buy jade? I've always wanted one but have no experience in buying jade.

Thank you.

Online from my trusted and regular China sources (only a couple) and physically from my Yangon jeweller friends. The latter currently closed owing to government retail lockdown.
 
All turquoise and gold for me today. Persian and sleeping beauty. Turquoise is so grounding and positive/hopeful at the same time.

Beautiful on you!
 
I want to personally tag you all individually and make comments about how beautiful your colored gemstone pieces are but theres too many people and too many pieces!!!

Just know right now seeing all of these beautiful colors is truly helping to reduce some of the anxiety felt about the uncertainty of everything.
I think there might be something to color therapy!!


Today I wore all of these babies & boy do they all just scream joy to me!

My cushion cut cab Gem Silica from my beau in 14k RG, my "Imogen" Tanzanite and diamond ring in 18k YG, and my new girly 14k RG ring with brown diamonds and a pink garnet.

20200327_171415.jpg20200327_171404.jpg

All worn with my teeny tiny fresh water pearl studs and my 4mm diamond studs! I love the understated elegance of these two!

Gem cleansing in a fresh Spring stream in the mountains. Feeling the need to be still, while waiting. The star ruby comes alive in the water and sun, which made me feel inspired.

Today's a multi-ring kind of day, as I can't be an ostrich who's back at work Monday with my head in the sand when the news is mostly bleak.IMG_20200330_100712.jpg
Also, a CRD sunflower pendant: sphene and ruby; looks like my smartphone front camera isn't very good.

Excuse the ratty, comfort wear! Just playing with rings...Vonsen’s blue and champagne diamond snake with tahian pearl and diamond ring, both by Santa Fe sculptor and jeweler Michael Tatom.

Seems like I can only wear my jewelry at home since we have to be gowned up at work. 20200405_131330.jpg20200405_130936.jpg
All from CRD except the dbty bracelet from JuliaB. I love Yvonnes designs and am obsessed with the lily style.
