WHYYYYY--a thread

[lovedogs]

I've wanted to make this thread for a while, but wanted to figure out how to word it to avoid any "call outs" or insults.

Rules to keep this from getting mean or catty:

1. No calling out specific vendors

2. No insulting other posters' pieces


Without further ado, I present the....

WHYYYYY thread

Post pieces that make you say WHYYYY.

I hope this thread will provide some levity during a stressful time for many folks. Also, if anyone likes weird pieces, this might be a great thread for you to find something unique.

Nobody can beat my antique pear. I have no idea why would anyone do this. The great part is that there's a lot of 18k gold there. The seller also included a lot of pamphlets about praying for my sins.
I have an idea of what I'd like to be, although I'm not sure how easy it would be to find the halo stones.

That's a seamless restoration! Like fillin' a pothole.

Robot face ring with unicorn shoulder (the other shoulder looks like a saint…?)

"SUPERB"! Not to be confused with those lesser-quality robot-face wannabe rings littering eBay.

Good idea in theory, problematic in execution. The eye size and eyeball placement is just upsetting.

Where’s THE beast??

 

[LilAlex]

OK, well some of these I don't totally hate but "Why?!" does come to mind












And then there's this one that my wife got as kind of a teaching tool but I hardly even need it now.

This is mine. Why I bought it, moment of madness. I love the look but it is 100% unwearable. It weighs half a ton and how can you use your hand with this on top.

That's Lalique though, or is it Baccarat?

Me too! And now I can't un-see it

I vaguely remember a thread about "ugly" jewellery in PS in the past, and there were some exceptional pieces!

However, it might have upset some people as I have not seen it for some time!

Are those diamonds that somehow just got ground down flat?

Reminds me of a child's drawing.
