Your Latest Jewelry Purchases/Things You're Considering....

My little ouroboros came today. I'm so happy with her. She is adorable and made by Aegis Fine Jewellery (out of Athens Greece) in 14k. You can feel her skin, it's so cool! The detail that my cheap phone ignores is amazing.
So cute.

So I recycled a setting and set my new 1.05 octagon diamond in it! It’s not perfect, but I love!

Yes! That one! Thank you! Bezel is a bit wonky bc I didn’t go with my regular bench bc he is still shut down. But I can live with it
 
@nala, wow what a difference a setting makes, can't get over that transformation.

My ring .85 center OEC K color SI clarity and 20 single cuts in platinum setting. Just over one carat all together.

Can you share her origin story? As in when and where you fell in love? Lol
 
@nala, a true lady doesn't kiss and tell!

@Niffler75, ah that's kind of how it went too! Oops, did I just buy that?! Guess I'll just have to wear it now :lol:

I actually gasped, they are lovely and the double buttercup is to die for.
 
I keep looking at these, but they are more than I want to spend. But antique dormeuse earrings are not the easiest to find. I even looked on eBay. Not many. This pair is really pretty.

I let a pretty nice pair get away last year and have never forgiven myself - those are GORGEOUS!
 
I was considering these several weeks ago and now they are here! Just posted in a necklace thread, but please bear with me as I re-copy it here:

I didn't think I was into charms, until I fell for these vintage 9ct gold ones. I am wearing these as individual pendants for now, but will likely wear them as layered individual pendants or a charm necklace or charm bracelet occasionally. Or perhaps even hang them from french hooks as mismatched earrings. They are small but ridiculously detailed. I'll let the photos do the talking...

I don't think I can ever afford a real Fabergé egg, so I'm overjoyed with this egg charm that opens! There's even a little bird inside!

This hour glass charm has real sand and works!

Just to give you an idea how small they are (and I have fairly small hands with ring finger size 2.75):

Group shot with sentimental hand-me-down pendants from my mother and grandparents, which I have never worn, but may string together as a charm necklace now.

Those are adorable!
 
Thanks @junebug17 I will for sure, it will be a while though since I have to have it resized.

Funny thing I actually listed it a month ago on a thread in vintage/antique but a month later nobody had bought it, meant to be I guess!

Those are incredible. Did they source the stones or did you have them?

I want a pair desperately. If you don't mine me asking will you share the stats on the stone sizes?

In an attempt to find OMCs for eventual earrings I bought this ring, even if I never make earrings I love how delicate and swoopy it is.

It helped ease the pain of missing the Peruzzi cut band.

So you’re the lucky duck who scooped that up! Please share more pics when you get it.

Oh.
Oh my goodness.
I am... Breathless.
Those are BEAUTIFUL. Brisk dewdrops on a sunny morning.
The YG complements the stones so perfectly, and those double buttercups... There aren't enough words.
Please post some on-ear pics!!
:love:
 
@CSpan , I love that ring! I would have a hard time pulling that apart.
