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

I've lost my heart to a vintage bow brooch yesterday...10ct oec pavé....

Unfortunately it's out of my price range and the cost per wear on that stunner isn't great... But my, is it pretty!!

Post a pic @kipari!
 
Unfortunately it's a classic auction in a another country and thus non-returnable... Too much risk for me personally...IMG_20201226_170224.jpg


But oh sooooooo pretty... sigh

Bowalicious ❤️
I’m sorry it can’t be yours.
But you’ll find something even more awesome :appl:
 
The bow brooch is so pretty @kipari! You will find another beautiful one.

My husband gifted me this ruby and diamond band for Christmas. It’s so hard to capture how red the rubies are and the diamonds really sparkle!

@MamaBee this is such an exciting news. I love surprise gifts like this. I can’t wait to see what you decide to do. This is a great way to enter the new year. So full of love and hope. I second the opinion that you should get THE ring that rules all rings.

Thank you @rcjtraveler. I will share details below.

Thanks @Slick1 and thank you for all your support and help. XO.

:appl:Yay!!!!!! I’m sooooooo excited!!!

Aww, same. I am super excited about your upgrade so that makes us both crazy excited for each other's bling. :love:
Thank you for all your blingy support and help too. XO.

Hahaha not yet. I wish. Thank you for sharing in my excitement.
Tuesday is going to be a stressful day so in a way I am not even focusing on Wednesday and the purchase anticipation as much as I wish I could. Rather I just am hoping Tuesday goes as well as it possibly can and then I can enjoy looking forward to the Wednesday delivery. I am really anxious and nervous about Tuesday as we are seeing Greg's surgeon and probably getting the biopsy results as well as the results of the CT scan and a plan for the surgery.

Thank you all for sharing in my blingy excitement and joy. Details are as follows.
These are 4.52 CTW Edwardian Old European Cut Diamond Earrings GIA K VVS2.
They are in their original Edwardian crown motif settings which I am told are gorgeous. I mean they look gorgeous online but I have not yet seen them in real life.

Here is Grace's beautiful description of the earrings.
"Simply one of the most beautiful earrings we have ever had the pleasure of owning of late! The diamonds have generous diameters for their (already) sizable carat weights, making them look much bigger than 4.50ctw. Set in their original Edwardian crown motif settings, the earrings sit fairly low on the finger, preventing that dreaded droop. Killer makes on the stones with very white face ups, made more beautiful by the delicate antique settings."

Here are some photos from Grace's site. Of course when I have them in hand (and on ear lol) I will share my photos.

Their yummy profiles.

And Greg cut these out for me in tin foil to see if there will be lobe around the earrings as I am not a fan of overlap of diamond past the earlobe. This is not an exact evaluation though (obviously lol) so not sure how they will lay on my ears and I am hoping the diamonds have lobe all around them.

Ear selfies are not easy nor flattering :lol: Note to self: next time I do earring selfies don't do it after a two hour aerobic workout before showering lol.

If there is not lobe all around the diamonds (as in diamond overlapping the bottom of my lobes) I might have Grace reset these into a Thelma and Louise setting which some of you might remember are my dream earrings (if their heavy weight and cost was not a factor). If I go this route I might have to make some modifications so the weight is 2 grams or under per earring. But I am getting ahead of myself so will just say it is a possibility I already discussed with Grace. And in the meantime I have never owned OEC studs and Greg loves my MRB studs and I thought let's give this a try as studs and see what I think. Knowing I can always go to the Thelma and Loiuse setting in the future.

Thanks for sharing in my enthusiasm and excitement. ❤️

Veeeeerrrrrry exciting, @missy! I have to know how Greg was able to cut foil so precisely! Was it a hole punch?! :mrgreen2: I’ll be sending prayers and good vibes for Tuesday!

Thank you! BRB I’ll have to ask him. :)
Ok just asked him. He has a template and uses a drill hole guide that allows the diameter to be sized. Should have realized it has to do with his woodworking equipment hahahaha. As much as I love diamonds he loves his tools. :)

These are magnificent. I love the setting and hope they fit perfectly. Best wishes that the appointment tomorrow goes well.
 
@missy These are just beautiful and stunning! I LOVE the setting! The swoopy claws but I love how little metal there is. So hopefully they will be light on the ear and fit you perfectly. I'm REALLY excited for you!!! :kiss2: :love: :bigsmile:
