@KentuckyWoman I figured it was rhodium, I saw it only very briefly and bleary eyed insomnia this am.

 

I guess they did that for something different? I do like the antique look of some rhodium but I don't know...

I like the tsv, but $5 for shipping and handling is too much.  I would consider order two colors but I do not want to pay 10 in shipping.  Crazy.

Think the TSV is lovely but don't know where I would wear it.

I do not care for the black plating underneath the stones.  This has been a technique they have transitioned to in the last few years and I would just never buy any jewelry with the black.  I feel it is a way to hide flaws either in the stones or the polish of the metal.

I miss Peyton telling stories about stones.  It is like watching someone ooohing and ahhhing and the person that knows about it is silenced.

@lolakimono $250 for the fishy? I assume it's jade. I love jade but I don't have any.

 

For that price you could take a weekend trip to go fishing  😊


You haven't seen the jadeite at Gem Shopping.  About a thousand a piece.  These are crated by a Myamar designer Shentee (not sure how to spell, but that's how you pronounce)  Big junks of jadeite in endless colors.  Hard to believe they are that expensive, but they are.  Those that are not set in 18K or platinum (just by itself) big chunky bangles are under a thousand.  About $550.00.

 

By the way, there is a difference between Jade and Jadite.  Couple of thousand dollars difference.
