Unless I missed it, designer gemstone jewelry was conspicuously missing on yesterday’s shows....PTR, Ripka, Barbara Bixby, etc. It would have been nice to see some new pieces from them on 6 e/p.

 

The Q would have had to give them a % of sales, though. Greed, I guess.

I think it is a fine slection, and I only see half the items shown, when I look recently on airs. I did manage to catch some of the shows, and oh my, I wish I could ordered few items. Some choises were spectacular.

Saw many lovely things at huge prices , for me anyway, but it was fun to see them. But jewelry is not a thing for me anymore so that saved my wallet. Wish there was alot less chatter from the hosts and more from venders. A few hosts need to be told that it is better to look dumb than open your mouth and remove all doubt. Man Embarassed

I didn't watch, but I did browse through what was shown online.  Most of the stones they are showing are ones I already have--multiples, in fact.  I also noticed that a number of the stud earrings had one star ratings, which didn't inspire me to look further.

 

Even though I'm not a silver fan, some of Carolyn Pollack's pieces were quite lovely; and blue jade is hard to come by, so there's that.

 

I'll have to review the pieces when I have more time to really shop.  A quick run-through is not enough to make any decisions.  All in all, though, I din't see anything that made me want to buy it right then and there.
