Kachina, I beg to differ with you. I have many Or Paz pieces and love all of them. None of them is tinny.


I agree w/Sunshine. I don't believe there is one piece that is electroform.

I have an electroform Tree of Life ring and I have other rings I could easily squash between my arthritic thumb and forefinger. I wouldn't have said so if it weren't true. Maybe my standards are higher than yours.

I have J286184 (Lace Ring) and Love it. I got it when it was a OTO I think. I wear it nearly every day. It's not flimsy at all. Watching the budget right now or else I'd order a lot more Or Paz.

Correction: J286124

Mine are of great quality. I just don't need to buy more.

I have one ring with a large labradorite stone that I bought when he first came to the Q. The ring is fabulous, made well and a good weight. The price of it was well over 1oo dollars and that was before gold and silver went through the roof. I have not seen any thing even close to the quality and design of that ring in Or Paz for years.

I would have purchased J317908 until I noticed in the item description it is electroform, or is the correct term electroformed?

Yes, some of the pieces are thin. However, you can tell by the pricing what to expect.

 

I purchased 3 rings so far.  One was No Image Found and is heavy and I think beautiful  I've kept this and wear it.  This was a rare ring (I would find out) that was true to size in the Or Paz Line.

 

The second ring I purchased was No Image Found This ring ran very, very smal and was so thin and little. No substance.  Returned.

 

Shortly, thereafter, this OTO was available and I purchased it and sized up. It is also very thin and was considering returning it but it was inexpensive and just kept it.No Image Found   The ring doesn't look as nice in person and not really a fan of this. 

 

I would only purchase a more substantial ring.  Some of his spinner rings have spinners that fall off per reviews.

 

. This looks substantial and is in the correct price range. There is also another 14K gold and sterling silver ring that is new that is also attractive. However, I prefer the one I just posted.

 

 

I've ordered Hagit's earrings.  No Image Found and like them. She should make a right and left earring...Just like Or Paz should...but they don't. Sometimes, the pictures are misleading. 

No Image Found

I have these Or Paz earrings and love them. Light but they should be.

J317742. Large ruffle cuff is electroform. It has 32 five star reviews, and an overall rating of 4.5 stars. If this piece were solid, it would be too heavy on the arm and not as comfortable.

 I have many of his pieces.  Many Roman glass.  The big silver rose ring, I did not get, but do have the big rose silver necklace I think it,s electricity, but not sure.  It is beautiful and I get lots of complements on all the pieces.

I only have two pieces from Or Paz so far.  I have the Calla Lily earrings (J273688) in Moonstone, and the Dragonfly ring (J278726) in Tanzanite.  Both seem substantial to me.  The earrings are a nice size, and not too heavy.  I really like his earrings, and have many on my wish list.

 

I was interested in last week's TTV ring in the Amethyst choice, but it's a very long ring, so I want to read some reviews first to get an idea of what people think of the length and fit.

 

I like the Israeli jewelry lines.  Many of the pieces are unique and beautiful.  I also like Hagit Gorali's jewelry, as well as Evine's Passage to Israel line.

Mine are anything but thin and tinny.  Great design and quality.  In my case, however I am not buying as much jewelry as I once was.
