Thank you so much. ====== dkh - thank you ======= Autumnsunset - thanks so much for your kind words. ======= Roe - thanks, honey. ===== Glitter Puss - you had me laughing out loud and I really needed it. We're twins! Thanks. ====== ilovekailua - because they're cabs, not faceted gems, there is more of a glow, with the background twinkle from the BS. I don't know about a comparison to the video. ======Shewel - thank you. ===== PMP - hello and nice to see you. It is unique. Thanks, hon. ===== BGDC - thanks, honey! =====

Kappy, It is stunning! I bet you will come up with a ton of combinations and suites to mix the cuff in with. You have a beautiful collection and this is one more gem to add to it... :-) Wear it in the best of health!

Hi Kaplan, you described this beauty to perfection. It will be a lovely addition to your very gorgeous Ripka collection. I am impatient to get mine now, it just shipped. Hopefully I will love it as much. Enjoy yours in the best of health.

You know, by now I should know enough to ignore people who respond to threads with negative remarks. But somehow, the several negative remarks on the "Holy Cow" thread hurt my feelings. I was in an obvious place of joy and happiness so why would someone feel it necessary to rain on my parade, so to speak. Yes, to those people, I know it's expensive of which you do not need to remind me; I will pay for it, so its cost does not escape me. Please try to be more sensitive if you are ever tempted to post a negative comment during someone's moment of happiness. Thank you.

No, you shouldn't "have to know" to ignore those people ... they should have the civility to not see someone's obvious joy and take that opportunity to rain all over it. For some reason, as platforms expand - call-in shows for CNN, AM radio blather, online forums, Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, ad infinitum - people are given the idea that ALL of their opinions matter all of the time and need to be shared.

Congrats on the new cuff - I thought it was really cool looking and quite unique and fun! Enjoy.

Many thanks, ChicagoHeather. I appreciate your kind words. Have you written any poems lately, if I have the correct person?

As I noted on the other thread, I don't tend to be a fan of black spinel or of multi-gemstone pieces, but I thought this piece was quite unique and quite stunning and I love cabochon gemstones. I did not purchase it but can certainly understand doing so. I hope you enjoy it greatly for many years to come!

I loved your review. This is such a unique piece from Judith. It looked gorgeous. I'm glad it turned out to be so wonderful for you. Enjoy and wear in good health.
