I have a lot of reviews to write.

The haul from the visit before last, the visit w/o a TSV.

J262053/14k clad princess cut DMQ earrings - For those of us who sometimes just want a little something something in our ears, this may be your answer. They are petite but pack a presence. I wanted something which I could wear with a larger presence on the neck, and these work beautifully. Comfy with a comfy price too, these are winners.

J269279/Green Chalcedony & DMQ drop earring - I got these after viewing Allison with Gabrielle via DVR. They are super! The DMQ is minimal, with just a small amount of added twinkle when the green chalcedony dances from one’s ear lobe. For a larger earring, they do not hang heavy; they are comfy. The glow of color from the earring really lights up one’s face. I can see this style being replicated in all sorts of figurations. These are terrific earrings!

J263128/Ceramic watch in white - I have had this in black since it was a TSV. When it became a OTO i couldn’t allow it to pass me by. I think I like it even better in white as the DMQ seems to meld into the ceramic, unlike the black. Great watch. Arrived with the watch already in use.

J281406/Estate ring - Hubba, bubba! What a beautiful, labor intensive, but demure ring. Although one might think so from first look, it is not over the top nor gaudy. I cannot imagine how long it took to set each of the DMQ stones. It reminds me of the mansion in which “Downton Abby” is filmed. It is comfy to wear and a winner through and through.

J260724 - Cabochon drop earring - LTS. OUCH! They were on my ears but seconds before I was packing them up for return. I should have listened to the reviews.

Ordered the white agate beads for which I’m on WL.

==========

FROM THE MOST RECENT VISIT:

Exchanged both my cuffs of the Pearl Aurora for a small rather than medium. These fit very well and are in perfect condition.

J278482/Regent watch, YG, small - After three tries and almost two months of waiting, it finally arrived. It was used. The watch was running and none of the plastic coverings were on the watch. The watch is beautiful and fits slightly loose on my 6” wrist.

J282679/Truffle 36” bead station necklace - Arrived used, with the lobster claw unhooked. The necklace was in a lump of a mess of knots which took me fully ten minutes to get untangled. It is a gorgeous necklace which was unceremoniously treated by the Q. Each truffle station is a work of art, with just the right amount of DMQ used. To quote Suzytoo, it is just enough.

J276206/Ice cube bracelet - Arrived used and slightly dirty. Cleaned it up and inspected it for damage and there was none. It may be too much DMQ for me to wear. I’ll have to give it a go for another couple of days and see. it is very lovely and well made. The carvings around each “ice cube” are deliciously done.

J279951/14kGC blue doublet 3 stone cuff - Arrived used with one stone smudged and cloudy. Cleaned it off and does not appear to have any damage. I have this in silver; I love both. The scale of this cuff is smaller than most and is not overdone. The amount of DMQ is realistic.

J264460/Pink ribbon pin - on clearance - Arrived used and in good condition. it is very teeny tiny, but suits my needs. The carving on such a small pin is mind boggling.

J284530/OTO stack rings - YG, rose & silver - These are small scale and perfect for my needs. Beautiful bead setting and berge texturing. The gold is spot on. Love them!

J273535/Faceted heart citrine cuff - Arrived used. Condition seemed to be good. This is a small scale cuff which I really like. Although demure, it has all the bells and whistles which we have come to expect from Miss Judie. There is a tiny amount of DMQ. Perfect alone or for layering.

J269842/ set of 2 gem rings - Presence is insignificant and I do not care for the way they play together. I can’t tell the different gems. Not bright like the pic. Back they go.

TSV/J279947/ 36” YGC necklace with stations of DMQ - LOVE IT! It is just enough DMQ. Texturing is wonderful, especially the backside of each DMQ station. It is light on my neck and so easy to wear. I see where there has been some discussion of flipping. To tell you the truth I have not idea if it flips, nor do I care. It is made to move around. It is a real winner.

OTO/J284534/ YG clad tennis bracelet - HOLY COW!!!!! What a stunning bracelet! The scale is perfect, the texture is perfect, the amount of DMQ is perfect. The clasp is beyond perfect, as Miss Judie hid it behind the most demure pave heart you can imagine. It is so wonderful I am beside myself. WINNER!!!!!

J279474/Pia emerald & pearl necklace - This baby is beyond belief. It is heart breakingly beautiful, with the emerald sparkling, pearls lustrous, and the texturing just enough. I have it on while I type this with a green tank top and white shorts and it works. This is a pricier piece, but worth every penny. Miss Judie out did herself. It is wonderful.
