Re: What Did You Get from the Jackie Kennedy Collection??

I finally received the Castellani bracelet I've had my eyes on forever. It was missing one of the tiny stones on the side of a link. I love the bracelet and it has special significance for me, so don't want to return it just for that. I already contacted Camrose & Kross about it. They said they would exchange it for me. Sent it off today and keeping my fingers crossed.

OH. I hope you get a perfect one.

I probably purchased too much, but they were pieces I had been admiring for a while and wanted anyway. I also went to the Camrose and Kross website and purchased three pieces no longer available at QVC. I wear the pieces in my collection often and they always get compliments.

I hear the new line is going to be Audrey Hepburn, but I hope someday they would also offer the same quality pieces of Princess Diana's jewelry. Some companies try to replicate, but they fall so short I won't buy them.

Most of all, I will miss the great history lessons Phil Katz gave us.

Yes, I would love to see Princess Diana jewelry. Kind of doubt that will ever happen....unless maybe her brother can work it?

I liked buying a piece now and then on the shows. This power buying has stretched my pocketbook for sure!

In case anyone is interested smithsonianshop.com also has some JBK jewelry. I didn't see the wedding bracelet but they do have the unity ring and the paperclip necklace if you missed out on it with QVC. There were a lot of other pieces too. They also have a description with each piece telling when it was given to her and when she wore that particular piece.

Her brother or the Royal Family. Some pieces went to the Spencer family, such as the Spencer tiara, but I think some is in a vault within the confines of the Royal Family. Probably doubt it as well, but it would be nice to get the same quality of replication as for the Jackie jewelry, with a portion of the proceeds going to the late Princess of Wales' favorite charities.
