I am not able to buy any new sparklies for awhile. So I am in dire need of a sparkly fix. I would love to see some recent pics of the fabulous collections you wonderful ladies have. Hand pics too are most welcome. Pretty please....

i don't have enough lighting to do much tonight, but here's a couple of quick shots of the jewelry case i go to most often :

(clickie the pictures to load the full size version)





the silver one - the one with the honkin' pink heart - is the ring we used for me in our wedding.
there's one that's copper (the filigree one midway down the second column), 11 of them are vermeil (gold over silver)

and, yes, the three bands in the fifth column are all different variations on the same theme

Holy Cow Dana, you've got some nice stuff, and this is the "one" you go to most often, how many others exist!! LOL

seriously that case is insane

Dana's collection just made me swoon! Fabulous. The rings I am most interested in your case are 1st row, rings 2 and 6. Third row the 4th ring that looks a bluish green on my monitor, and the 8th ring in the 4th row. Can you tell me about these beauties?


Lisa

Wow,what a nice collection!

+1 Those are some awesome rings. What a treasure trove to pick from each day!

I know I posted this in some other thread but to feed your inner sparkly monster, happy to oblige.

There's a few rings missing, I need to update. Maybe a little later. But in the meantime

Wowza MGR, nice!!

those are my most favourite rose gold ones... and i forgot to include the ones on my toes and my right hand.

there are others that are packed away, and that doesn't include the other metals i've got (yellows & whites, tungsten, titanium, etc) although i just realised that i think i put a white & yellow gold antique ring away in that case a few days ago after i got it out to play with it. haha! oops.

i'll see if i can get the case outside and get some pictures without my husband thinking i've lost my mind entirely.

did y'all figure out that if you click the pictures, it loads a bigger version, but if you click that one, it'll get even bigger?

and Lisa, the ones you asked about :
1st row, rings 2 and 6... the second one is 14kt with diamonds and garnets - i have the pendant that matches it, too, somewhere - i love that ring, 'cuz it is so huge. i also have an identical cousin of it that's platinum-over-silver with czs and faux tanzanite :
they're both from ShopNBC, the silver one last year, the gold one from about four years ago now i think?

the sixth one, the twisty band - currently on the Bistro with better pictures & more description - i got to go with my OEC Asha, but i wound up just not loving the look

Third row the 4th ring that looks a bluish green : the big honkin' oval? that one's rose gold over silver, set with a clear quartz. i got it a few months back from HSN. it comes in yellow vermeil and pink vermeil, with either a clear stone or a smoky quartz stone. here : http://jewelry.hsn.com/technibond-white-...134&o=&ocm=seis

and the 8th ring in the 4th row : that was from ShopNBC's Diamond-Coated Signity in 14K collection from about four years ago now, i think? i LOVE that ring. there's a better picture over here : http://betterthandiamond.com/discussion/...6812#Post556812
i loved that ring so much when i first bought it that i went back and bought another one when they marked down the price. if only i could figure out a way to have the RB in the middle taken out and have an OEC set instead, then it'd be just about perfect. it's smooth, doesn't snag on anything, is as low set as possible and is the only ring with an RB that i've ever really liked.
it also came in white gold, and i've seen them show up on ebay a time or two
