Particularly gemstones. Particularly gemstone rings. That is why I have a slight addiction to HSN. HSN is the largest provider of gemstones in the US. At least that's what they say. Either way, I can find just about every kind of gemstone I like there in some of the prettiest settings I can dream of.
Currently, I am obsessed with a designer by the name of Victoria Wieck. Her ring designs are insane. Silver, gold it doesn't matter. The design work is feminine and glam. I love her.
I own this one. It's Blue and White Topaz set in sterling silver and designed by Victoria herself. It sits up high on the finger so everyone can see it. What use is having pretty jewelry if no one can see it? Since it was set in silver I got it for $39!
This is the next VW design on my horizon. It's an African Amethyst with pave set White Topaz stones. I love the enamel work on the hummingbird. It's much pricier at $499, but it's 14K gold. It's gorgeous I think.
While rings are my favorite, I do adore all other jewelry too. These Amethyst drop earrings are also by Victoria. They are set in silver and are on clearance now for $49.95. Not bad. I just love the little Rhodolite stone at the top. So pretty.
I purchased this baby at an estate sale a couple of years ago for $30. Yeah, it's not pretty, but it's gonna be. I plan on painting it in matte black and finishing the inside with some sort of soft jewelry friendly fabric. I'm thinking velvet. In pink. That's right, it's gonna be my jewelry armoire and yes, I can and fully plan on filling her up.
