My keepers from the ultra-clearance

[MissMagpie]

Quite a few bits going back - I'm a fussy so-and-so - but these are the ones that are staying:

Amethyst & champagne diamond silver ring - £49:

A real statement piece. The amethyst is a lovely, deep colour (much better than photo) and compliments the champagne diamonds perfectly.

Blue & white diamond earrings - £175:

OK so the white diamonds are not the best I've ever seen, but the blues are very sparkly and the overall design is just lovely.

Andalusite and diamond earrings - £34
http://www.gemstv.co.uk/Shop/productDataSheet.jsp?productid=UNM9414
These are delightful, and a great bargain at the price. They have extremely fine miegraining all around the bezels, which gives them a delicate, antique look. The small size of the andalusites means that you have to look hard to see the pleochroism, but it is there.

Blue and white topaz silver ring - £38

Just a fun piece, really - I'll remember to wear it next time it snows! (Which will probably be next week, the rate things are going...)

Rainbow sapphire and diamond ring - £229
(I did see this go for £199 on one occasion, but it was gone in an instant and my clicky finger just wasn't fast enough!)

The star of the show! I must have seen and returned at least 4 different rainbow sapphire rings, so delighted at last to have found one that "works". The colour blending is perfect - even better than in the photo, although it looks pretty good in the photo - and it sits comfortably on the hand. Looks fab with my bracelet, too! I've come to the conclusion that rainbows work best with small sapphires (2mm) - larger ones don't give such an even graduation of colour.

Nice haulage MissM! However, which ones are going back, it's not clear!

I'm so glad you're happy with the RS ring - funnily enough that's on a forward order for me and we must have been watching at the same time because I got it for £229 also! Did you get the bigger RS one that I had delivered today?

I saw the blue/white topaz snowflake type ring on air, i loved it, i cant wear silver thought whatever i do it makes my finger green, but it is a gorgeous ring.

Suzyglam, most of Gems silver pieces (including this one) are rhodium plated, just like white gold, so it shouldn't make your fingers green. Worth knowing for next time!

Those ones are all keepers, Meesh. I didn't bother to list the ones going back - gone and forgotten! (It's quite a long list...)

Yes, I did get the RS full eternity ring that you also had. Like you, I found it too wide to be comfortable, and the overall shape was clunky and inelegant. Also, while the colour graduation was mostly good, where the pinks joined the oranges it was terrible.

For someone that's confessed to not liking rainbow sapphires, Meesh, you're very persistent - let's hope the RS and diamond ring will convert you! I think it's a lovely little ring - there's nothing about it not to like, if you know what I mean.

You know which one I'm going to say is my favourite, yep the RS :lol: However, I really love the 'fun' ring, something I would definitely wear. Well done on your latest haulage Miss M.

 

[Sacha]

Great haul....

Congratulations on some very pretty pieces Miss M, the silver rings are lovely and the designs very interesting.
Both sets of earrings are lovely also, I saw the Blue Diamond earrings on the telly and they did look very stylish
and a good price for all carat weight...I bet they cost a helluva lot more previously!

My favourite is of course the RS ring, I think they have to be seen irl to be fully appreciated and the point you made
about using the smaller stones is a good one. Pity that you don't have a camera, would be nice to see it in its full glory.

 

[SUPERCOOLWILLOW]

wow MissM they are super lovely i love the RS there again i love my bright colours

 

[gemcherub]

Lovely especially the RS

 

[MissMagpie]

The RS are a big hit, aren't they?

In fact, it was the new RS collection that got me watching Gems again in the first place - Gems, please note!!
