Some Recent Purchases

[Klosblue]

As some of you know, cameras and me don't go together! I've tried but sadly the art of photography eludes me :mysmilie_73: So, these are the links to some recent purchases. I really don't know how TJC manage to sell their Platinum overlay/Silver pieces at the prices they do but I just love them particularly for work (when I eventually get back after being off for 9 months!).

As you all know, the items all look far better IRL.

Smaller than I would normally wear but looks much bigger than the carat weight. Paid £19.95
https://www.thejewellerychannel.tv/popups/viewdetail.aspx?StockCode=646216
This is a real knuckleduster! The citrine is a beautiful colour and very sparkly. Paid £27.95
https://www.thejewellerychannel.tv/popups/viewdetail.aspx?StockCode=654466
This is quite an unusual multi gemstone piece as it has Fire Opal and Apatite in it rather than just the usual gems. This was a steal at £15.95!
https://www.thejewellerychannel.tv/popups/viewdetail.aspx?StockCode=654606
This one is really gorgeous IRL. Pic does nothing for it. Another steal at £16.95
https://www.thejewellerychannel.tv/popups/viewdetail.aspx?StockCode=628836
This is a little smaller than I expected but it's pretty and came in an Iliana box! Paid £19.95
https://www.thejewellerychannel.tv/popups/viewdetail.aspx?StockCode=647671
This is a good size and was bought to go with the ring above, however it also goes with a White Gold Pink Tourmaline ring I have - who's going to know it's silver when it's on? This one was £19.95
https://www.thejewellerychannel.tv/popups/viewdetail.aspx?StockCode=657352
This ring is absolutely beautiful IRL. I have 3 yellow gold Russian Diopside rings but this is the first in white metal. I normally keep away from White Topaz but I swear the sparkle from them is unbelievable. Paid £34.95.
https://www.thejewellerychannel.tv/popups/viewdetail.aspx?StockCode=651795
I haven't a clue what this will look like IRL as it hasn't arrived yet! Will let you know. Cost me a measly £19.95!

KlosB - blimey o'riley! Love all of them! Can't wait to hear about the Kyanite/Aquamarine ring - my fave out of them all (but the Pink Tourmalines come a very close 2nd) Now if you ever get fed up with any of them, I'm here with begging bowl in hand!

Debsie, I've seen all your beauties in The Drop - they're WOW! You might have been AWOL from here but you haven't half been busy :mysmilie_61:

 

[jacqualina]

What a gorgous haul Klos! Thanks for posting them and cheering my up - it's such a miserable day down here.

 

[SUPERCOOLWILLOW]

boy Klos you been busy but the prices and the styles just look so lush

 

[Junesie]

Oooooooooooh Klos, I just love your diopside ring ....:mysmilie_374:
By the way....where is the Drop? I keep seeing it mentioned but don't know where to find it.:mysmilie_73:

 

[Sacha]

Wowsers...............well done!

Ooooh Klos, I've just had a very very nice time checking out all your links. :mysmilie_687:

Loving everything from the pink Tourmalines to the brightly coloured mixed colours /gemstone pieces.......yum! Would love to have those meself but gutted that most TJC rings are too big for me......:mysmilie_1626:

Just a quickie question for you.....have these come from the TV auctions or some from their website? MTIA

Btw hope you don't mind me posting this link, as I was just looking online and saw this lovely coloured Amethyst and fairly unusual to see an Asscher cut thes days.

 

[Klosblue]

They've all come from TV auctions Sacha, mainly when John Scott is on because he keeps making me spend money :mysmilie_61:

About the size of their rings - they are all far too big for me too. I used to take a K but am nearer an L or M these days probably because of the steroids. Instead of having them resized I use the little clear plastic tubes on the back which really do work! It saves a fortune on resizing and if I had got them resized I would be in trouble now because they'd all be a size K and I'd never get them on! I have loads of size K's, all in yellow gold which I can't get on just now so I hope once I'm off the steroids my fingers shrink again!

 

[Sacha]

Thank you.............

Clear little plastic tubes.......ahh........sounds just what I could do with as even size N tends to swivel
a bit these days! Where are they from and are they easy to get hold of, if I may ask?

Looks like I shall have to keep an even beadier eye on John then.

 

[Klosblue]

I'm not sure if these are the same as the ones I have but I think they are. They are assorted widths for different bands and mine are also assorted thickness so can be used on various sizes of rings to make them fit. They take a wee bit of getting used to but are well worth a try.

Oh what a lovely selection Klos, I too love my silver and some of those are exceptional - and great prices too.
I think my favourite is the kyanite/aquamarine, gorgeous combination. Can't wait to hear what you think of it!
That citrine is amazing too, wouldn't suit me but I wish it would!
Do enjoy wearing them, there's some real beauties, you have something to go with any outfit there!
Quick cheeky question if you don't mind - I was hovering over the apatite version of your tourmaline pendant, any chance you could let me know the size of it? I backed away as I like at least 1.5 inches and my best guess was it would be an inch!

 

[Sacha]

Thanks for the link Klos, they look just the job, think I'll get some ordered asap. Cheers poppet :mysmilie_687:

No problem at all. You're right, it's an inch across and just slightly over an inch from bale to bottom.

 

[PearlyQueen]

Thanks Klos, much appreciated.
I'm getting good at guessing!

 

[Beading Belle]

Wow Klosblue love them all and great prices too. I can see me glued to TJC next time they have a SS day

Sacha those plastic ring things are great! I have a set too.

Big looks for little prices Mrs! Well done you! You do realise you'll have to go back to work now to pay for them all! :mysmilie_697:

Ha ha I know, that's the down side. Oh well at least going back to work will give me somewhere to wear them :mysmilie_61:

 

[petpixie]

Lots of real beauties there Klos! I don't own much jewellery (not compared to most blingsters on here anyway) and am looking for a diopside to add to my small collection. I can't believe the price you paid for yours! Fab choices and fab prices!

 

[Beady Belle]

Lovely haul Klos, I particularly like the multi gems and the big citrine, absolutely gorgeous. I wish you hadn't posted those plastic thingys, I don't buy because the rings are way too big on me. :mysmilie_697:

I find I'm tuning it to TJC more and more now, and they've really upped their game recently, when you think back to the old days where it would take them an hour to sell 5 items, these special days they've been having are fantastic, and the prices amazing.

Oh Paula how awful was that? You could go to Tesco and do your weekly shop and when you got back they'd still be on the same item :mysmilie_61: They've really turned things around now but if they could just sort out their postage charges as I object strongly to paying per item when they arrive in the same bag!
