Would you wear this:

I saw this today:
http://www.qvcuk.com/ukqic/qvcapp.aspx/view.2/app.detail/params.item.686106.cm_scid.ItemNumberSearch
item No 686106 if the link does not work.

a snip at £205.50 but P7P a surprisingly low £4.95

Would you wear this? Because I think its hideous, and to me it looks like a cheap ring you can get on a market stall. I just do not get it.:wonder::wonder:

 

[Posy]

Certainly a very odd looking ring. I can imagine the legs and head catching on everything. Personally I like a very traditional ring setting.

 

[Bensmum]

Looks like one of those rings you'd find in a glass case on a pier that you put 10p in and press buttons to work the grabber.

If you like big rings then it would be okay without the head and legs. Personally I think less is definitely more 'classy' looking. I'm not a fan multiple rings on every finger either.

:mysmilie_468: I wouldn't!

 

[craftybel]

nor would i! hideous

There's this show on Style TV that I secretly love and on it there's a section called the "Ewww tube", say no more, however, I love the briolette/chequerboard cut and the smokey quartz, please remove the head and flippers! BUT for OVER £200.......

 

[queenie]

No I don't like it
Maybe it would look ok as a pendant?
Someone out there will like it though won't they?!

 

[icedupsnowqueen]

Totally agree with Mediastar, love the chequerboard cut, but the head and flippers: what was the "designer" thinking of???????

 

[cupcake]

In a nutshell, no!!! Not to my taste.

 

[CountessK]

I'd wear it if it was costume jewellery that cost £20 out of Debenhams or Accessorise. It's fun and quirky. But no way I'd pay £200+ on it, no.

 

[Sazza]

No I wouldnt buy or wear it, I have better things to do with £200, well I would if I had £200 to spare!!!

 

[petpixie]

Not my thing at all ~ I suppose if you were a 'turtle person' like I'm a 'cat person' then it may appeal, but other than that I can't imagine too many people picking it on style alone.

 

[JacquelineMammaof4]

perhaps if the designer gave me £200.............

 

[NoMoreSpendsEva]

It's not to my taste either but my first thought was that someone who was into turtles in a big way might be an intended buyer. There is a jewellers shop in Mall at Millenia in Orlando called Na Hoku & it has loads of turtle type pieces.

Some of the simple pieces are quite lovely.:happy: imo:blush:

 

[Leighton Orient]

I'd never want a turtle's head on the end of my finger than you very much;-)

 

[Catkins]

Leighton Orient that was "turtley" inappropriate!!!

 

[Leighton Orient]

Soz!!! I shall retreat into my shell now for the rest of the day!!

 

[AnnaBanana]

Aaaww, I feel sorry for it!! I think it's cute and would definitely wear it, but I wouldn't spend £200 on it - as I wouldn't spend £200 on anything much, really.

I can understand why people don't like it though, you've got to really love animals/turtles especially (like I do) to like such a thing - there's no middle ground with such a specific design.

 

[clairella]

Only if I can have a matching Quacker Factory teeshirt and handbag..............

I saw this ghastly item being aired, think it was yesterday on Tucson gemfair show, and it took a while before I worked out what it was meant to be. Apart from the sheer ugliness of it, the sticky out bits would catch on everything. It's a health & safety issue.
