Hi everybody,

Like most here, I love jewellery (or jewelry - take your pick, just don't make me wear suspenders on either side of the pond); on that I found the perfect partner a long time ago - I buy, she wears, we are both happy if somewhat cash poor.

The collection is very varied, but I'm afraid the emphasis is most often on design rather than stones. I'll get round taking pictures - if I can get the camera to cooperate - in the next few days. However, no coloured diamonds (yet!); I hope I won't get censored by the webmaster police

We found David's site a couple of weeks ago browsing on eBay, and just missed out on three of the best stones ever. So we are busy making it over to ourselves by ordering a few... more news once they are ready!

After a few email exchanges with David, I started lurking on the forum and appreciating the company of ~~nutters~~ - I mean, like-minded people. Then tonight I saw a question I could not resist answering, even though it was on an old thread, and here I am.

Thanks for reading this. And thanks for making this forum a pleasant place.

Welcome to the forum from another newbie! Can't wait to see your pics and hear what diamonds you've missed out on (I'm intrigued and nosey)!

No brothers, I'm afraid. Only one sister (who does not wear jewellery, since she trains horses for a living and destroys stainless steel sports watches by the dozen in the process - imagine what would happen to gold).

Will consider cloning if enough requests come through. Wink

Thanks for the welcome!

Unlikely with these - I know where they ended up and why... then again, you never know.

I am sorry. Just when you think your heart will be broken forever, David squeeks out the impossible. These were my babies that got away.

Oh no, losing that blue diamond must have been a heartbreaker. Cry

Just as a matter of interest, is there a section where people offer their rings to others? I've noticed that forum members often buy each other's pieces???

The warmest of welcome to our new canine friend "oldmancoyote"

So good to see you here. So, no colored diamonds yet? We'll see what we can do about that then Evil

And although people might miss out on one thing, sometimes the thing that comes along is truly remarkable too!

More like the collection she has been building for me, actually... or for the kids. My daughter (3 years and 8 months today) now says "This for mummy?" whenever she sees an ad for jewellery... Grin

Thanks to all for the welcome. Sunday will be dedicated to photographs - promise.

Well, since you ask so nicely...

A few bits will be up in... oh, however long it takes for me to figure out how to link them in.

I'll just say one more thing: after this evening's photo session, my respect for David has gone up tenfold. Some of these stones are blipping difficult to photograph.

Hi OMC! Look at that - you're an old mine cut! Off to check out your thread - I have a yearning for eye candy today and I have a feeling your thread might just do the trick.........
