Default Over the top Jewelry (Lots of Pics)
I often get some of the craziest jewelry pieces in through Estate work and even though alot of it is insanely over the top, it's also very fascinating to see some of the craftsmanship. So I thought this would be a great thread to share those HUGE, over-the-top, ugly, beautiful, humorous or elegant pieces you see.
These are some I have seen on "the internets", through work and/or saved in my picture files.
------------------------------------------------

This was an Estate piece that was from the 1940's, 7.7 carat fancy yellow pear.


Here is an 18 Carat Diamond, IF, I color sold by a Jeweler in Florida last year.
