Wow!! First thing that came to mind was Grace Kelly and other Princesses. These pieces are beyond amazingly beautiful. So thoughtful of your parents and DH to work together on this stunning necklace. Can I ask you if they are white pearls or silverish (hard to tell from my device, and bad eyesight too)? And BIG Congrats again on your well deserved promotion — very happy for you :smile:. Are you still on your holiday break? And one last thing, we wouldn’t mind seeing you wearing these gorgeous pieces (if you feel like some kind of mod shots or partial mod shots), Do you have an upcoming event to wear them to? Thanks for sharing Miss Dawn.

Still on holiday :biggrin:

Going back to work next week :crybaby:

Thank you so much :smooch:

They're pearls, surrounded by zircon (https://www.gia.edu/zircon). It's a semi-precious gemstone with a very high refractive index and it comes in lots of colours, like sapphires. Thank you for the compliments :flowers:

I'm not sure when I'll get a chance to wear this, but I'll try to take a mod shot for you when I do!

For my promotion, my parents commissioned a jeweller to make a necklace for me :blush: I feel very spoiled. Mr Dawn colluded with them to model it on a pair of dressy earrings he gave me years ago. :hbeat:

Happy 2018 everyone. May this year bring you every happiness :drinks:

SPECTACULAR!!! It’s just the right mix of feminine, vintage, & modern style. I love it! It would make any occasion feel special, & any dress look more beautiful. I hope you’ve been able to wear the earrings already.

Many well-deserved congratulations to you on your promotion! [emoji898][emoji122]

I’m so glad to see that the stones are Zircon (December’s birthstone). They are an under appreciated semi precious stone. They refract light (sparkle) better than diamonds. The blue zircon is electric, the red is gorgeous, & the cognac is rich. Those are the only colors that I’ve seen in person besides the white/clear.

My lovely F&F, thank you :hugs:

I'm so glad you like them. I love these earrings so I'm very happy to have a matching necklace.

I haven't seen any of the other colours, only white. I understand cognac zircon is the rarest / most valuable but I only have white zircon. You're right it's very sparkly :biggrin:

Thank you :smooch:

I'm so rubbish at keeping my bags thread on topic :facepalm::panic:My bag showcase regularly becomes sidetracked by my posting about something else that has distracted me with its prettiness. Ah well :rolleyes:

I could never be upset with you being Queen, Miss_Dawn! Your necklace is fit for a queen.

I am still looking just for jeweled flip flops! [emoji184]
