Galop GM ring MOD shot. Taken very quickly--I will get better pics up soon :) My fingers are very swollen--too much salty Korean food--hehe.

Bluebiconfrise, I don't know what you were talking about--this ring is amazing!! And you ride and have stables--now that's the ticket. I LOVE this ring, but don't ride and even though I think horses are stunning, magnificent animals, I feel like I cannot wear this ring. LOVE IT on YOU!! Now, where is the bracelet??

Carlinha, AMAZING!!! What a piece!!
 
ladies and gents i wanted to share with you an amazing piece that i have been lusting after since seeing it in the ads, and then first previewing it here in this exact thread...

Reigning queen of H Silver, plumtree, has previewed the necklace and ring in this series, but being the bracelet girl that i am, that is what i ended up getting...

i have been talking about this piece non-stop to DH, and showing him all the photos, and to my great surprise, he presented me with my dream bracelet on Valentine's day...

i can't tell you how obsessed i am with it... the detail is truly amazing!!! it is such an easy piece to wear despite the size, because it's light (lighter than the silver CDC bracelet), and the torsade links are malleable and bend and mold exactly to your wrist, unlike the cuff/clic clac/enamels which are solid pieces.

for those interested, the sizing comes in XS, S, M and L... i have a very small wrist and the XS fits me perfectly... i could have gone smaller actually but there's nothing smaller than the XS.

anyway, without further ado, may i present Galop Bracelet GM
(sorry for the million pics but i am so in love and i have not seen many pics of this piece yet, so i figured if people were on the fence, this could help them decide)

** i also clearly have a thing for horses... i have several pieces with this magnificent creature so i tried to be creative and take photos with them as backdrops**

the head is sculpted in such a way that depending on the angle and how the light hits, it really looks like it has eyes and nostrils!

and lastly, just for fun, with white and silver polish


thank you for letting me share!

OMG!! I am late to the party, but am still OVER THE MOON about this beauty!! Holy Camole!!

I just stopped by to see what was going on as I bought my first silver piece besides my all silver CDC. Dang. I'm going to crawl back into my bed and put the covers over my head...... You ladies are wayyyyy out of my silver league.... :hugs:
 
Plumtree, this is a great, versatile and very unique necklace! We are scarf twins.

Arabesques, those earrings are stunning on you! How dear and special that MP likes them so much! Thanks for posting (I so want these).

Maedi, I have never looked in this thread and I have just scanned 20 pages...la la laughing at your comments--I want those. I want that... You my friend, sound like ME!

Thank you, Plumtree, Mimi, and Maedi. Maedi, they are so very fun to wear. I look forward to seeing you with them.

Oh arabesques--since I just copy-catted you on the red dip dye Brazil, I think I might need to try the earrings as I too have long hair!! Maedi---so do you!!...and you have the dip dye Brazil....dang there is a pattern here..... Triplets? hahaha
 
I Finally got the PM Galop bracelet--I LOVE it although I find it very difficult to get on and off. In my opinion, much more of a challenge than the SS CDC which I found difficult to remove at first...obviously that didn't stop me as I purchased anyway. Here he is still wearing his protective plastic :D

Can you please share with me the price and also if anyone knows the price of the rings.. I must get both!!

Carlinha, AMAZING!!! What a piece!!

LOL! I just posted a pic of the bracelet! I don't have a mod shot yet as it's still in the box with the plastic on--hehe! I got the PM as it is more of a thin bangle but still very weighty and a substantial piece. For some reason it suited me better than the GM. The GM, as you said looks absolutely AMAZING on Carlinha! The PM looks stunning stacked with CDC's.

Thank you so much for your kind words about the ring--it is gorgeous in person! :D You should check it out as if you find horses to be beautiful, I think you would love it on!
 
Gorgeous! Congrats! I saw that at Ala Moana on a day trip a few weeks back and thought it looked like liquid silver. I was on Oahu for work, which luckily enough was near Ala Moana, but sadly I only had lunch break to dash around peeking into my fave boutiques.

Thank you so much! Last I was there, they had a large that was available-- that was a few days ago. I had my size brought in so you can always do that :graucho:;) I'm totally enabling--I'll stop. :p Glad you made it to Oahu but I know what you mean--no fun to be on time constraints.
 
bluebichonfrise, I was just wondering if this came home with you! :smile1: Congratulations on your new beauty, and I look forward to seeing modelling snaps. I love the Galop pieces, they're so whimsical, and beautiful!

LOL! It took a bit of time to get my size in but I finally got it--yay! Thank you for the compliments :D The Galop pieces are really special, I agree. I will get pics up soon :heart:
