Hi, Illuv!
You play the violin!? Great! And obviously such a beautiful one!

 

[udalrike]

Thanks, JellyV! You are right, when I am wearing them I often look in the mirror and admire their beauty....

This is the only thing I don´t like about earrings: That everyone can see them except me....

Hi, Illuv!

Yes, I am a performer and teacher. This particular bow is from 1900. I love owning a piece of history!

I just bought some beautiful jasper, amethyst and rose quartz beads- time to get to work!

 

[udalrike]

1900! WOW!!
Please show us your jewelry...
I saw that you have a Dachshund. In German we say also : Dackel. You probably know that already....

 

[udalrike]

I am a teacher too, Iluv.

Beautiful shot, Uli. The lovely color variations and special carving of the end beads do get lost in a small pic.

You are right, JellyV! Still waiting for your ambers.....

Uli, hope you had a great time! Bet you had the most fab wrists there! haha

GG, very nice pieces. Thanks for sharing. The larimar is breathtaking! Don't know why, but it always takes my breath away. I have one little larimar ring that is one of those rings that " flips". Dominican amber on one side, larimar on the other. I'll try to share a pic later. . .
