*Show Your Tiffany DBTY Necklace!!!*

[laeticia]

Ahhh, ok.

I did own the 0.12ct in YG and the cutlet on the back bothered me, so I sold it. Unfortunately, I'm allergic to WG and silver (most white metals, with the exception of platinum, as far as I'm aware). That's OK with me, because my skin is quite pink and white metals look harsh against my skin tone.

I was going to purchase a smaller DBTY to avoid the cutlet poking/scratching, but am enthusiastic about the idea of the RG 0.17ct cutlet not sticking out the back, because then it won't poke/scratch and I can still have a larger DBTY.

And I'd planned to layer a RG DBTY with the RG bean I already have.

Ah sorry i thought you were considering the 0.12 YG. The RG DBTY definitely doesn't poke at all I may have gone overboard on the layering though cos the bow necklace is the 2nd necklace I've bought to layer with it!

As long as you don't wear them ALL together, I don't think you can have enough necklaces! Layering is fine if done tastefully.

Hi all! So my husband got me a CBTY necklace for Christmas, my first Tiffany piece. Now, I'm pretty sure this is the 16 inch chain, and to me I'm not sure if this is awkwardly short or not for my size (I'm not petite, pretty muscular sz 12). My 16 looks much shorter than others I've seen on this thread (or am I just thick neck self conscious?? LOL) I would love to layer it with another necklace eventually (Birthday is in Feb!) but is this just shorter than any other necklace I have - is this how it is supposed to fit? Sorry if my pic is large...first time posting one from ipad.

Hi von, this looks like the 16inch to me, looks great on you but if it feels uncomfy perhaps it would be worth getting it extended! I am lucky as the 16 inch is longer on me, it sits just below the hollow on my throat! Lovely piece though! xx

I think it looks great on you! Mine comes farther down so it seems to get covered by my clothing a lot. However if it is too tight they can add extensions at the store.

Thanks ladies! I wasn't sure if this was right or tight, it's definitely not uncomfortable though. I think it's the perfect length and color to layer with a small rose gold diamond that would sit about an inch longer, since it will pick up on the pink of the sapphire. I'm not usually A metals mixer, but I think it might look nice.

 

[PeacefulMommy]

It's lovely!!

From the photo, it definitely looks like its 16 inches. And I *wish* the 16" hung like that on me!! I have to have mine shortened to get it to hang there. I love the way it sits on you. Very pretty and perfect for layering!

 

[Caz71]

Yes i find the16 inch tight. See how you go. It looks lovely. I WANT ONE lol what size diamond?

A very nice 1st piece! If u plan on layering it with another necklace, this length is perfect!

I know that tiffany diamonds are cut more shallow, so the table is wider and the carat looks bigger than they really are. From looking at the pictures, would you say that a tiffany 0.08 carat would be similar to a non-tiffany 0.1 carat?

I've been wondering abt that too. There is a non-tiffany necklace i'm eyeing and it is .10 but slightly more expensive than the tiffany rg .07 & yg .08. But if the tiffany ones look just as big with the wider table then i would rather get a tiffany one and save the extra money.

 

[Caz71]

I would say that the cut is going to be the most important factor here.
It is so hard, in my opinion, to judge a diamond simply from specs, but... I would go with 5 as my first choice, and then 1 as my second choice.
Good luck with your decision!

Hi darkangel - do you still have a pic of yr aquamarine dbty. I really love that color. Many thanks

Hi ladies, I was wondering if y'all can help me out
So my birthday is coming up in two weeks and my Dbf will be buying me a dbty necklace. This will also be my first tiffany piece. So my dilemma is that I love the dbty but I also like the pink sapphire cbty. I am turning 22. i'll be graduating soon and probably be working in an office setting soon (HR specialization). I would like to wear the necklace daily including at work as well but I'm afraid that the pink color seems childish? Also of the dbty three sizes that tiffany offers in ss, what size would suit me best in terms of my age, profession, and the fact that this will be my first tiffany piece. Or should I just choose a different tiffany piece like the bean and buy the dbty for when I'm older?
Any help is much appreciated~

I dont think the pink sapphire is childish at all. It is very pretty and subtle. If anything, i feel that u need only worry that the pink colour may not go with all colours of your outfits!

Re the dbty sizes, i think all 3 sizes will be fine. I dont see any issues with wearing any of the sizes in you future profession. I wore a .17 diamond solitaire for long periods in the first few years of my 1st job.

I don't think the pink is childish at all! That being said, when I looked at the pink sapphire it was hard to see the pink in it and it didn't have as much sparkle as the other stones has.
