I have a YG and diamond chain. I’ll also probably spring for the leather cord too. Will post pics when I receive it.

ETA: I have not seen it in real life…. *biting fingernails* I’m fairly confident I will love it.

As I complete my jewelry collection, I really want iconic pieces I will love. I’d rather get fewer pieces. I am also consigning pieces I don’t wear. Yesterday, I consigned three VCA pieces, an Elizabeth Locke necklace, two Yossi Harari earrings, plus some other unbranded items. The VCA should sell quickly.

You will love it! When I tried it on, the had it on a long 32" round chain.
The model wearing it with the black leather cord looks great! I was actually thinking earlier I could purchase a Tolomeo pendant and wear it that way, on the black leather cord. It would not be so much YG, only the pendant. But then I smacked myself and said nothing else would match the pendant. I have sworn off YG... I already got rid of all my YG except for a sentimental locket. I am like you in that I only keep pieces I love.

The Tolomeo is a striking piece, but equally important, it is beautifully made, so artistic.
I'm not sure if you travel a lot, but if you do and get to Paris... go to the Louvre, take a photo of yourself wearing your Tolomeo next to the Louvre's Tolomeo. That would be such an cool photo. :biggrin:

You know how jewelers will say when you buy a high end piece... "this is a museum quality piece."
Well, your Tolomeo is not only a museum quality piece, it IS in a museum, the Louvre! :nuts: :heart:

I am so so happy and excited for you!

For those of you on the fence about TSC pieces, Bloomingdales has a promotion through the weekend where for every $300 spent, you get a $100 gift card. There is no cap on the number of gift cards.

So, I special ordered the Tolomeo and I will get the medium-sized Bee Amulet with the gift cards. I also opened a Bloomies card, so I’ll get another $250 off.

I should receive the pendant by the beginning of December.

The gift card sale offer is fabulous, but I am not seeing that on the site! Am I missing it or do you think that offer is over?

Very excited to see your new pieces! I totally agree about getting fewer pieces that I love!

I found out about the sale when I went to the bricks and mortars store in Chevy Chase, MD store. To my knowledge, it goes through Sunday.

Exciting! The Tolomeo pendants are beautiful in person! I look forward to seeing your pics on arrival. :flowers:

Got a ribbon chain at Bloomies…let’s see if they let me stack the power points and promo code

Nice! :smile: Wishing I had a Bloomies nearby so I could easily browse!

Regarding your Collina ring, I'd love to hear your thoughts on sizing. Did you size up from your regular ring size? I'm thinking with that style one would need to. Also, does the granulation "ball" at the underside feel annoying? I don't remember ever trying any of her rings with that detail, so I'm trying to imagine. I leaning towards collecting several of her moonstone pieces, and I love your ring as well as the oval style ring.

Yes I would say size up because it does feel tight on my finger even though it’s my size. I actually don’t feel the granulation ball at all. I wear the ring on my left index finger. The oval style is really nice too! Maybe you can do a virtual consultation with TSC first?

Thanks, so helpful! :flowers: So interesting regarding the ring granulation ball, have always wondered. Yes, good idea regarding an appt. I just saw that link recently on the website.

Any time! Would love to see your pieces once you get them. I would love to get moonstone earrings and bracelet too but so pricey!

I love the moonstone bracelets and earrings, too! My current moonstone shortlist: Large Amulet, Classic Oval or Collina earrings, and Classic Oval or Collina ring. But, need to see in person to be more certain, and to be sure of sizes. Then will need to decide which to get first. :smile:

Here’s a pic of the ribbon chain I got recently…am a little worried I should’ve gotten the 24” rather than 18” for versatility but I do like how well it complements the amulet. I also tried the classic round chain and thought it was too thick.

That looks beautiful! :heart: I think the 18" chain length looks perfect with that size amulet. Thanks for sharing. :flowers:
