your floral key, imo, is WAYYYY more elegant and pretty than the pricier fleur de lis key! don't fall for the price increase...
Thank you! My husband too, likes the delicate design of the floral key more. Fleur de lis is more of a "pile of diamonds" for him, and I prefer we both like the piece. Being frustrated surely not the right mood to make a purchase with, especially pushing by the price increase. :wacko:
I'm planning to visit Tiffany to buy presents for my parents 30th anniversary (probably small rose gold heart key for mom and something (?) for dad) and maybe lapis lazuli bean necklace in yg for myself as a nice summer alternative to my floral key, for now...

Buy the way, do you guys think heart key will be suitable present for a 50 years old women? She wears only rose gold and she never had anything from Tiffany before. I know that she would like the key for its simplicity and distinctive design... There is small oval key in rose gold too (she wouldn't like anything big), do you think which one would be better?

I have the rose gold heart key (in my avatar actually! :graucho:) and I wear it everyday! I think your mom would appreciate anything from you really, though a heart would be more meaningful (imo). it just has that extra bit of 'love', you know? mine was from my bf. :D

here's a better photo:

rose gold goes with heart designs so well! good choice. :p
 
Don't let your mind play tricks on you. You didn't feel that key when you bought it, and it won't sing to you now if you buy it just to get in under the increase. For whatever reason, you had a change of heart. You should never have to talk yourself INTO buying a piece - if anything, you should have to talk yourself out of it (and potentially blowing your budget). If you love something, there won't be any hesitation or second thoughts once you have it.

Personally, I find the yellow diamond pendants irresistible.
 
I did the same thing. I initially bought the mini gold elsa peretti open heart charm, but I just wasn't comfortable with how much it was (I didn't think it was worth it). I exchanged it and got the paloma picasso mini dove charm, and I much happier with my purchase.
So don't get the key. Actually, don't get anything unless you really want it... I understand your frustration with the price increase. But, if you don't love what you are buying, then don't get anything.
I hope that helps!
;)
 
From the keys I like the one you already have (fleur? daisy?), it is the one I would buy. The Fleur de lis is beautiful but I prefer the yg one without gems. And I also like the new Garden collection, but since you have a similar design there is no point buying from this line. Yeah it is tough deciding... I don't think you made a wrong decision returning it.
 
about the price-increase: just imagine how many people now shop because of the price increase.
they spend more money in the end because without the price increase they might have slept over some hurried decisions and bought nothing at all in the end.

Reminds me of the posting in the money talks-forum: tourists get only 1 day for shopping when they are on a group-tour because when they have little time they rush their decisions and buy way more compared to groups who could go shopping every day.

btw: I bought the bean 1 month ago and love it so much! I get lots of compliments, it is shiny, smooth and a perfect piece of design. :smile1:
 
Ladies, thank you all! You really helped me realize I've made the right choice returning the the diamond key, I just wasn't trilled about it anymore for whatever reason, and all I felt was gilt for spending so much for the price that I don't absolutely love. Certainly not the best feeling to experience when you put your necklace on...

I tried to list my old key on craiglist, but nobody was really interested, and it would break may heart to sell it twice cheaper then it cost me. And besides, my husband is very sentimental about all my jewelry, so I better keep I guess. :girlsigh:

I think I'll probably go for jazz round necklace... I've tried it in store, and it was SO sparkly (because diamond are bigger in it), and the bezel shape is so clean and beautiful. It could go from day to night as well. The price for 0,51c Tiffanys diamonds is quite ok too... I'm a bit hesitating because the circle shape is not distinctively Tiffanys..., but others brands pendants just doesn't look that perfect to me... Do you think it worth it to buy it from Tiffanys?

Hmmm, now I'm a bit torn between this one and Garden flower pendant, which is smaller (0,25c), but has nice sparkle to it too...
