Thank you for the suggestion! Do you have any personal experience with the brand?[/QUOTE]

I have lots of silver pieces. I have necklaces, rings, earrings and bracelets.

I am very much a lover of their designs and have been for many years now. They do have an eBoutique which can be viewed at www.wrightandteague.com

Temple St Clair uses 18k, never 14k. Older designs used 22k.

Other designers that use 18k include John Hardy, Ippolita, Mimi So, Chopard, Bulgari, VCA and Elizabeth Locke.

Vintage 18k pieces are also worth looking into.

Happy New Year, Restricter!

I was in Bulgari over the weekend and tried on the b.zero bangle RG with white ceramic. I was very impressed with their jewelry line.

Bulgari was one of Liz Taylor's favorite brands. They had a few of her pieces on display at the 5th Ave boutique a while back. Wowza! That woman knew bling!

Thank you for introducing me to Mimi So! I love the bumble bee and flower earrings! They somehow maintain their whimsical nature while still exuding elegance!

Ippolita! I love the tone of their gold and the wavy texture to the pieces.

If ur asking stevie for experience, I dont own, but have seen many of the items from Roberto, they were 18kt gold, wonderfully finished but very well made-every piece did have the classic ruby on skin gem & the gems were very nice quality as small as they were-stevie...:D:cool:

I love how Roberto Coin puts tiny rubies on his pieces!

Spinelli Kilkollin - hope I spelled that right! I love how edgy it is. Pomellato , Jennifer Meyer, I love Anita Ko. It's 14kt gold, but if you are sentimental and want something unique, A. Jaffe Maps has a beautiful rectangle shaped pend/ necklace that has a map engraved on it. Maybe where you got married or where he proposed, a special vacation, your childhood home. Where your location is on the map, they put a tiny diamond. They do have other shapes, but I love the rectangle with the diamond border. It's also kinda cool that when you do your location on the computer, you really get to decide how the map will look based on how much you zoom in or out. Come's in white, rose, and yellow gold. They take about 1-2 weeks to make them.

If you like Mimi So but can't handle the price, check out Alex Monroe. He does gold over sterling silver or sterling and his signature bee came before Mimi's.

The map necklace is really innovative and deeply personal! I love the idea! Do you happen to own one?

I've never heard of this brand before. It's interesting that everything seems to be only in rose gold. I wonder what the inspiration for that was. Do you have any personal favorites?

Here is my Map necklace. I just got it for Christmas on Friday- a little late but worth the wait ;) I did front and back, you can also do nothing on the back or engrave it. Because both of my locations were at resorts, Disney World and Cancun, it doesn't have as many actual streets as say my home address would have. I love it!!! I am sick so I haven't even worn it yet, but I can't wait to :smile1:
