[quote=Anonymous]I'm one of the PPs who trashed the Alhambra pendant necklace so I guess I owe you my 2 cents.

I have't bought much fine jewelry new and I definitely wouldn't buy any new 'recognizable' designer jewelry as I think it's generally loud/tacky. I also wouldn't wear a LV bag or other obvious logo. I do love and wear my grandmother's Bulgari and Cartier pieces but none are immediately recognizable as those brands. I admit to wearing a lot of Tiffany (heart tags, etc) when it was cool from middle school through college but I wouldn't do it as 40 year old.

I've had quite a few pieces of heirloom fine jewelry restyled by local jewelers. It's a surefire way to get a stunning piece that is meaningful and unique. Of course, not everyone is privileged enough to inherit jewelry. My family has used both Pampillonia and Boone and Sons (Bethesda and Friendship Heights).

I love buying antique/vintage pieces, especially Victorian and 60's pieces. I bid on online auctions frequently but bid conservatively and only win occasionally. My favorite antiques are a garnet pinky ring I wear daily and a filigree gold pendant necklace.

I'm currently designing a 10 year wedding anniversary ring. I'm ordering an elongated cushion cut green lab sapphire three stone ring (with lab diamonds) in yellow gold. I'm ordering from Stag and Finch. Will be about 2-3k.
