OMC--you never cease to amaze me with your collection. Seriously...I love every bit of it.....

My favorite in this group (aside from the DBL earrings--LOL) is the moonstone necklace--that is UNBELIEVEABLE!!!

I want to go antiguing with you.... Wink

I am not sure how she decides what to wear everyday.   The collection is very nice.  I am jealous.

I love, Love, LOVE the pic of the cubs, especially knowing Dad's tongue was also out.  They are just the most precious of the collection, OMC.  (I didn't think I'd ever admit it, but I am so glad our own young master is back with us.  I think Ryan has a new appreciation of for me, and my way of life, as well as my occaisional excesses (especially with SLURPEES!))

Even with the Moonstone and the pearls, my birthstones, depending on to whom you place the question - can't compare with the cubs.  

I love the diamond and pearl choker!  If I didn't have Tahitian pearls in a princess length from my DH, I might be sorely tempted to beg to borrow it when I get married.  What a wonderful bridal piece!  I hope DD decides to wear that at her wedding or even at her debut.  It is absolutely to die for...And the Mikimoto ring!  Huge sighs here!!  Diamonds and pearls!  My absolute favorite combination.  

I will have to beg you to work with me someday on designing a clasp for my pearls that is better than the 14k filigreed bead currently in place  - I'm sure you'd have some killer ideas.  And that could be used as an offset as well as the closure.  I never open them anyway.  They fit just fine over my head.

The architectural rings (I think I've spelled that wrong) are just killer, even though i am not a red gem person.  

I am so sorry to hear the earring was lost and run over.  I would have cried for days! What a stroke of luck to have found it again, even if it is sadly wounded!  But it doesn't surprise me that DBL stands behind the pieces they sell in the least.  I would have expected no less.

Thank you so much for sharing these unique pieces with us.   It is always such a treat to visit the Coyote's Den.

The carpark fiasco story reminds me of David's tale about a friend of his who lost a big yellow radiant when he was playing football in Central Park. Who here hasn't thought about going to look for it? Grin

So glad you found that earring OMC. I'd hate to think that one was lost somewhere!

Oh, and I forgot to say last night, the cubs look delightful! THey are supercute and they look like a lot of fun!

It's always a total treat to see your collection, OMC. Much better than having to search around the internet finding gorgeous and unusual pieces for a visual "high."

Let's see -- today I'm in love with that incredible moonstone pendant and the exquisite pearl/diamond necklace.

As always, thanks for sharing!

Oh, thanks for sharing, OMC!  I'm so sad about your DW's beautiful earring, though!  I hope David can fix it better than new!

I love the moonstone, too.

Hm. I was looking for the other thread where Trinkette, Jen, Mikla and a couple of others were kindly giving ideas about sapphire earrings, and I can't find it. However, look what is finding its way to us later in the summer...




Photos courtesy of David - more to come once I get my mitts on them in late July!

 yahoo  Now that is a pair of earrings!  I don't think I'd ever take them off.  I love, love, love the baguettes connecting the rounds and around the sapphires.  It's a beautiful match, OMC.  One of my favorites of your pieces, I'd have to say.   Roll Eyes

A-hem. I actually think the bits connecting the rounds are (very) highly polished platinum... but I made exactly the same mistake!!!

Thank you for the kind words, Mikla.

Let's not forget the backs......
This is a pair of earrings that , even if the stones are facing inwards- is still mesmerizingly beautiful.



OMC led us down paths we'd never have thought of.
He basically prompted us to make, and assisted in designing , what really is- museum quality jewelry.


I've never been prouder of the "ROCK" stamp........

What a fantasic set, OMC!  You and DBL have outdone yourselves.  Please, please promise an ear and hand shot of Mrs. OMC when they finally come home to you.  Those earrings are almost unbelievable.  Stunning.

I KNEW these would be magnificent! OMC, David, you should both be proud. Such extraordinary design, craftsmanship and attention to detail.  Thanks for sharing this wonderful project.

Gosh, I REALLY need to find my flying hippo...

Those are really nice!!!!!!  I cannot wait to get ear shots!!!!!!  I cannot wait to show my man your wife's moonstone necklace.  He seems to really be drawn to them.  He will love it.

I am sorry to hear about the earring!  Like everyone else, I am surprised you found it.  If I ever lost an earring, I would NEVER find it.

Well! They turned out nice, didn't they?! To say the least!

Phenomenal might be the word for them. The sapphires really are gorgeous and the design is spot on, it really works. Craftsmanship is impressive, too.

I'm looking forward to seeing earshots, and a side by side shot with the ring that inspired the design.

Thank you all - I promise earshots and comparison with the ring as soon as I get hold of the earrings, which unfortunately won't be until late July/early August...

I think you should have used sapphires that were a little brighter blue. (That's a joke, of course.)

Well, the problem was that the brighter ones had all these wires and batteries attached. For a pair of earrings, I thought it would have been inconvenient.

Mrs. OMC would have looked like an escape surgery patient. We wouldn't want that.

Well? Do you have them yet? What do you think?

If you hate them, I'll take them! (Bet you don't, though.) Grin

Well, you can try, Jen, but I think DW would put up some resistance.

Sorry again for the delayed posting; we went to pick the kids up at grandma without knowing that ADSL and 3G coverage aren't quite making it there... so I'm recovering from an avalanche of email. Photos tomorrow - weather permitting (it's 36C / 97F and feeling hotter; not a great weather for doing anything except staring at a fan)

I can't wait to see them. The teaser pics were stunning. Does Mrs Coyote love them?
