I got my peridot earrings, but they are smaller than I thought - TopicsExpress



          

I got my peridot earrings, but they are smaller than I thought they would be. I might keep them anyway, but I am not sure. To be sure, I am going to order the other pair they offer in the same size stone , but with a different setting and see which one is more noticeable as I try them on. I will probably just return one of the two pairs of earrings. Obviously, they are not selling this stone in a earring bigger than 5 mm x 7 mm. I even noticed that when I went into a fine jewelry store, I did not see anything as large as what I was looking for. I think I will just settle for what I have ordered and maybe the ones I intend to order next week - one or the other. They both have the same size stone. One might glisten more due to the quality of the stone or the setting, but that is all. I still might like the one that glistens less even. Apparently people cant afford a stone any bigger than this. At least that is what they are selling. I cant afford it either, but if it is my last pair of expensive earrings that I buy, I might spring for the big money. After all, I am not buying diamonds for myself. Diamonds are for married people. I will settle for my beautiful cubic zirconia earrings that I can wear to formal and semi formal events. They were relatively cheap. About the same price or a little more than the peridot earrings. Around $60. I also found that decent sized gold earrings were getting hard to find and the prices were out of my reach for sure after a while - I was lucky to get what I got at discounts while I was fishing for them for months with what little disposable income I had and using my credit. It almost seems like someone was noticing my shopping for gold earrings and after a few months to a year, the prices shot up and I could not afford them any more. I got a couple of really good deals, but that is all. I got a pair of filigree ones in Dura Gold on Amazon, but I lost one of the pair. I am pretty sure I lost it in my apartment - even in my bedroom, but I have not been able to locate it yet. It has been missing for months. I am upset because I really like this pair. I feel like it is a personal gift from my friend, Jeff Bezo, the CEO of Amazon even though I paid for them, I got a good price. I shop for a ton of stuff at Amazon. I think a lot of people do. It almost feels like the guy who owns the company is your personal friend, doesnt it? I do not know him personally, but I got curious to find out who owned the company, so I looked it up. I think Dura Gold is not pure gold, but it must have fillers that make it stronger. It costs a little less than pure gold, but still pretty expensive. It is nice. I know the guy who offered these on the internet is not my husband, but it was nice to offer them - a nice gesture - I really like them. It is nice to know there are people out there who treat you nice when you dont have a husband to do so.
