Thank you all for your lovely comments!! I can't stop staring at my new pearls!
Frost me - you can delete photos by clicking 'edit post' and deleting out the attachment code. If this doesn't work you can click on 'manage attachments' and delete from there (I can't quite remember how to get to here though).
Thanks JP! Not a great photo but here you go. It's a sapphire from my mother's collection, she purchased it decades ago and I had it set in this simple setting.
Handama, your pearls and your rings together are stunning. I like both the sapphire and tourmaline ring together with your bracelets. Happy pearls to go with a birthday!
