Wow, this is really amazing.
I just saw this on the front page of Etsy:
The price tag on the above necklace is $1350. Below is a watermelon tourmaline and sterling silver necklace I have had in my shop for $50. I know there are some differences. The watermelon tourmalines seen above are thicker, but they have tons of fissures (cracks), not just flecks, full on cracks across the stones. My necklace only has 6 stones, hers has 7. She has also set them in 14K gold and the chain is gold. But $1300 more?? Watermelon tourmalines are expensive stones and I'm sure that bezel-setting each one in gold was time consuming. Although it will also be harder to repair should one of the rings on the bezel break. Anyway, my mind is just boggling over this and I'm thinking out loud.

Thanks so much girls! Betsy, I appreciate the tag!
I love your photography, what kind of stone is that in the background? Beautiful necklace too.
Thank you, it's just a paving stone. One side of it is gray and sparkly, the other side is what you see here. I'm not sure what kind of stone it is.
Otworzyła salon kosmetyczny i myślę o tym gdzie kupić zestawy startowe do robienia paznokci żelowych, frezarka do paznokci rossmann i stolik do manicure z pochłaniaczem pyłu. Gdzie najlepiej szukać takich sprzętów? Czy możecie polecić jakąś hurtownie? Czy warto zamawiać przez Internet? Wybrałam sklep www.newfacebeauty.pl, lampa-lupa.pl/. Salon w Warszawie, zapraszam wszystkich. Rabaty dla klientów z bloga)
