Valentine’s Day Countdown, Day 1: Pink Opal Earrings

February 1, 2012 by WendyB

Valentine’s Day is coming right up. Time to buy something for your Valentine, email your Valentine a very specific “hint,” or just treat yourself! (That last option is very popular among my independent-minded customers.)

Pink gems are romantic, so my first Valentine’s suggestion is a luxurious pair of shoulder-brushing earrings featuring pink opal drops and 1.26 carats of diamonds. They’re named after Helen of Troy and are perfect for a black-tie gala … or the upcoming Grammys or Oscars.

Normally $13,000. Now $8,000 for Valentine's Day. Click to shop.

I found the opals at a gem show and was so entranced by the color that I had to have them for a one-of-a-kind design. Anyone who gets these should feel very special indeed!

If you need help with this or any other Valentine’s Day purchase, email me at wbjewelry at hotmail dot com.

    I loved these earrings the first time I laid eyes on them, sometime last year. Sigh.
