  3. Think pink! These pieces are gorgeous! Love the mignonette earrings…those stones are incredible. Genius, pure genius.

  9. I love the sedimentary rock quality of the rhodochrosite drop earrings. (Is that gem material from “Rhodesia?” I know we don’t call it that anymore, but the name spurred the thought.)

    Pink Opal, never seen that before. I love it as a drop.

    The Clemence ring is incredible. Now THAT’s a beatdown ring for the rest of us. Or, just a knuckleduster.

    I lurve them all!

  10. Am I the only one who knows who Pinky Tuscadero is? And these jewels are quite a bit too classy for her… K

  12. Love the Clemence Ring! Can you show us an action shot? I’d love to see what it looks like “on the hand.”

    Unless you are too damn busy in Paris. In which case I hope your cafe au lait is too hot to truly enjoy with your crossiant.

    Spitefully yours,

    Deirdre

  13. I like the idea of a ring having a secret hiding place inside, kind of like my Roos shoes did as a lad. Velcro tongue pocket to hide the pennies I don’t have in? Brilliant!

  14. Everything looks amazing!
    I’m normally not really into pink, but I love the pink in these designs!

  16. I would email you but I’d be scared shit with the price of gold now-I’m too poor for it.

    But your designs never cease to amaze me… Love every single pink piece here!

  17. I really like all, but the second pair of earrings are gorgeouse.
    Also the ring.

  19. These are all so beautiful Wendy, you sure are a talented gal. If I had to choose, I would go for the Helen earrings-they look like they should be on a member of royalty-they are seriously classy!

  20. ohhhh WendyB — it looks even more fantastic that I imagined.

    Lovely work. And thank you!

  29. LOL was the pig in the shot the whole time? I just now noticed his Royal Porkiness. I hope he had “au bon temps,” as they say.
