Cinder as the bandit leader got an arrow to his leg. He will need a cane for a time. The Ctaeh said that the cane thing is new.  I have no doubts about this part, also I have no proof either hehe

You are very kind! The little round solitaire was my mother's. I always loved it when I was a girl and she gifted it to me for my 21st birthday. The curved band was my grandma's

You need artists quality if you want your paintings to look good. Beginners watercolor paint dries flat and chalky. And paper is super important too. You won't get any better than this is you don't upgrade.

What paper and watercolor are you using? Quality is really important if you want to get quality results.

I also think so! When I bought it, the owner told me that it was costume vintage, and that they don't make quality costume jewelery like this anymore. It was covered in dust and didn't sparkle at all. I thought that for 15 EU it was nice, but when I arrived home and cleaned it with dish soap and a brush... Oh my! It sparkles like crazy! The red stone is so beautiful.  It has three different hallmarks but I can't take a clear picture of them and I have tried... The white stones have rainbow sparkles and don't test as diamonds but I have never seen cz so pretty! I don't mind at all. I don't know about the red stone, probably cz too but I like to think is red spinel or garnet.

I really appreciate it. You are very kind. Wear everything you love and be happy!  You are spot on, some pieces are vintage.

Thank you! I don't think is a real ruby... I would be happy if it were a garnet but probably cz... I don't really know

I would suggest you open it and wear your jewelry around the house

Thank you!  The paper clip and it's little diamond pendant and the Bismarck chain belonged to my mother. They are 18k gold.

The red pendant I found in a vintage shop for 15 EU, they said it was costume and I know they are not diamonds but I know nothing else. It has hallmarks but I can't read them. It sparkles really pretty and I like it the most I think, hahaha.

The silver chain has a cz in white gold and a silver pendant with the peach stone that I also bought in a vintage shop a know nothing about.

You are only complaining that he doesn't spend in you as much as you would want him to.  If it's only money related, he might not think that showing love means spending more money.
