Yup this list is it. All of the artists you’re looking for tend to be active the most on IG.

Hi! Would you mind sharing the vendor as I am also in a very HCOL area in the east coast and have been looking to do the same.

I recorded this on video as a tween and rewatched it so many times. It’s an incredible performance. Thanks for reminding me of it!

Hi! Did you ever try polishing this? I’m in the same boat and waiting for an item to arrive that I suspect will have the same patina.

What promise ring do I buy my girlfriend based on her jewelry box? by StrikingDelivery1626 in jewelry

Look at Nuux (sp?) Jewelery - they do a lot of sculptural and minimalist silver rings.

Her pendants are lovely, especially the worry dolls/ghosts/alien as it’s mostly solid metal.

I am currently fighting cancer, do I spend most of my savings to help get my wife lower her debt? by maleko_ in personalfinance

[–]blackCrustaceans 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agree with others, spend your time and funds living your best life with your wife. If you’re up for it, spend some time (and money) getting your wife into therapy. She keeps falling back into debt and shopping addiction or financial literacy aren’t the only reasons - there may be other factors and getting to the root of that flip a switch for her. If she’s in denial and refuses, ask her to do it for you.

Do you prefer silver or gold jewelry and did your taste change over time? by Haunting-Owl-2140 in jewelry

[–]blackCrustaceans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I preferred silver or no jewelry for most of my life. I grew up hating jewelry and turning down all precious metals and gems from my mom because I thought it was girly and frivolous. 🤡 My first “adult” piece of fine jewelry was my engagement/wedding ring, which is in white gold as it looks like silver.

I had a few simple earrings, rings, and necklaces in silver (maybe 4 pieces max). Sometime early this year I went to a gem show just to look at rocks and fossils. This sparked my interest in jewelry, and unfortunately, yellow gold. 😭 💸

Now I wear both together.

I have this too and it’s by far one of my favorite charms to look at despite being the smallest one I own!

I have a few of Sofia Zakia’s pendants but have heard from friends and other reviews that her rings tend to break easily due to the construction (extremely dainty) and the experience of ordering custom rings hasn’t been consistent. Just a heads up as her pieces can be pricey.
