Re: Besides your wedding and e-ring, what's your most treasured piece of jewelry?
I have a pair of earrings my Grandma gave me that were given to her by my Grandfather! They are round, filligree like with a pearl in the center!
I also have a pendant & earrings from a great aunt (given to me with "warm hands" a few years before she died!!! ). She chose to give them to me because they are onyx & marquisite....so she thought they would go nicely with the black suits I always have to wear to work!! She just died a few months ago, so I really appreciate having them even more now!!
ETA..........that I forgot that I recently realized I am missing one of the earrings

Mine's the pendant that I had made out of my mom's e-ring from my dad.
Feel free to add pics if you want!
would you happen to have a pic? my mom is deceased and i have her e-ring and want to make a necklace out of it but i am not very creative and have no idea what to do with it.
to answer your question......i have my moms wedding band that i wear sometimes. it was yellow gold and i got it dipped to be white gold.
my sister took the center stone of my Mom's e-ring and had it put into a floating setting necklace- so it's basically a solitare
then she took the actual e-ring setting and dipped it in white gold and added my mom's birth stone - where the diamond was
she had it done at a place in Port Jeff- Ecoline (spelling) across from the ferry
they did a great job

My grandma's wedding band - mom gave it to me on my wedding day. I treasure it more than my own wedding ring and engagement ring.

We just had my great grandmother's e-ring diamond reset into a pendant. That will probably be way up there as one of my fave pieces. It is an incredible stone.

Yup! I went to a few different jewelers because I knew I wanted it set into something, but I didn't know what. Since it's an oval stone, I thought an oval shaped setting would look the best. Image Attachment(s):

Re: Besides your wedding and e-ring, what's your most treasured piece of jewelry?
the only thing I have that was "passed down" is a childhood ring that my mom gave me. it has her initials engraved in it. she's tried to give me some pieces but I refused them. so I don't really have anything like most of you do.
other than my wedding rings, I would say my diamond studs are my most treasured. I wear them everyday. DH has given me some beautiful pieces of jewelry over the years, but they are mostly necklaces which I barely wear.

Re: Besides your wedding and e-ring, what's your most treasured piece of jewelry?
a birthstone ring (blue topaz) my parents gave to me for my confirmation. I recently had it dipped to white gold. It's tiny, but pretty. Amazingly, the setting is the SAME as my e-ring. It has a slight twist. I think that's so ironic and special!

Re: Besides your wedding and e-ring, what's your most treasured piece of jewelry?
When Alex was born, right when I came back from surgery into the room, my MIL came over to me and secretly put something in my hand - in a little satchel was a beautiful antique pink pearl necklace (how did she know I was having a girl?  ). She had bought it while she was traveling in China, and when she got back to Israel she replaced the clasp with a clasp from one of her necklaces given to her by DH's father before he passed away. It was one of the most touching gifts I've ever gotten... I love it.

Re: Besides your wedding and e-ring, what's your most treasured piece of jewelry?
I have 3 rings that I wear everyday in addition to my wedding ring....
1 - a gold claddagh ring with a diamond heart stone in it. I received this from my former fiance before we got engaged.
2 - a silver ring made of my initials JZ. It was in a small black velvet box in a bag of some wedding gifts that we picked up at my IL after our Honeymoon. I asked my DH if it were his when he was young but he said no. When I asked my MIL abouth the ring with Johns initials she said 'but they are your initials now too'. It actually was one of her rings that she gave to me. Her name is Jessie.
3 - a sapphire & diamond gold ring that I got on my Honymoon. I always wanted another sapphire ring sing my moms was stolen so we found a beautiful one in Aruba!
