catmom2004 Does the blue look more greyish in regular light? I bought the matching necklace & earrings & were surprised that they only look blue in bright sunlight. Then I bought what I thought was the matching bracelet, except it has lucite links all the way around instead of the gunmetal links this bracelet has. The problem with that bracelet is that no matter what color light

catmom2004 your in, it’s definitely an iridescent teal color, which is very pretty, so probably will keep anyway (I haven’t made up my mind since it was quite an expensive purchase). So now I’m wondering about the similar style bracelet that only has color on the front & gunmetal links.

catmom2004 @justgoingnomad Is one part blue & the other half grey as it appears in one picture above or does the entire link turn grey or blue depending on the light you’re in? That’s how the necklace & earrings I have work; they look blue in bright outdoor light, but look grey when indoors (or probably if it’s overcast) & definitely at night & low light settings. I’m planning to wear them to an upcoming wedding & can’t afford the

catmom2004 bracelet just now, but am still interested for a possible future purchase. Please let me know about the colors & how they look in different lighting. It just frustrates me that sometimes AB makes pieces that are really hard to match up! You might know what I mean. But your bracelet might be a true match to this necklace & earrings set that I do have, unlike the 1st bracelet I already

catmom2004 bought for kaboodles of $$$. Thanks for being so helpful & patient w/ me & my questions. I just don’t want to buy another bracelet that turns out it doesn’t really match either & I hate having to return things (especially pricey pieces) a Seller is counting on it as being sold! It’s just bad Poshmark manners, I feel, which is why I didn’t return the other bracelet. The more I look at it though,

May 28Reply

catmom2004 the more I like it as a unique piece - I haven’t seen any matching pieces to it at all! So depending on your answers, I’ll let you know if I think it will work w/ the necklace & earrings. Did/Do you have a necklace & earrings you wore with it that matched perfectly In style & color? If so, & you still have them, perhaps you can pm me in a Notification with a picture of what they looked like. If they’re

catmom2004 the same set I have, I’m sure you will let me know if the bracelet was/is an actual true match or not. Thanks again & Namaste, Pam

May 28Reply

justgoingnomad @catmom2004 I can't say for sure that it will match your set especially having not seen them. However I looked at your purchases and I think I saw the other bracelet you bought. It is definitely not the teal color. Yes AB has every shade of every color. I think they change just slightly each season to make it impossible haha.

May 28Reply

justgoingnomad @catmom2004 The first two pictures were taken with flash so that's as bright as it gets. from the side it shifts to frosty grey because the color is on the base of the lucite. The metal itself is a darker gunmetal silver so it's not the regular silver color. I was unable to find any official AB images to give me their color name for this shade unfortunately, but I hope this helps.

May 28Reply

catmom2004 @justgoingnomad Thank you. So, let me see if I understand you correctly. It only looks blue in very bright light like my set does; otherwise it looks grey. I fully understand that the rest is a gunmetal color & the necklace has little gunmetal pyramids along the chain & at the back clasp. The pierced earring backs also have little gunmetal pyramids for the catch. So this should match very well. Correct?

May 28Reply

catmom2004 @justgoingnomad Since you can see my purchases, the pictures for the necklace & earrings look like powder blue lucite twists around a center of multiple dark crystals (almost looks druzy). But it does get a darker blue, but not as dark blue as your link appears. But I don’t think I’ll be wearing them outdoors together too often & the 1 colored link is far enough away from the necklace & earrings, it’s probably not noticeable if there’s a slight color difference in indoor lighting.

May 28Reply

justgoingnomad @catmom2004 I am looking at the love notes you have left for your purchases on your profile's about page. If you left a love note then can you give me the date on it so I can verify I'm looking at the right set

May 28Reply

catmom2004 @justgoingnomad So sorry. Are you also able to see someone’s purchases on another site that begins w/ “E”? If so, I bought the necklace & earrings from mykaylamypup. Is their a way to send you a picture of the set in a PM? Maybe I could try that.

May 29Reply

justgoingnomad @catmom2004 I found the seller's page. If you can give me the 12 digit # I can type that in to pull it up and see the listing and her photos

May 29Reply

catmom2004 @justgoingnomad Not sure what you mean by 12 digit code. Is that referring to the item #s - I had to buy all the pieces separately, though just the earrings & necklace from her. Let me check to even see if it’s still on her page marked “sold,” then I’ll look for the item #s & see if they’re 16 digits long. If it’s not the item #s you’re referring to, please let me know ASAP. Thank you so much for all your hard work to help me figure out if this is really the bracelet to the set.

catmom2004 @justgoingnomad & I’ll get right back to you by sometime tomorrow. I’m busy packing & last minute shopping for a weeklong vacation w/ relatives I haven’t seen for awhile & the trip includes a cousin’s daughter’s wedding, but I think I told you about that already. It’s only Monday; the flight out is ridiculously early Thursday morning & I’m bushed already!!!

catmom2004 @justgoingnomad The # for the Earrings is: 154951104969 (though the # on MY earrings was: 154282436106, but at that time my earrings were the only ones in that design she had, so probably assigns a new different # to each pair). The Necklace isn’t listed anymore on her page (though the # for that item was: 154282377722. IDK if it will show to you or not, but it’s identical to the earrings in every way, except the

catmom2004 pendant is larger in size. The necklace chain at one end has tiny silver pyramids, just like the earring backs, ~5 pyramids spread ~1/4” apart & the clasp hooks “onto” (not “into”) the chain right before the length you want by booking around the chain before a pyramid of your choice. Since it doesn’t hook into a link; & the only thing stopping it from falling off are those pyramids. It’s a pretty dodgy way to attach the clasp to

May 31Reply

catmom2004 the other end of the necklace, as I’ve hooked it right before the 2nd to last pyramid & it still ended up on the last pyramid! I’m worried I could lose the necklace entirely. It’s a good thing I’m older & won’t be doing any energetic dancing, as I have Asthma & just can’t exert myself to that extent. But I know I will be constantly checking to see if the necklace is still there. If I had more time & money, I’d consider looking for something

catmom2004 else to wear with my dress, which has both blue & a so much lighter hue that it matches the pendant perfectly (it’s in a snakeskin pattern). Instead, I plan to wear a Pandora bracelet that has silver charms, several of which have blue stones the same matching blue color, or I might switch to my somewhat iridescent Mabe Pearl or a traditional Pearl Jewelry set; I haven’t decided yet). I hope you can see both items, but if

May 31Reply

catmom2004 not, know the pendant & earrings are identical, except in size. The chain & pyramids are bright silver, though, not gunmetal as I previously thought, & the middle of the earrings & pendant also have bright silver crystals, not a dark color as I had also thought. So, IDK if the gunmetal will work with this set or absolutely not. Tell me what you think, please.

May 31Reply

justgoingnomad @catmom2004 it is hard to tell if it is an exact match because her pictures have a different lighting and none were taken with the flash directly on the lucite. I would say they are quite close in shade if they aren't the same.

May 31Reply

justgoingnomad @catmom2004 as far as the metals that come down to personal preference. some people like to mix metals and some dont. being on your wrist that gives some distance between them and in evening lighting I think would be harder to notice

justgoingnomad @catmom2004 for the wedding I would take both this set and the pearls set. you will be gone for a week and will have plenty of time to wear both sets. and that gives you the luxury to wear what you feel like wearing on the day of the ceremony

May 31Reply

catmom2004 @justgoingnomad Thanks so much for your speedy response & advice. I was thinking the same & getting the advice of either my daughter-in-law or some young woman at the front desk as I was thinking I would just take a small sewing kit with me & get her to thread through the links in the chain, so it’s very discreet (clear thread) & knot it several times if I do wear it, that way, it won’t fall off. I just need to be sure I either have a

May 31Reply

catmom2004 needle thin enough to go through the links (don’t think they make needles that thin) or she can thread the clear plastic thread through the links herself & tie a really good couple of knots (~3 knots). That should secure it well & she (or another young woman at the front desk) can snip it when we return from the reception. I’m going to bring very fine & thin pair of scissors (that are so fine, they’re surgical grade from when I

catmom2004 worked in Cardiology at the Med School). I’m sure she’ll be able to snip the knot with ease with these scissors. Then I won’t have to worry about losing the necklace! But I am going to bring the several pearl sets, too, just in case I change my mind.

May 31Reply

justgoingnomad @catmom2004 If you end up with some free time before the actual event I would check with any high-end department store for an extender that has a security clasp on it. They are more likely to have a variety of styles.

May 31Reply

catmom2004 @justgoingnomad I was thinking the same thing, so I called Neiman Marcus, Saks, Nordstrom & our local exclusively high end boutique, Julian Gold, & sent pictures of the necklace to all. They all remembered selling the necklace & earrings, all except Nordstroms, & each of the 3 stores pairing it with a different silver bracelet (not AB, but John Hardy was a popular suggestion). All 3 remembered the problem of not being able

catmom2004 to hook the clasp directly into the chain, & the extenders they sell won’t hook into the chain either. The suggestion from each store to their customers who were adamant on buying it anyway, were told when they asked about the way the chain hooks, that they might want to take it to their jeweler to have them fix it permanently & professionally. They didn’t sell too many of these necklaces, preferring to return all in that style

catmom2004 to the AB distributor) & then all 3 stopped carrying it & selling any more of these sets to customers because the ones who did go ahead & buy them, almost all returned them back to the store they bought from after finding out the jewelers’ costs w/ parts & especially labor made the expense of the necklace sometimes (actually pretty often) more than twice what the customers originally paid for the necklace & so, as I said

Jun 01Reply

catmom2004 almost most of the customers who bought the set either returned the entire set (or at the very least kept the earrings only) after hearing the jewelers’ estimates. I’ll have to take it by my jeweler, too, one of the same high/end jewelers these same ladies went to I’m sure, as there’s only a handful of the very best jewelers in my very large city (in the Top 10 U.S. cities). (The rest of the excellent small jewelers who could have done

catmom2004 this kind of work, the 1st & 2nd generations have passed away & any of their family members who were a younger generation & still in the jewel trade moved to our State’s largest city, which has some kind of gala or another weekly at the very least, but usually twice a week or even more often!). So, I think I may opt instead of fixing the chain that came with the pendant, the most cost efficient thing to do is to have the

catmom2004 jeweler undo a link in the chain (then closing that link back shut in case I decide to sale the set later, I can have the pendant remounted on its original chain), & then sliding off the pendant & putting it on a plain, but just as bright, platinum chain instead (I hate having to try to clean such detailed 925 S.S. chains!), So, I made up my mind last night to go with another blue

catmom2004 pendant & earrings set I forgot I already have. It’s nowhere as prestigious as AB, but it matches well & at least I won’t have to worry about the pendant falling off that set.

catmom2004 “Likes” on possible bracelets that either are AB that look like they’d match well or go with other brand 925 S.S. or rarely platinum bracelets (at least bracelets are easier to clean than necklace chains). So, I’ll look in on you again in February & if I still like your bracelet as a possible candidate, I’ll let you know - if it hasn’t sold by then, which I’m sure it will. This other jewelry set doesn’t have a matching bracelet either,

Jun 01Reply

catmom2004 so I guess I’m still going with my Pandora bracelet with some charms having the matching blue stones. It’s all I can do for now since I only have the rest of today & tomorrow to pack. But I really do appreciate all your help & suggestions. You’ve been invaluable to me for those qualities, but also for your honesty, which is truly appreciated & probably means more to me in a Seller than anything else.

catmom2004 So, I do hope you sell the bracelet soon. Best of luck & good wishes. Namaste🙏 Pam

catmom2004 @justgoingnomad Sorry for the late reply; I’m just now getting caught up on my Posmark Notifications & I wanted to say “Thank you, I did!” I still haven’t had the time to go by a jeweler to see how much of a hassle/expense it will be to make adjustments to the chain of the necklace, so still haven’t decided yet if I’m going to keep this earrings/necklace set I
