I like this one a lot better than most I have seen. Not only does one see too much Ashanti gold, but it is often not particularly attractive and often not made with any real finesse, soul, or dedication - too often the pieces all look like each other. This one is well above average. More interesting, for one thing. It is almost always possible to understand, in your case, WHY you have chosen an item: one can see your personal involvement in your choices, and as I so often share your taste and sense of quality that makes me feel especially attracted to your pieces (whether still owned or not). Even so, this is not my hottest favourite, even though it is good.
