Veronese Jewellery

[ohnonotshoppingagain]

I was sitting here tonight just thinking about past brand ambassadors we no longer see, and wondering why.

I used to so enjoy tge Veronese hours with Gina, she was utterly charming.

I wonder what happened.

 

[SUPERCOOLWILLOW]

she came back quite a few times but the range just never regained its popularity & just before the pandemic it ended

I have a bracelet from the range.

I remember her. Isn't the gold plate on silver we get the same sort of thing as Veronese

 

[Bea Frugal]

There are so many defunct jewellery brands some of which were really lovely. The Asian lady with her silver, southwest silver, a pearl lady, some Israeli designs and loads more. They were nearly all foreign brands whereas Simon Wilson ploughs on forever with his glitzy offerings that people can’t seem to get enough of. It’s a mystery.

Yes, gold plating, I think 18ct? And silver under it. I know the bracelet I own, the colour is yellower than any real 9ct gold I own.

I used to enjoy the gold hour, fine jewellery with Jan ?? Surname escapes me.

 

[Bea Frugal]

Springer! She was knowledgable but I found her dreary. In hindsight she was a lot better than some of todays numpties.

 

[Tuppence]

Yes, that's it Springer

I still have a pair of Veronese diamonique earrings. They are so pretty. And a ring in silver.

I miss all the different jewellery ranges QVC used to do. Now it is diamonique, of which I do have a fair bit, and not that much else. Although it is far better for my bank balance.

 

[donna255]

Yes, Ann. I remember looking for a simple sterling silver bracelet and QVC had nothing apart from Diamonique. Reason I looked on QVC is jewellers shops etc charge an arm and a leg for even a light weight silver bracelet.

oh Simon Wilson’s bling has always mystified me, never liked a single item.

 

[donna255]

I only ever like the little fairy pins he did many years ago.

 

[boffy]

I bought a large "bow" hairclip its about 4 inches across. Its gorgeous with baguette stones and a rhodium plate.I have had it for years

 

[ArticMule]

Years ago he did a trio of skulls with flames behind them (broach) I loved it but dithered about buying and the gunmetal option sold out. Years later I found the multicolored one on eBay and bought it. Wear it loads but still regret not getting the tun metal colour way. Not everyone thing but makes me smile like a child inside lol

I bought a long gold-plated silver Veronese chain the same size as the chain of my security pass, so I was going to use it for that. But it was so nice I never did, so it has never been worn.
