Usually it would be your mother who would give you jewelry, but I think it would be nice to switch things around. The Aurora earrings are perfect because it’s in a way, traditional fine jewelry but with a cool twist.

I just don’t know about the shark’s teeth, but my dad is dead, so I guess it is a mute point. I really love the gold Aurora earrings…totally my style.
Love the earrings! The cufflinks would be good if another figure was chosen. I love cufflinks. My dad (like yours) is passed. She has an amazing necklace on page 2 called seeing stars.. and it’s totally me.
