Bought myself a little pressie

[Maisie]

Its from Barry Bridestock. 1.6 red/pink Tourmaline.

I am sending it to Julia Kay Taylor for setting. She is busy till March so I will have to be patient!

It should be gorgeous, Maisie. I have a soft spot for red tourmaline.

Can you share your design ideas yet?

 

[Bella_mezzo]

maisie I love it!!!!! Way to go getting yourself a pressie

what are your ideas for the setting?

 

[Maisie]

Thanks girls

It is a lovely stone!

I love Coati''s James Meyer ring. Link

I would love something similar either in gold or silver. Not sure yet

I think 2 tone would be fab too. Great minds think alike!

 

[Largosmom]

Ooooh, nice stone!

 

[luckynumber]

Very pretty Maisie! Katiedid has a ring (now called the Katie setting) that JKT did based on James Meyer here it''s soooo loverly!

I think it is lovely! I do not know how it looks IRL but there is soft pastel sheen to it in pictures. Beautiful!

 

[StonieGrl]

Good going!

I think two-tone would be fab for this stone.

Nice pressie!

Ooh I love that stone - congrats! I think YG would look amazing with it - really bring out the color!

 

[Maisie]

Katies ring is lovely! Thanks for the link Pack!

I do love yellow and white gold. How would two tone work? Which way around would look best? White bezel and yellow shank?

 

[Burberrygirl]

The stone is beautiful, I can''t wait to see how it looks set! It''s gonna be fab!

 

[chrono]

Two tone will be lovely for that tourmaline.

that''s my thinking, yes...

(wow, we really *are* on the same wavelength with this!)

Another compliment on a great stone and another vote for your bicolor setting idea. All white for such a gentle color in a gentle outline could be a bit harsh, so I think a bit of goldeny warmth will work wonders there. But I''m sure JKT will do something great, which ever design route you take.

Lovely colour.

 

[Laila619]

That''s a beautiful stone Maisie! I love the color.

 

[Hudson_Hawk]

GORGEOUS!!!

 

[Stone Hunter]

That looks very nice and I think it will look just lovely in a two tone setting! TFS
