Shout out to David! he's awesome to work with.... now onto the sparkly show.... :naughty:

1. Platinum half moon step cut diamonds .40ct F color SI1 with 1.53ct 8.1mmx6.6mm Richard Homer Concave cut Vietnamese spinel. Nice red fluoro and interesting that the dimmer and lower lighting makes the spinel appear redder.. really love that effect and have noticed this with a few other spinels.

2. Five stone with an 1.02 ct L color OEC with EGL USA Report. And the end diamonds are modern round brilliant .31ct E and F color GIA diamonds. Flanked by .97ctw montana sapphires from gemfix.

3. My 12 ct Unheated Montana Sapphire rough from Blaze Wharton cut by Jerry Newman and turned into 3.76ct. approx. 8mm Very Light silk set with 63cts of F color, VS2 trapezoid diamonds, and .25cts of F/G color VS2 tapered baguette diamonds

Re: David Klass Montana Sapphire Five Stone & Spinel Three S

Thank you Ladies!

Both Montana sapphire and diamond rings will be given to my girls....eventually - in hopes for their E-ring or a gift for when they get engaged (That won't happen for a long time... so I get to enjoy these for now) so I needed to incorporate classic design elements that could hopefully stand the test of times (even though my first love is for bezels :cheeky: ) as well has having enough diamonds and both rings to have Montana Sapphires (Thanks to many inspirational rings!). This was an amazing journey for the four ring group shot, and is now the end of my CS journey.

I ADORE your setting for the spinel. Where or where did you find those marvelous sidestones?

Hi Jereni, Thank you!

the five stone Montana sapphire diamonds and the spinel three stone sidestones were all sourced by David. He would find the side diamonds and take pictures of them for me and put them all to show how I liked the proportion.

You have such a stunning collection. Such beautiful stones and settings that truly complement the stones. I can imagine you are truly enjoying your collection. Every single ring is a dream ring. You have such excellent taste! I wish I could go stone and setting shopping with you.
Thanks for sharing the pics. I enjoyed the progress pics of your Montana.

Just gorgeous, all of them! Love the red of the spinel, but my fave is the 5-stone. Montanas really are set off beautifully by diamonds. Your girls will have some hard choices to make!

OTL- thank you! the Yellow diamond ring was made by CvB and Caysie was a delight to work with, She does super thin bezel/milgrain for sure! I love your collection! So many beauties!

Virginia :wavey: how are you? Thank you for stopping by

SparkliesLuver- Thank you! haha.. sometimes I feel like I have more than two girls already... How is your project coming along? any closer?

Acinom! Why thank you! It means a lot coming from you, since you have amazing pieces from these master jewelers and your French Cut ring is TO DIE FOR :love: I am hankering for something French cut... because it is square, and I like square shaped stones with big bold flashes... Ooh I how fun would that be... but alas, I am now done with my CS journey :(sad luckily for me, I only have a few rings to pick and choose to wear each day, but you have some tough decision :cheeky:

JewelFreak- thank you! my dds, have picked out which five stone ring they want to have, one really likes square shaped and my other is all about rounds, but they have some long years ahead of them, though whenever I wear one, they always point out that "its my ring that mom is wearing...lol"

I'm sure you do! I only have one, but he's a red-head so he keeps me on my toes. :naughty: My project has been slow, but I'm also asking a lot; I realize it's a tall order. I have some great people keeping an eye out for me though. Thanks for asking.

Well, you could totally have DK make you one now too! I love it with my asscher spinel/baguette ring.

Do you have an entire collection pic? What bands do you have left? I know you've sold a lot lately...
