It reminds me of a CS version of LTP's gorgeous asscher ering! I love it!

 

[loriken214]

I've had this tourmaline for a long time and it is amazing....the cut and color blow me away! Reminds me of the ocean where DH and I spent our honeymoon in the Bahamas.

Dreamy!!!! I just love the color

Such perfection in its simplicity yet outlining the unique octagonal shape. I hope to see your tourmaline bezel set in it soon.

That's gorgeous! I miss my asscher.

 

[GregS]

That Tourmaline is incredible.

 

[loriken214]

Still going through my gemstone collection and sorting out the ones for sale. This is a keeper and I think it will be my forever new wedding ring. The setting is within my budget and I've had the stone for a long time.

What a mesmerizing cut.

 

[cokitty]

Great cut! That is going to be lovely!

 

[pandabee]

That is an amazing stone!!! Would love to be on a beach with water that color right this minute. Great way to remind you of your honeymoon!!

 

[NexivRed]

Oh my. That stone is absolutely beautiful! I just adore that cut and hope to own one someday. I think that ring is the perfect simple way to show off the cut as well. Cannot wait to see it finished.

Lori,
Can IDJ or Etsy (Daniel M, Sally of HOW, etc) set this more affordably?

 

[loriken214]

Great idea......I'm on new meds and didn't even think about DM! I'll contact him! Thank you Chrono!

[loriken214]

I'm thinking palladium in a simple bezel. Any photos that you think might work? I only want to set this stone once!

Getting excited that this might actually happen!

I think the picture fest starts on page 3.

 

[loriken214]

This is one of my most favorite rings....I remember it well!!!!

Chris at ModMetal on Etsy does fantastic bezels as well.

I don't have a vendor to recommend but I think a bezel in a white metal would compliment that blue shade beautifully! Show us pics when it's done! Can't wait...

When I look into it, the deep Asscher cuts—which are so complete and ravishing—are like steps that lead into eternity and beyond

It is lovely when such a amazing gem reminds you of a beautiful time in your life!

 

[NKOTB]

That is definitely a keeper! I look forward to seeing it set, and hope DM or someone can give you an affordable quote.

 

[blingyjules]

Beautiful stone. That setting will really put all the focus on that gorgeous colour and steps.

 

[MollyMalone]

The tourmaline's color and cut is mesmerizing indeed -- and your vision of the setting for it is a wonderful one!

 

[movie zombie]

a gorgeous stone such as this in such a simple, classic, elegant setting will be absolutely timeless!

ps thank you for not making this into a halo ring..........
