Long term lurker and rare poster coming out of the woodwork here to share some of my antique collection of rings. Thet are all platinum apart from the 5 stone OMC which has an 18k YG shank.

Beautiful collection, decodolly!!! I'd love to see some more close up shots of each one individually --- think you could post some more pics for us??

Love the far left OEC? in the mount with 3 rows of smaller diamonds- that's my favourite!

I second the request for more photos. I especially like the engraved wedding band under the sapphire band and the five-stone.

Thank you very much for your kind replies! I would be delighted to share more pictures with you! I can post a few shots individually and tell you about them in their own post.

I'll start with my favourite, which is a .80 OMC cushion, set it a platinum mount that has two .20 OMC either side and some single cut melee. The shank is made up of carved leaves, with lovely detail. This ring was an absolute steal a couple of years ago. I paid less than $500 on ebay. I took a chance because the sellers pictures were so very poor, but it definitely paid off, and it is my favourite of my collection, and I wouldn't part with it for $5000!! I'll be back later on with the others!

So sorry to keep you waiting ladies! I am awaiting the birth of my baby boy and was yesterday told I will have a c-section next week, so everything has been crazy busy over here!

Enerchi, the OEC on the left of the picture is my latest addition, it is a .80 OEC, SI1, M colour, set in original platinum mount with single cut diamonds, size 3. I am enjoying wearing it paired with my little diamond eternity as it the pictures! The stone has so much life and fire, it is beautiful. Sorry about the dry, sore hands, I am a long term eczema sufferer!

Thanks so much Enerchi! I appreciate your lovely comments. My son was born on October 3rd, he is a darling! C/S went well although I ended up with severe anaemia afterwards so have been very tired, coupled with a newborn!! But settling into a routine now so I am starting to feel like a human being again!

congratulations on the arrival of you little boy! Such an exciting time. (Oct 3, by the way, is a very special date. It was the birthday of both my father and my mother's father, thirty years apart.)

Your sparkly collection is beautiful, too.
