thank you blushpeony and ilovegemstones! When I originally planned this ring my thoughts were the blues would remind me of the caribbean and cool waters. But, in reality, I get the same vibe as you both mentioned- more old world. Regardless, I love how the ring came out. I've been waiting for some decent weather to photograph it and looks like it may finally be here, so I'll start a thread on it shortly.

thank you so much Lovinggems,lovedogs, and mochiko42! I had planned on starting a thread with more photos today, but after the rather nasty remarks regarding "so many paraibas" and the quality of them on the other thread I have decided to wait until I am in a better frame of mind. :angryfire:

I am sorry this is affecting what you post. But know you are not the only one to feel this way.
E.T.A. I'm sorry my manners left me alone. So many pretty stones and pretty settings. Too many to name out one by one!.

Oh dear, I hope I didn't contribute to that by my response on the other thread. I too was a little taken aback by that comment and was trying to understand in a balanced way where the poster was coming from. I hope I didn't inadvertently fan the flames instead. I think most of us are working with limited budgets so we have to make a compromise somewhere.. Still, I LOVE seeing all the paraiba on here! I just wish you all lived closer to me so I could play in your jewelry boxes from time to time!! Lol.. :love:

+1 Mochiko! You always are eloquent and said that better than I could have. You definitely were being fair and balanced in the other thread and I appreciated the post there and here :wavey:

No, don't worry- I was not referring to your post at all. I also love seeing all the Paraiba jewelry posted. As a long time member here I just get really annoyed and somewhat saddened by the lack of courtesy and rudeness that is displayed by some posters- usually it is the same ones. :rolleyes: I don't want to hijack this lovely thread anymore and, in fact, I had deleted my earlier comments right after I had posted them, but Rfisher quoted me before they got deleted. So, back to posting pretty gems and jewelry!

Yvonne's gem sale made me realize that I hadn't seen this thread for awhile and seee I missed so many updates.

sapphiremomma - The mahenge cab is goregeous...a nice pink-red cab is on my wishlist..so pretty!

mochiko/pinkjewel - Love the camellia paraiba rings - a favorite combination of mine (and never get tired of seeing).

mtsapphirelovingannie -- I am a fan of Yvonne's hexagon settings too. Luck you to get the rosetta ring! It's a variation of a design she put together for my spess/mint garnets...fun to wear and gotta love the finger coverage.

rfisher --- I so want a hauynite/paraiba pendant :sigh: The mixed gold chain is to die for!!

Hope to see more beauties posted soon :)

Oh...I can't wait to see what you design for it (wasn't it you who also had the amazing paraiba lariat necklace?)
