Marquise Aquamarine Ring

[Jambalaya]

I saw this marquise aquamarine bezel ring yesterday and fell in love, so I went back to get it today. I love marquises and you don't often find them in gemstones. I also love blue, and I love bezels. So it was just right for me. It was inexpensive, just $130, because the setting is sterling silver and also the stone is windowed, which doesn't bother me at all for this price point. The color is lovely and I just adore the large bezeled marquise look. I've been looking at this exact setting in white gold on the JA website, but could never afford a marquise diamond of this size to go in it. A large bezeled marquise is kind of a dream look for me, so I'm happy!

Enjoy the photos!

Thanks so much, everyone! I don't usually buy inexpensive stones in silver settings, but I thought this one looked much more refined than you usually find at that pricepoint. I think it's the setting that gets me, along with the lovely pastel blue - not too pale - of the stone.

Thanks again for the nice comments!

Jambalaya, it's the perfect size on your pretty finger and the color is perfect on your skintone. Striking and unique.

I've been buying colored stones at Tucson for 16 years and windows on large stones aren't necessarily considered a flaw, and many close right up on setting. Yours looks minimal in the pics. It's a terrific stone and ring.

Enjoy!!!

Beautiful! I love the color of the aquamarine! Looks amazing on you. Enjoy!

Thank you everyone! Azstonie, good to know the window isn't too bad. Generally, I find that if I love a stone, I love it, flaws and all, you know?

Tyty, thanks for the link with the cute bee rings! I might consider those. I have a bee necklace, too.

Catmom, yes they do seem to be making a comeback. With marquise, I believe it's all in the setting. Some of those old Eighties settings with bulky claws gave marquises a bad name, I think, but with a clean modern setting like a bezel, I think they're so elegant. This is the JA setting I always wanted, but of course I always visualized it with a diamond the size of my aqua, which isn't happening. After lusting after this setting for so long, i think this is why I instantly loved this aqua ring. And it was exactly my size, whaddya know!

Thank you diamondseeker, rockinruby and Crystal24k! Yes, DS, it was also my thought that it will be nice for summer. Thinking of getting these too, since I have a $100 discount coupon and they'll go well with the aqua ring and my new lilac cotton scarf: http://www.bluenile.com/amethyst-blue-topaz-earring-14k-white-gold_49856

Congratulations on your new ring. That baby blue color is very restful and soothing to the eyes. It's beautiful. Wear it in good health.

Thanks Pregcurious! I also like those things about it. I'm not usually drawn to inexpensive silver rings but I think this one is special.
