A Jaffe 2-Prong

jilliancw Rough Rock Total Posts: 2 Last Post: 3/21/2009 Member Since: 3/20/2009	Hello, I joined this forum to ask if anyone knows anything about an A Jaffe 2-prong ring. I tried it on in a local store, and absolutely loved it. However, I cannot find it anywhere on the internet. The model number is MES119 (or at least that's what they wrote down). I checked the A Jaffe site and there is no image of this design. Does anyone know what I am talking about and does anyone have a picture? I want to see a picture of it, but I also want some opinions on durability of this design. 2-prongs make me a bit nervous for my 1.25. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!! Jillian

Jillian Hi, Take a look here: http://www.pearlmansjewelers.com/jewelry-designers/a-jaffe-jewelry/rings/31II1/ I haven't seen a 2 prong A Jaffe Ring before.... I have seen a four prong ring that has double prong's from each one of the prong.

I hope someone finds a pic, because I would love to see it! _______________________________ "Women are either goddesses or doormats."

I'm not sure this is the same as the Jaffe ring you have tried, but I remember looking at this one a while ago - and also found a cheaper version on the Adwar site... The first is by Varna - and I can't seem to save a picture of it... Varna - click on 'Our Jewelry' - then - 'Europa' - it's on page 1 - bottom right ring The Adwar ring is here... Adwar neither of these may be close to the Jaffe ring of course - but both are gorgeous - sleek and contemporary home is where the heart is

One good whack and the stone could go sailing....I know I couldn't be comfortable with something like that. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "It is also important for the State to inculcate in its subjects an aversion to any 'conspiracy theory of history' for a search for 'conspiracies' means a search for motives and an attribution of responsibility for historical misdeeds." -Murray N. Rothbard, in The Anatomy of the State John Swinton [1829-1901] Chief Editorial Writer of the New York Times (Considered "the Dean of his Profession" by his peers), when asked to toast an 'Independent Press' in a gathering at the National Press Club, circa 1880 "There is no such thing in America as an independent press unless it is in the country towns. You know it, and I know it. There is not one of you who dare express an honest opinion. If you express it you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid... for keeping my honest opinions out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries for doing similar things.... The business of the New York journalist is to distort the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of Mammon, and sell his country and race for his daily bread, or for what is about the same thing, his salary. You know this, and I know it and what foolery to be toasting an 'independent press.' We are tools, and the vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are jumping-jacks. They pull the strings and we dance. Our time, our talents, our lives, our possibilities, all are the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes."

I actually really like the simplicity of the Varna one (partially because I just like Varna rings in general) but I'd still be really worried about the stone staying in there if you had one good knock at just the right (wrong) angle. Beautiful rings though, and such a cool looking style.... _______________________________ "Women are either goddesses or doormats."
