...it's here! I ordered the setting last Thursday (March 17, St. Patrick's day) since eBay sent me a little coupon and I thought, "I might as well use this!" plus I'd gotten the state tax return deposited the night before.  So, here's the spinel just resting in the jewe2004 setting. Hubby helped take a few photos.

Next to my X-factor. Thanks for everyone's help on this project! Can't wait to get it set and wear it to my graduation in a month and a half.   "See the girl with the diamond ring/She knows how to shake that thing." 由ay Charles |

Re: cinnamon's question: I think the setting looks pretty good--no special lighting tricks used in the eBay photos. I will look at it with a loupe tomorrow; I'm hoping to get it set soon. The diamonds are tiny and sparkly and the setting is very delicate-looking; I really like it. It's not perfect, but for $170? I honestly am not *that* picky. We'll see what the local jeweler has to say, too. I think I'll probably have them appraise it when they set it, too.

Thanks, everyone! I can see how these kinds of projects get to be really fun. Ahhh, the endless array of choices! It's been really fun. Will make a trip to the jeweler this weekend to get this baby set.

VERY nice! I can't wait to hear what the jeweler says about the setting. It seems like more people are ordering from this vendor. The prices seem to be a lot cheaper than say LOGR.

Very pretty...I ordered the same setting myself on 3/17 but needed them to resize the mount to accommodate my stone AND I requested an upgrade to full cut diamonds. I'm glad to hear you are happy with the setting. I'm anxiously awaiting mine which I expect sometime next week.

Hoofbeats, yes, the prices are a bit more reasonable than LOGR, as their prices keep going up. I don't have a comparison for the quality, though, so will need a LOGR to know for sure. knitwit, can't wait to see your version of the ring!! What size stone/type of stone are you putting into it! It will be fun to have a (sort of) ring twin. Since I was inspired by Lauren's yellow sapphire ring for this project, I'm excited to see your version, too!!

Oh my gosh, Rubybeth, I came across your avatar and did a double-take! Your ring reminds me so much of one I have. They look almost identical. Congrats! It looks great on your finger.

Since I was inspired by Lauren's yellow sapphire ring for this project, I'm excited to see your version, too!! My stone is an asscher cut amethyst, 6.5mm so mine will be a bit more square than yours. I kinda thought I might have received the shipping info by now as they had told me 5-7 days to make the ring and 5-7 to ship. I emailed them today asking if they could give me an estimate on a ship date so we'll see.

Hi Rubybeth, here's mine, although I think your setting is more delicate looking. Love your violet spinel!

Dropped off the spinel and setting on Monday to get it set. Jeweler (benchman) quoted me $30 which sounded like a steal to me; he also said 10 days, but I think my phone will be ringing sooner than that. He didn't comment on the setting other than, "It's going to be a beautiful ring." Haven't louped it yet since I can't seem to locate the loupe. Ack. I'll ask when I pick it up. knitwit--in the description, it says you'll get a tracking number, but I never did. All of a sudden, the ring was just *here* so I let it go. I didn't think it could make it to me in less than a week, but it did. Let us know your experiences with this seller and the customization. I'd be very curious... CDN--your ring is so similar to mine; that's awesome! I love that color stone. I very nearly went with the typical blue sapphire, but the spinel was just too pretty and the perfect cut and size for what I wanted it for. And thanks, diamonddana, bling addict, and yingh!
