Anyone have a david yurman ring?  I am thinking about getting one for my "something blue", as topaz is my birthstone. There's one with pave around it (set in silver), but I wasn't sure about the quality.  There is a store, but it's a bit of a trek for me to go on a weekday to try stuff on.  I'd love any feedback from anyone who has tried on or owns a DY ring.  Thanks!

ETA, I did a search, but not much came up....

My sister has a few pieces of OTHER jewelry from David Yurman .. her husband usually gives her one a year (lucky gal). One time, I think on their honeymoon, a new DY bracelet she'd just been given fell off & became lost. It was a total fluke, 'cause she's never had anything like that happen before. She was so shocked she wrote them & they REPLACED the bracelet....just SENT her a new one! CRAZY!

Anyway ... no ring experience ... just a DY antecdote.

I did just see this when I went to their site ... tempting, no?

I like the first one you posted, as well as their confetti ring. 

But yes, the second one you posted is the one I am looking at.  I saw it on someone's hand in carmel in passing, and it looked gorgeous.

There's also an discontinued style that I like...here's a pic.

Great minds ... as the last one I posted was the "confetti" ring for everyone else's sake.

I LOVE the one YOU love. Wow! My FMIL gave me a pretty multi-strand pearl bracelet the other day, that has dangly blue stones of 2 different hues .. I think that's gonna be my "something blue" unless it ends up clashing with my as yet unselected dress

I've been curious as to how your planning is going...

I agree...the square is my first choice, but I am trying not to pay full price.  Hmmmm....

I have several David Yurman pieces that I love, including an onyx cocktail ring.  I have never had a problem with them and I think the quality is top notch.  As far as not paying full price, if you are anywhere near a Bloomingdales, twice a year they have a sale and everything is 20% off.  If you go in and make friends with the salespeople they will generally tell you when the sale is and you can get it then.  That is the only way I know to avoid paying full price on Yurman, and a great deal because his pieces are often excluded from sales.

I have a David Yurman ring- Its a split shank style with an oval blue topaz. I will post pictures soon. I've had it for a year and probably worn it twice and the stone is loose
I bought it at one of the trunk shows they had at a local boutique. Overall I think the workmanship is quite good. The stone itself is incredible.

Thanks, I'd love to see a pic...

I just think they make interesting RHRs.  Now that I have may plain ole straightforward engagement ring (which I do love), I wanted to get something more fun for my right hand.

A girl I know has that exact ring and it is stunning! I would not hesitate to get it, in fact, it's on my wish list when I have spare cash. The topaz in her ring is a gorgeous blue and the metal is substantial, but not overwhelming. Great choice!

I wish you well,

Bridget

Got the ring!  Took a chance and researched a vendor on ebay.  I went last week and tried on the DY ring at the DY store here in socal, and so I am 99% sure it's authentic.  If it's not, it's the best darn replica I've ever seen! 

It's really nice...more substantial than I thought, but still feminine, if that makes sense.   Here are some hand shots!
