    #JOTW Gold bangle with a special diamond...

    You know how it takes a while, years even, to let the pain of losing someone come to a level where you can remember with affection and joy without breaking into tears? Well, my mom died a few years ago and I'm at the point where the loss is not a sharp pain anymore, it's more like a faint...

    #JOTW Ring purchase - no one to share this with

    I just received this ring in the mail this morning and wanted to share with someone. None of my friends or family has any interest in jewelry (especially vintage jewelry). I hope you will enjoy the pictures!

    #JOTW Finally - my ultimate "ticks all the boxes" sapphire & diamond 3 stone ring

    I had been looking out for my perfect blue sapphire to make a three stone right hand ring for years. There were so many criteria on my wish list for this sapphire, which is probably why it has taken so long to find "the one". :lol: It had to be the perfect shade of blue with just a hint of...

    #JOTW Birthday Present Finished! - Black Opal

    So back in March I was presented with a lovely 2.14ct black opal that my husband had purchased. Total surprise when I opened on my birthday, he then gave me a budget to get it set in to a ring. I'm in the UK and we don't have as many choices to get custom and a few people I'd spoken to didn't...

    #JOTW @Rhino does it Again - Elyque Oval - The only Oval!

    Hi all, I have been a PS-r for a couple of months. I want to say thank you for this site. Without it I would have never met @Rhino with August Vintage (AV). I was in the market for a New Diamond and was finding it hard to choose between a Round and Oval, but then I Stumbled upon the “Elyque”...

    #JOTW My Emerald Cut Eternity Band from IDJ 3.0

    After some back and forth, I finally got my ring back from IDJ mid-July [late, late post]! On this post, I was told that my ring would be remade with a slightly different open basket setting (since the original ring was misshapen/uneven). Fast forward a few weeks after I sent the ring back...

    #JOTW A cotton candy pink Mahenge spinel ring from David Klass

    I don’t know how many of you already know this about me but I kinda have a things for pink spinels. I just love them. :kiss2: I started with a Mahenge spinel from CvB, which I am crazy about, but it tends to be more cherry colored (hence her name, Cherry Bomb). I still wanted a straight pink...

    #JOTW Buttercup! Impulse buy OEC, better than expected!

    Oops I did it again. Sorry, not sorry! Meet “Buttercup” 14k ‘bloomed’ gold, circa 1910, with a 5.3mm old cut. Probably an H/I color as this is whiter than Edwina’s official L. And probably an SI for inclusions visible under 60x, but the kozibe prevents anything seen at 10x so who cares, right...

    #JOTW My Handsome New Studs - 1.7 ctw AVRs

    Hi Pricescopers! A wonderfully matched pair of 0.85 N color AVRs on Jonathan's August Vintage Inc. website happened to catch my eye recently. I thought it would be such a shame if they weren't put to their best potential use - milgrain bezel studs! However, I was hesitant about the color; I had...

    #JOTW Blue - Green Aquamarine Dream

    I thought I’d share my newest little lovely since I wouldn’t have found it without PS! A few months ago @Rfisher and @Hounddog posted a 10ct unheated aquamarine from Ivy and Rose. I had to have it! I have several aquamarines but none quite this shade and it’s the perfect size to wear on the...

    #JOTW So I Chose a Pear!

    I had the dilemma of choosing between an Emerald cut and a Pear. The Pear won. Happy with my choice as I prefer EC's over 6cts and not wanting to go down to a lower colour than an "H" at this point in time. The setting converts to a pendant. 4ct HSi2.

    Custom ACA Pendant

    I had a 1/4 carat version of this from a national jewelry store and recently lost it. At first I thought I'd have Whiteflash make me another one with their 1/4 carat ACA melee. Then Brittany at Whiteflash suggested this setting and a larger diamond. She didn't have to twist my arm especially...

    #JOTW Anyone else like a good vacation piece?

    I can’t be the only person here who likes to memorialize vacations (big ones, not a rando weekend away) with a special piece. We went to Greece for a family wedding that conincided with my 40th. I went to the famous Byzantino Jeweler in Plaka Athens for a ring. They are known for hand made...

    #JOTW Unheated 9.5 carat sapphire ring

    I am on a roll today with SMTB. I have also posted this ring last year in the vintage forum. This is an unheated 9.5 carat Burmese sapphire. It was my grandmother’s, but I am not sure if it was given to her or inherited. The style is Art Deco so I think probably given to her or purchased by...
