1.43 ct Unheated Ruby and Diamond Ring

[athenaworth]

Thanks to the wonderful Fortekitty, who has known about my search for a great ruby ring for a few years, I got this baby yesterday from ebay. I'm pretty excited about it. As my co-worker described it "it looks like one of those rings fancy women wear!" She's so right. The diamond weight is 1.46ct and they're all G-H VS1. It's set in 14kt wg. Right now it is sized 6.25, but I'm probably going to take it in this weekend to get sized.

You know I love this ring!!

 

[Kismet]

So, so pretty! I love that double halo design.

 

[athenaworth]

FK - GURRRL I know you do!

Kismet - I am so surprised with how much I love the setting. I didn't think I would love it as much from the ebay listing, but it's just blingtastic, and I love the prongs. I'm a happy gal.

There's something about a beautiful red ruby in a diamond halo that screams "opulent" to me Absolutely, love this ring and have always admired this style. It's fabulous and yummy at the same time!

[Jereni]

I love it too! Wonderful to get this beauty just in time to rock it during holiday season

OMG just look how this beauty has turned out?!

Really really stunning and screams Royalty!

I remember you thinking about settings and put it together and oh my, this is just a marriage made in heaven! Can you share the name of the setting vendor please?

Enjoy wearing your new lovely but this is definitely not just for Christmas!

Hey, Athena! You're a fancy pants lady now with that "opulent" ring!

It commands attention. That ring is a Power Ring if I've ever seen one - it says "don't mess with AW!" It is stunning and I luuurve it so much when you get new goodies because we can always count on the best photos and plenty of 'em. Now go rock that ring!

Actually, this was an eBay buy for the whole ring. From the listing I thought I wouldn't like the setting as much as I do. I'm so excited about how perfect the whole thing worked out - especially since I almost had a heart attack waiting for the listing to end (hoping nobody else would bid!).
