They have beautiful things! Has anyone purchased from them before?
Many things have lab reports also which is wonderful and expected for such
high ticketed items.

This is lovely....rubies, diamonds, emeralds, blue sapphire, and alexandrites! yum!

I follow them for the drooling, but imho a lot of stuff is so overpriced for what it is. But still fun to oogle at :)

Err not sure if it is just me, but some of the metal work (for example the last ring) really feels poorly constructed. I am left staring at it cross eyed feeling like it was a cheap job, with prongs stuck in every which direction.

I'm not a perfectionist and usually when I find inspiration its the overall design of the ring and the feeling it gives me with the stones. I'm a colored stone lover!
The prongs could be poorly done but I think theyre all oh so gorgeous!
As antique pieces I'm also sure that some of the prongs could be bent as rings get bumped quite a bit.
Hopefully you enjoyed at least one piece from this thread. (:

The seller has beautiful images and amazing examples of period pieces. I love the design of the first and last rings especially, how they climb down the finger. The last one reminds me of a gem bouquet!.

The rings are so delicate, organic and graceful. Makes me wish I had long slender fingers to enjoy a piece like those lovely Belle Epoch rings.

I actually really like the sapphire, the mixed metals look really pretty. I have been staring at something similar here -- will never aford anything on this site but can still dream about it right :lol:?

Love seeing these. Just the most perfect bit of holiday candy.
The vendor has exactly what I want in an antique signet ring, but the prices :wall:

That said, they DO have the stuff dreams are made of : )

Anything turquoise stands out for me from the PILING (noted) - if not nearly as much as her ferociously frank mode :whistle:
