At the antique mall

[RRfromR]

Guys, you inspired me to go to my local antique mall. What do you think? The emerald diamond band is $260 and the diamond band is $350. Cameo is $220. All solid 14k gold.

Oh all pretty @RRfromR, are there any hallmarks or makers marks on the diamond ring? It looks very well made.

Also remember you can make an offer, especially if paying with cash, worst they can say is no!

 

[RRfromR]

@YadaYadaYada I'll ask about cash. Look at the side of the ring

I like the setting the cameo is in, but the carving is not fine and I think that would drive me crazy to look at.

The diamond ring looks nice on your hand. Do the stones look clean?

Any top shots of the emerald band?

Like the diamond ring. Good find!

 

[YadaYadaYada]

Yeah, that diamond ring is pretty.

I really like the diamond ring and the emerald and diamond ring!

It looks like a nice stacking band! Are the stones fairly clean? If so, seems like a nice price.

Not an expert, but the saturation and evenness of the emeralds make me think they might be lab-created. Still, that’s a pretty band and that seems to be a nice price.

If you get the diamond ring, get thee to a jeweler to get those prongs checked!

I agree with @lala646 on the cameo. The setting is pretty, but you can do better on the cameo.

Update: got the diamond ring for $336 including tax. The emerald band was pretty generic and also big, so I would have had to spend $ on sizing. @VRBeauty , will do. Emeralds were genuine, the guy running the booth is a GIA with 36 years of experience.
Thank you all for helping! Maybe I'll get the courage to visit a pawn shop next lol.

Your bravery was rewarded! Sweet ring.

Pretty ring!
Now you must stop in there frequently to see what new items pop up in that booth!
