I first heard about it from starryeyed after my ring was dipped with contaminated Rhodium. She''s got some pieces, but never did post them.

I've seen it used in rings with rubies. Can't say I'm a big fan of the look.

ETA here is an example http://www.shopnbc.com/product/?familyid=Y80918&storeid=1&page=LIST&free_text=black%20rhodium&itemsperpage=99&track=-20101&cm_re=SearchList-_-N-_-N

I''ve seen it on stacking bands - a small jeweler where I used to live carried them. I don''t care for it, simply because I like the metal to enhance the fluidity of the setting rather than provide for contrast. Also, it looks a little costume-y to me, and my taste is for fine jewelry to have a different look than costume pieces. My new stacker has yellow rhodium dipped prongs, and so far I like it, although I have read reviews where people said it had the potential to rub away.

Count just go with black ceramic carbide if you like the look. From what I understand it lasts forever and is cheaper too!

I really love the Frank Gehry Torque stacking ring in "black gold" from T&Co. I don''t know if it''s black rhodium plated, but that would make sense...I was wondering what they would use for it but haven''t gotten around to asking. Depending on the piece, I think it could look either stunning or blah. Did you have anything specific in mind?

I seen a ring at my local jewelers it was rubies and diamonds, not alot of them, but the had the lack rhodium finish and I got to admit I really liked it, I think it depends on the piece, I think it would look better on some the others.
