So do I win "oddest thread title"?
My light Columbian emerald + pink spinel ring is finished!
Here is a tease before handshots in a few days! It was fabricated by the kind DanielM who was pretty speedy and always courteous.
It's a lightish toned Columbian emerald which is approx. 4.5x8mm (and was my first LT purchase from the kindest woman) flanked by two of Yvonnes 2mm round pink bubblegum spinels set in 14k rose gold.
This ring made by Yvonne was my inspiration but I wanted to do it in reverse! Haha
I think I accomplished that as her spinel is much more tantalizing than my melee but my emerald IMHO stands out much more than her melee So it kinda evens out!
A big big thanks to ALL the gals who voted on my gemstone orientation thread! Voicing a predicament here has always lead me to the most insightful answers and I'm truly happy to be apart of a community that houses other gemstone geeks!
I will always remember this ring, My "Mermaid Bubblegum" ring as an amalgamation of the community; as my ideals when it comes to gemstones have changed so much!
Heres a photo that was taken midway in the process! Ive always found it all so interesting!
Now off to send those promised finished pictures to that sweet sweet woman....
