Re: Emerald Cuts & Asschers - A Collection

Pink spinel in a square step cut. Not supposed to use the A word, right?

AaggHHH! Love this!!

 

[peppermintpatty]

So I did it. After living with it for over a year I had the milgraining added to the side stones. It is so tiny you can barely see it but I love it!

I Love it too!!!

Even if I could afford it, I wonder if you could replace it. Sir, you have immaculate taste.

I'll share my new ring! A Crisscut Platinum band. The center EC is .75, the side ECs are .50 each and 1.25 of baguettes. I love it!

I just bought criss-cut sapphire, nutty for these things. LOVE yours!

My first time on this thread and already reeling from so much beauty, I see your ring. You might have a lovely obsession but I just spent 20 min. staring at it. Past the sheer size and seeming complexity, it's a cohesive use of step cuts. (My obsession.) May I ask, where did the main stone come from and who designed and built this magnum opus?
Judging by your lovely hand, you're too young to remember Liz Taylor but if she'd seen this ring, she would have had one commissioned.

Hi! Thanks for being as obsessed as me! Believe it or not, I had just told my jeweler to let me know if she ever came across a 9x9mm Asscher, and a few days later, she contacted me that a woman getting divorced was selling her ring and didn’t want her ex to buy it for the new girlfriend, she wanted to ensure it went to someone else! LOL I didn’t expect to have to be ready for the purchase right then but it was a great deal for my dream stone so I went for it. It was originally set with the bullets as side stones but I had seen an Art Deco design with vertical step cuts and worked with my jeweler & a designer she uses to pull it all together and make it happen.

PS, Liz Taylor’s square emerald was something to behold. I might be a little older than you think.

Thanks It just got its own thread:

Steptastic!!! - my new 1.59ct Asscher & Tapered Baguettes Ring

There was a very long and winding route to acquiring this asscher :D I first discovered asschers a few years ago when I came across a stunning antique ring in a jewellery shop window. The diamond had intriguing steps and large clipped corners, and even though it was way out of budget and I was...

I would love to get something like this for my Boo. He’s shy and I know he would worry it would call too much attention. I think it’s so handsome.
