This is my latest ring to get set! It’s a 6.5mm chrysoberyl from Barry Bridgestock set by Patrick Irla from Etsy. He was so friendly and easy to work with! It was a very pleasant process and I’m super happy with how it turned out. It is silver with an 18k gold hydrangea flower. I also purchased his little bee stacking ring that is also silver with 18k gold bee. I love it! The bee is adorable! Overall, the two rings were just under $400.

This is so adorable! It’s like a bee and the honeypot!

I have also something to post here, my mahenge garnet ring is finished.
The stone from Earthstreasury was 195 $, the setting is about 320 $ inkl. everything, and to set the stone cost me at about 55$. So altogether it was really a nice and cost-friendly project.

I love the milgrain and the floral-y look of this ring! :love: I have a round grossular garnet that I wanted reset and this may be the setting!

Here's my contribution to this thread! It's a round purplish-pink sapphire set in a platinum setting. Got the stone on LT and managed to find the setting on ebay within a week or two. Of all my RHR, I wear this one the most. If my husband and I hadn't gone with a diamond for our e-ring, I would have wanted something like this. Soooo happy we were able to make this happen a few years later!

Thanks for the compliment about my slim hand! Although it's kind of biting me in the butt now that I'm trying to resell some of my rings :lol:

I received this ring a little over a week ago! I love how it came out! Sunstone cut by PebbleSprout & set by Sam Woehrmann. It’s 1 of 3 in a ring stack I’m having made by Sam. The individual rings will all be well under the $1250 cap of this thread but all three together might be a wee bit over. They will also be able to be worn alone & still look good.

@Hivona this Sam http://www.iamthatsam.com/shop-rings? His stuff looks great, and much more luxurious than 1250!

Yes that’s him! He was so friendly and easy to work with! My ring’s bezel is in gold but the band is in silver. A gold band would have raised the price significantly & I didn’t feel it was worth it. The two tone metal works well with the body color & Schiller of the stone I think!

Thank you! The seller described it as "neon" and I was like, yeah that's what they all say. Then I opened the package and went all :-o:love::dance:

It’s incredible and very rare. Most of purple sapphires and spinels have a bit of grey which I don’t see in yours at all. Enjoy it in good health!

Can I get a full hand shot? Curious because I may be able to do something similar with a purple garnet and OECs I have

Hivona, I love it! It’s so sleek and modern. Congratulations!

Yay!! My first love in colored gemstones was a shiller sunstone from Oregon. So happy to see you posting your pretty ring!:appl::appl:

By chance did you buy that sapphire off LT from me, Desertrose? It don't remember who I sold it to. If it was, I'm so happy that you are enjoying it and that it has such a wonderful setting! Couldn't have imagined it any better!

Hi, Desertrose! Yes, that was me :D I'm so happy with the sapphire. Thank you for that. And you have so many other pretty things listed on LT. Wish I had more funds. Sigh.

My new stacker from Yvonne features an emerald cab and two hauynites set in platinum silver. Total cost was about $460 :) I even have a leftover emerald cab to use in another project!
