I am loving my OEC/mine cut ring!

1st a picture of the teaser back view.

Is this a new piece? Did you return your sapphire halo?

 

[jewelz617]

So unfair!!! More, more!

 

[Diamond*Dana]

I like what I see so far...

 

[zhuzhu]

Sorry I got distracted earlier.
Upgradable, No I could not return the sapphire ring as it is too beautiful and I have nothing like it! Here is the 2 rings side by side.

 

[zhuzhu]

I call it my "old world glamor" ring.

 

[zhuzhu]

Here they are side by side again.

Candle-lit beauties.

Ooooo LOVE it!!!! If you don''t mind sharing, where''s it from? I''m looking for some good old cut vendors as I''m considering an OEC for my future e-ring. Both those rings are stunning!

Here is a profile view comparing 2 rings. You can see how the all-diamond ring has smaller table and higher crown than the newer round cut of the sapphire ring. Hopefully you can also see the vintage gallary on both rings. The sapphire ring has the most beautiful basket and side details, whereas the all-diamond ring has very cool "bridges" that contains a perfect round hole in each one of them!

[PumpkinPie]

wow - that new one is pure glamour

Of course not!

The sapphire-circled diamond ring is from Dover Jewelry (doverjewelry.com). I have purchased from them for a few years now and they are trust worthy with great customer service.

The all-diamond ring is purchased from a private jeweler. She has a Ebay store (cbhpllc) and is a wonderful person to work with. She answered all my questions and responded to my inquiries thoroughly.

Old cut diamonds and jewelries are very addictive. So be warned!

Lovely! It has great finger presence.

 

[DiaDiva]

Gorgeous! I love both rings but especially the all-damond halo one.

 

[lasscreative]

2 very nice rings, you are a lucky girl!

 

[lknvrb4]

Very nice!

 

[Loves Vintage]

Wow! It''s gorgeous. I see rings like this every now and again on eBay and am always tempted. You found a very nice one!!! I love that you call it your glamor ring. It IS! Do you know how big the center stone is? I''ve also seen smaller versions of this ring, so curious about size. Yours definitely has presence!

 

[oddoneout]

Both rings are amazing.

 

[princessplease]

SOOOO pretty!!

 

[wsblue430]

Gorgeous!! Such stunning rings!

 

[gemgirl]

Lucky lady, two beautiful rings! They are unique enough to keep both .

 

[MrsBettyBoop]

Yummy "old world glamor!"

 

[legra]

Both of your rings are gorgeous! Enjoy them.

It looks like you should photoshop the rings toasting marshmallows

They are both stunning!

 

[LaurenThePartier]

Wow, that is just stunning!

 

[Tuckins1]

Lovely!

 

[nice ice]

Wooowwww~ they both get my attention! Love the oec

 

[zhuzhu]

Thank you! i feel like a lucky girl indeed!

The antique cuts, especially the old mine cuts, have completely difference personality compared to the round diamonds. I love looking at its funky irregular facets and get amazed at unexpected flash of color lights here and there!

 

[kittybean]

Wow, it definitely looks old-world glamorous! That setting is beautiful--as is your lovely stone. I''m so glad you kept the sapphire halo ring; I love that ring and aspire to someday own one like it!
