That's gorgeous! And so original!

Maybe get it in front of the Colored Stones crowd here somehow...?

Thank you! It's been an amazing ride so far, we have ups and downs like like everyone, but dang if I didn't get lucky in that I have a partner who is willing to change, grown, and most importantly, honestly communicate with me. I see such a lack of that in so many of my friend's relationships that I'm thankful every day for my person. <3

Thank you! I adore it, so much so that I haven't had the heart to send it back yet for the 1/4 down sizing it needs. I just lose a little skin off my knuckle every time I put it on or remove it. I'm very tempted to re-create my white topaz long skinny pear earrings with blue double sided rose cut sapphires, purple melee stone and blackened gold. You know, matching is nice sometimes!

Please do share your 2 black gold pieces when completed! I have a small obsession now and need more eye candy. :D

Well, Neptune beat me to the colored stone in blackened metal thing, but I'm very excited to have gone with something unlike anything else I own and having it feel the most like *me* piece of jewelry I own.

Not sure how well the colored stone crowd would respond to this being a lab piece and all, but they might appreciate the color combination if nothing else. =) The custom recut purple sapphires are enchanting, and such a nice light purple tone.

Do it, do it! I definitely want to see more black pieces around here. Extra bonus with colored stones!

I can’t believe I’m just seeing this. Your ring is absolutely stunning! :kiss2:
I love, love, love the striking contrast of the black gold against the blue & purple sapphires. I’ve always thought about doing a black gold piece but I’m a big ol chicken. Your ring is inspired! It looks amazing on you too.

Thank you so much for the kind words. Caysie had me laughing in her response about wanting purple sapphires for the side stones. It gave me the impression of her sighing fondly whilst going "You know you asked for one of the hardest sapphire colors to find, right?"

It is surprisingly comfortable to wear, although so far it has only been worn to game nights at a friend's house and while I'm working at my computer.

An emerald halo is in my future at some point, with your ring being an obvious inspiration!
