JKT and our favourite lapidaries = ?

Yup I saw all of those on JKT's last email ...I really like the Jeff White tourmaline but I think my account would hate me. All of her designs are goregous though!
 
The JW tourmaline is superb. Drool on my keyboard. Nice design of the ring for it. Wish it were mine (free, of course).

Thanks Making The Grade for posting the link about the JKT spessartite pendant. It was just what I was looking for!! I have a custom spess and wht. sapphire ring coming from Daniel M that it will be beautiful with (stone is my first purchase and is from Barry). I so appreciate all of the contributors to this forum and have learned so much from all of you!!
 
I think the rubelite is is fantastic
 
I see the spess pendant is gone, I hope you got it madams! MTG good enabling work. ;))

I can see Sarahbear with the Rubellite pendant, it'll go well with your JKT collection, that's what bank accounts are for. :mrgreen:

VL and JF, my favourites are the Rubellite and the Indicolite tourmaline, but the Ametrine pendant is very elegant looking.
 
Awesome spess pendant! I had fun looking through some of her recent work.

You're welcome! I should actually thank you from saving me from the temptation of buying it myself! I hope you come back and post lots of photos of your new lovelies!
 
Thanks Loving Gems! I am so looking forward to the arrival of both of my new spess gems!!

I love LOVE LOOOOOOOOOOOOVE the last ring (tsav/diamond 3-stone), but it's just too expensive for me. I've been staring at it ever since it was released.
 
I love the first ring, the JW tourm, but it is already reserved, which is a really good thing. That tourmaline is so beautiful, I could just tape the stone to my hand and walk around like that...

In addition to the ones posted, I'd like to point out a few more:
http://www.etsy.com/listing/66299641/a-little-spicy-tanga-argentium-sterling - Barry Tanga rhodolite
http://www.etsy.com/listing/64948178/green-tourmaline-in-argentium-sterling - Barry supernova green tourmaline (LOVE this one too!)
http://www.etsy.com/listing/64737396/deep-red-spessartite-garnet-in-open - Finewater spess

I've had my eye on that last one, what a gorgeous ring and stone! I've got too many wedding expenses right now though... :rolleyes:
 
I like the 3 stone tsav ring too, but I already have a 1ct tsavorite from barry in a ring, and I recently got another round tsav from him that's being put in a pendant. So I think I'm tsavved out! My wallet would also be unhappy with me...
 
Someone reserved the Rubellite pendant, anyone here has a confession to make?

No, but thank God, I had emailed her about it. This saves me some money.
 
I've been eyeing the tsavorite and diamond ring, too--it's the first thing I check when I visit Barry's site. And it's on sale, too! I've been waffling because I have a larger tsavorite that I need to set, but I really do love the JKT/Barry version.
 
Add these pieces to the list of reasons I wish I was rich. Drool worthy for sure - especially that Jeff White indicolite. <swoon>
 
I love the proportions of the Rubellite ring! I also can't believe no one has gone for the tsav and diamond ring, its perfect.
 
I love the two Tsavorite rings too, is it because the stones are on the small side that these two rings are still available?

That's the only thing I can think of, because really, what's not to love about those? I really am an admirer of both JKT and Barry!
 
Haha, yeah, I think we colored stone peeps are a bit spoiled in the size department!

I think if the tsavorite was at least 5mm, it would have been gone in a flash!
 
Wow! Thanks for posting those and introducing me to the designer! JKT is a wonderful artist and the rings on etsy are lovely!

The rubellite pendant is mine. But I am not having her put it in the proposed design she showed. It is a little too "antiquey" looking for me. I prefer more modern, clean designs. So, she will be making a similar setting to a spess pendant she just sold someone on PS from her Etsy site.
 
Cind11 you are just killing me with all these gorgeous projects!

I'm unspeakably jealous and hope there will be many photos to come!

Haha thanks, MTG! My picture taking abilities are sorely lacking but I will try. Too bad it never seems to be sunny here. (Ohio)

Looking forward to seeing it, I'm sure it's going to be gorgeous.
 
I do have some good news. I am getting the JKT Gamata Tourmaline ring. My first JKT design and Jeff White stone.
Anyone's interest it is posted on her website.
