Omg I used to live in Seattle and that was the ring I wanted initially for my engagement!!! It was being sold at Isadora’s near downtown Pike Place.

I don’t know, I always feel like that this is the ring that for me got away...so interesting to see who it ended up with!!!

My fiancé and I tried it on and when we went back to purchase it a while later (despite PS advice that this is not good value for what it is) we were told it was sold. We eventually settled on my current violet sapphire ring.

If I remember correctly it was a 3.21 carat emerald (I was still a newbie to colored stones so did not ask for treatment), Art Deco set in platinum, and asking price was just over 10k.

I even posted about it at the time here:

Emeralds for engagement ring?

Thank you folks again for your help and advice recently on the sapphire ring. I also had spotted the two following rings and wanted to see what the expert consensus is regarding whether it is pleasing to the eye and worth the money: 1. The first is an emerald cut Emerald about 3 carats flanked...

I have to say, this just kind of made my day to know that the gorgeous ring I missed out on (and still think about now!) went on to have a romantic story of its own with another wonderful couple...

Congrats to the lovebirds!

@Pinkmartini87 Wow!
Small world we live in....its almost eery!

& I think you're right, and that it ended up in the right hands. She's a very seemingly kind woman who has a a lot of depth to her personality and red hair lol Kind of an enigma

Emeralds + redhair= Aesthetic perfection
