I have been really lucky this year....
I have a few projects underway and I just picked this up!!!
My cuff to end all cuffs?!!!

0.09ct Fancy intense green blue diamond
Bead set in 18k yellow gold, inlayed on 18k white gold cuff. Wrist size is 7inches.

The pics are all out of order- not sure how to correct....

I love that color! Does it fluoresce?

I am not sure. Being a small stone, it doesn’t come with a full report and therefore doesn’t comment on fluorescence. But you got me curious and I happen to have a black light from my BGD Blue studs..... soooo..... I had to check it out.... and here are the results.

It fluorescences!!! I love it even more!!!

Oh no special insight lol. It's just that almost all of my little colored diamonds fluoresce (except for one olive, and a couple of browns), and many of the whites also. A few also show phosphorescence if the fluorescence is strong blue. I can't tell how strong your blue is, but keep the uv light on it for 20 to 30 seconds and see if it still glows after you turn the light off. The room has to be dark though.

Very cool @gregchang35!! I love it! Great choices!!

Sadly, it doesn’t phosphorescence...would have been super cool!!!

Most don't and it's not something that's readily visible, such as the glow in a nightclub Phosphorescence doesn't last that long and I think fluorescence is really the cooler effect.

Greg, that is a really beautiful FCD!!!

Its setting is also perfect, classic, understated, and wonderful.
I'm jealous and would be happy to use yours as an inspiration.

Designing appropriate jewelry for men ain't easy.
Betty Davis might even say, "Mens' jewelry is not for sissies".

Enjoy it forever in good health, my friend.

Thanx so much,@kenny...coming from you I feel that I have landed a beautiful stone and glad to hear from you again. X
Happy for you to use as inspiration- I would be honoured.

Thank you!!!!!


Thanx... it has been a while in the making...



Thank you. I actually got the FCD name wrong. The picture of the stone in the box has the correct colour name. Got so excited to posit I got the names wrong way round.... it is a fancy intense blue green. I also may or may not have blue project coming to fruition!!!

Spectacular diamond in a unique setting. Where would you ever see another like this? Thanks for sharing.

Thanx so much... I got this from leibish.
@kenny (is an avid FCD collector- his collection is to die for!!! and, a fantastic photographer) has approved the quality of the pictures leibish (the ones I posted above). Their online pics are the closest representation of the truest colour of the diamond in hand. He loves his photography and that adds more to the weight of the statement he makes.

There are other sites that have FCD’s, but it is hard to compare when we are spoilt with the images that leibish shows you. That isn’t to say that other sites offer great FCD’s. You have to know what images including videos to ask for. So, I ask them for similar pics like what Leibish produces. That way I can sorta compare the stones.

Hope that helps.

very nice @gregchang35 - love the mixed metal and that green diamond is to die for! Congratulations on a great cuff.
