Have I mentioned how much I love David Klass recently? Because I do...A Lot!! :kiss2: His work is always so gorgeous and every project I've done with him has been a breeze. Plus, my total came in under the estimate so...score! :D

My most recent project, with DK, involved a 1.13ct Man Sin pink spinel I got from Arkieb1. I waffled around on setting ideas and eventually fell back on what I love most...Halos! :mrgreen2: I also picked up some pretty pink spinel melee (from Arkie) and since I didn't use it in my halo ring, I decided to make a band with it.

So, without further ado, here they are!

How cute are these pictures. A little dollhouse desk/dresser and pink wallpaper? So freaking adorable! Way to take the extra step, David Klass jewelers! :mrgreen2::lol-2:

I had a feeling I'd be jealous when I read your thread title and I was right lol! It's stunning in every way, just perfect. The color of the spinel is just gorgeous and the setting is amazing! Love the size of the diamonds too, so blingy Love it, congrats!!!

Elle, What lovely rings and such good use of melee! That spinel just sparkles; hand shots needed although both look charming in that doll house. :kiss2:

The band is adorable and so unique. And I'm cracking up laughing over the use of dollhouse background. I can only imagine how delighted some little people would be to walk into their office and discover two perfect crowns waiting for them. Perfect and whimsical. :love:

Gorgeous! What size are the melee? I'm curious because I have a bunch of 8 pointers I'll eventually look to do something with...

Saw this on his IG account and knew it had to be a PS ring. SO beautiful! Can't wait to see the combo on your hand.

Stunning in every way. Such a rich and beautiful pink spinel. The white metal and diamonds really makes the color pop. I love the details of the ring, such as the milgrain, claw prongs and floral basket. :love:

Thank you! It is a pretty blingy look. What can I say? I like to sparkle! :lol:

Thank you! I can't wait to see it in person and you can count on more pics coming soon. :D

Thank You.:D I will post pics, as soon as I get them.

I can agree with that. I've never seen a better collection than that of the PS family! :mrgreen2:

Wow, they turned out to be amazing!!!!
Thank you! David does awesome work. I'm so excited to see them. :kiss2:

Gorgeous! What size are the melee? I'm curious because I have a bunch of 8 pointers I'll eventually look to do something with...
Which melee? The halo on the main ring or the pink melee in the band? I suck at understanding the point system so that 8 points thing goes straight over my head (it's a math thing :shock:). The pink melee are 1.5mm. The larger stones in the halo are 2.4mm. Hope that helps. :D

Ha! I just knew you were up to sonething good!! Another satured beauty. Gorgeous stones from @arkieb1 and great work by David!!! It's stunning:love:
Thank You! I was lucky enough to have two projects going at once (this project with David and the mahenge spinel with Caysie). These rings were already in the works, when that mahenge spinel, from Caysie, popped up on LT (and I couldn't help but splurge). Thank God my DH loves me. :lol:

Wow, both rings are amazing but that band :kiss2:
LOVE.
Thank you! I have a soft spot for that band. I picked out several bands that I liked and kind of sketched out a design. I can't wait to see how it looks in person. :love:

Me too!!! :lol:

Thank you. I'm glad to know I'm not the only one stalking David's instagram page. :lol-2:

Aww. Thank You! :kiss2: I'm loving all that milgrain. :D

Just gorgeous! I'll bet are going to want to wear it every day.
Right! I'll be pretending to get work done but I'm really going to be staring down at my hand. :shifty::lol:

If you ever tired of having so many beautiful pink stone rings, let me know. :whistle:
Ha, will do..:mrgreen2:

I demand handshots!!! Both rings stacked together, please :)
I especially love the sidestones on the halo ring's shank, are those French cuts??

Thank you. It certainly does provide that blingy look I was going for. :whistle::lol:

Sadly, no, they are not french cuts. Just the usual round brilliant. I've never seen a french cut in person so I wasn't brave enough to use them in a project. Maybe the next one. :twisted2: I will be sure to get those hand shots asap. The rings have shipped and should be in my greedy hands by Wednesday. :mrgreen2:

Oh, no! I'm sorry you're not feeling well. :confused2: My advice: Take two rings and call me in the morning. :lol-2:

I was fine, but your ring took my breath away and made me dizzy. What do I take?

Each ring is beautiful on its own. The combination is glorious!

I'll admit, I've been pretty lucky this year on the CS front (my poor, poor, DH). :mrgreen2:

So pretty!! I love it!!
Thank you! :D

And we're in business. My first thought? Damn, that's heavy!o_O :lol:
It's my first platinum ring (other than my original e-ring) and it's pretty substantial. Both the band and the halo ring are so, so gorgeous in person! :kiss2: The halo ring is definitely an in your face kind of girl and I love her for it. :lol-2:

Here's a perspective shot. You can see my fur baby here. He could not care less that I want to take bling shots. He's all "throw the freaking ball, mom!"

You can see that the melee, in the band, varies in color. It is much more obvious in these pics. I find it is very subtle in person.

It's glorious, I really love both. Yes platinum is heavy if you are not used to it!!! The colour of Man Sin hot pinks in melee does vary, I've gotten it in various different sizes and you can have reds hot pinks and medium pinks all in the same batch, and then if you get another batch not cut from the same initial batch, that too can be a totally different colour...... I could probably match it better if I had thousands of melee stones in front of me but typically I have say anywhere from 50 to 200 stones in a tray that might be a few carats worth and out of that 200 stones only a couple of them are an exact match in colour, most of them are similar but not exact.
