I just bought this ring for myself. My husband said to go out and find something I like but don't spend a ton. So, I saw this and I love it! I love Amethysts as I tend to wear a lot of blues, pinks, and purples and I think they go with just about everything.

Beautiful!! Please post hand shots if you can! I love the checkerboard faceting on that amethyst!
 
It''s a really beautiful ring! I love the faceting on the stone.

HI:

Swaeeeet! Congrats!

cheers--Sharon
 
that is very pretty!! :)
 
Here is my first attempt at taking a handshot. I would wear this on my right hand, but I am right handed and need to take the pictures. I was in the bathroom and had my 12 year old son coming in a laughing at me trying to take a picture. This should give you a good idea of the ring. It was just sized today at a size 5 but I think it needs to be re-sized again to a 4.75 or a 4.5.
 
Very pretty! Love that color.
 
I will post them for you, give me a sec...
 
This picture is distorted, scroll down.

Thank you FireGoddess. But, the ring looks better in the picture at the top of the thread. LOL! My hand looks so HUGE in the picture I took. And, I only have a 4.5 size ring and a very small hand. Oh well. I don't take good pictures yet.

How did you post that picture? When I tried to do it, the file size kept coming up too large.
 
The first picture without distortion.

Lol, FG!!! That was pretty funny!

Beautiful ring beeweaver!!!
 
I don''t know how the picture got distorted in the first try because I scale the whole thing down to size proportionally, not in a single direction. That was a weird fluke.

I usually crop down and shrink pictures in Powerpoint.

I actually bought it at Whitehall Jewelers. I live in the Chicago area. I was pleasantly surprised and a very nice price of $199. I need to go have it resized again tomorrow to a 4.5. For $28 you get a 3 year warranty and they will size it, rhodium plate it, replace or repair anything on it. I think it is worth it just for the rhodium plating alone. They have a jeweler there in the store almost everyday and can do it within an hour or so. I like going there to get some of my yellow gold pieces rhodium plated and it lasts for about 18 months on my yellow gold pieces.

I will try to get some good side shots as well.
 
How lovely!! The setting is gorgeous and looks great on you!
 
Here is another shot:

I like the Vintage look and the price was right! I will be wearing at my brother's wedding in California in a few weeks. I have a black dress with a few pink and purple flowers embroidered on the lower half of the dress. This should add some zing! I didn't want to spend a lot but I never thought I could get something so nice for that price. I truly was a "must have!" LOL!

I did see it at Fred Meyer Jewelrs as well. But, they would have had to send it out for sizing and it would take a week. I like to get my jewelry right then and there. LOL! I want it NOW! There is also a matching necklace and earrings. But, I wouldn''t wear those as much as I like to wear a diamond necklace and earrings. The ring was perfect and a great price. I got my fix for now.
 
Ohhh that''s beautiful! If I had seen that, I would have considered it for my e ring along with the one I have now. Isn''t Amy so yummy?
 
I took my ring in today to have it resized and happened to see one just like it with a raspberry colored stone. It was at Rogers and Hollands. I went in and asked about it. I could NOT believe what they told me. The raspberry stone was a created sapphire but it was the exact same setting as my Amethyst and they wanted $450 for it on sale! Are they crazy??? for a created stone?? Just goes to prove you really need to shop around!
 
oooooooooh, gorgeous
 
Wow, it looks great and amethyst is such a beautiful color. A great choice and so much more affordable than diamonds. You''ve got my approval.... it''s fab!
