OMC RHR Inspiration

[ooeemusic]

Hi all! It's been a minute since I've spent time here, but I just picked up the OMC and I'm looking for some inspiration. It was sold (second hand) to me as a fancy brown (not sure about that) .085-.9, OMC.

I knew it would need some attention (sizing, prong maintenance), but upon receiving it, I think the original setting needs more attention than I want to give it. It's obviously set in yellow gold (platinum head), which isn't may favorite, but I thought it might be a nice change from my normal white gold collection.

I'm now thinking I'll have it made into a relatively simple right hand ring, in white gold, to emphasis the brown tones.

Anyone have any thoughts/places I can look to get some inspiration for a right hand ring? I had thought there was a thread on PC somewhere of RHRs but I can't find it.

Thanks all!

Personally, I would opt for a simple Gypsy rub-over setting myself for a RHR, which was what I did with a 0.86ct OEC with the stone and setting from Ivy and Rose.

This is my ring:



And this is my RHR collection, all for the middle finger; the one in the middle is my 1.19ct EC which is a special occasion ring for dressier events, all in Platinum:

Here’s an 0.82 H in white gold, stock Brilliance setting



And a 0.72 H in 14k yellow gold, setting is custom but it is basically a Stuller setting with rope engraving instead of a diamond halo.



And a 0.4 F-G in white gold Ivy & Rose setting

I looked and couldn’t find a post about right-hand bling so I thought to start one. I love to switch mine up depending on outfit and mood and would love to see everyone’s right-hand bling of the day! Today I’m wearing pink so here’s mine: pink sapphire and turquoise ring, little David Yurman pink tourmaline band, and micro eternity band. Feels so fun!

Thread 'Show me your RHR'

Jan 19, 2011

I was looking through the helpful threads archive to find a link for right hand rings and could not find one. My DH so generously got me a new (well a used trade in 2 ct) diamond. I was able to keep my beautiful halo ering and will be wearing that as a rhr for now. I was wondering if its too much for a rhr so I wondered what everyone else wears? Please post your beauties!

Thank you! I knew there had to be a thread or two somewhere!

I bought a fancy brown yellow second hand that I will be wearing as a RHR and I asked David Klass to "partially cup" the diamond in rose gold, and it really enhanced the color of the diamond ! Just a thought!

Below is my fancy brown rosecut diamond set in 14K (brushed) rose gold. I wanted to highlight the pink tones I saw in the stone and this did the trick. The back of the ring is not completely closed for cleaning purposes and enhances the depth of the color in the stone.

@Inked recommendation of a cup is a great suggestion. I can’t remember who, but a PS’er had a lighter blue sapphire and had David Klass set it in a cup with bright blue enameling inside. It was a game changer.

I hope this helps and can’t wait to see the direction you take.

You can’t mention one of your pieces without a photo of it, now I want to see!

So as some of you might have read, I bought a 2.51 ct cushion cut blue sapphire online and when it came it was...not all that. In almost all lighting, it blacked out completely. And it had a window. And it was going to be my only sapphire ring (my DH's birth stone). And it ended up being rather disappointing - from pretty much every direction.

I went to the colored gems forum and talked/thought about recutting. Or heating. Or painting it with blue nail polish (ok - not really, but...almost...). And the response was mostly - don't do it. Taking the word of members more knowledgable...

@Inked that diamond is EVERYTHING! I recognized Priya’s snake ring which is on my growing list of DK projects. I can’t wait to see your ring.
