I fell in love with Niel’s topaz ring when she first got it: https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/6ct-imperial-topaz-in-1-7ct-graduated-halo.264294/

I tucked away the idea for setting something of mine in the future.

Jeff White listed this 5.05 carat Mahenge garnet a year or so ago, and I hemmed and hawed and then it disappeared, so I figured it had sold. However, it didn’t! I got a second chance recently and grabbed it. I have a few of these lighter garnets and love them all. Biggest got set first. Here she is in rose gold. I went with lab diamonds in the halo because it was still very pricey and I was trying to limit costs somewhat. DK did fine work, as always.
Niel says it looks like her ring with a sepia filter.

"Oh my gosh". I literally said those words when I saw your pictures. I'm a sucker for halos and this one is absolutely beautiful!!

I said something similar when I opened it, but my words weren’t suitable for the forum. Lol

I’m so glad for inspiration from other PSers!

Thanks, y’all! Pretty happy with it. It’s been a tough week. This has perked it up. I guess that’s the point, right?

Beautiful stone in a lovely setting :love:
It’s gorgeous!!

Can I request something when you get the time and gumption to do so? And you surely can tell me to go take a flying leap!

Do you have peach/pink/orange family stones in spinel and sapphire as well? Would love to see a family shot if you would indulge!

Not too many, but I’ll see what I can put together. :)

I love the proportion of the halo to the striking center stone! Such a pretty ring.
