Rubellite, spinel, and merelani set!

[MakingTheGrade]

Finally got around to setting these. All cute by Barry. A 5.9mm merelani mint garnet, a 6.2mm hot fuscia rubellite that is impressively HOT, and a 5.2mm blue spinel.

I was originally going to sell the rubellite since I don't generally wear "hot" colors, but after I reset my ering, my original setting was empty but I'm too sentimental to sell it. So I figured I would set my rubellite there and wear it as a RHR, and I'm so glad I did since the stone really pops.

The last photo is fuzzy but shows the color the best.

Sorry for the quality of the photos, I lost my camera recently and haven't' replaced it. So these are just the phone..

Here's the spinel, it's set in a 14k lan.bo setting with upgraded diamonds.

Here is the mint garnet, there's more of a blue tint than is apparent in the photos.
I've always wanted a three stone RHR, and now I have one! The mint is 5.9mm with 4mm/.25ct side stones, 14k trellis style setting.

All together now...

Thanks for looking!
I think I'm no done setting the loose stones I wanted to set. YAY!

I love the color of that spinel. It always amazes me when folks show blue spinel absolutely devoid of grey, as I have never seen one in person...nice sparklies you have there, MTG!

If you took three of my favourite colours and put them into rings, you'd have these! Beautiful stones, nice settings, and good variety, too. (*cough*dibsifyoueversell*cough*)

All beautiful, but I have to say, that spinel "got me"..... congrats!

Three beautiful gems and rings!

 

[Enerchi]

MTG! Those are all gorgeous rings in beautiful settings! Each are stunning! I'm drawn to the mint garnet ut would not reject the others!! Stunning!

 

[Amys Bling]

they all look great!

I had a really hard time photographing the mint to show the nice level of saturation, it always showed up too light because of how bright it is. But the color is a bit better represented in these, and you can see the profile.

Wow Wow Wow!

OK, I'm embarrassed to admit this but I am literally drooling over your rings!!! (alright, not literally but darn close! )
They are TDF. Each one so beautiful.

Love the profile on your mint garnet and the blue of your spinel is my favorite color! Enjoy in health and happiness!

Just lovely! I think the mint is my favorite... but only because I'm partial to them.

 

[GemFever]

Beautiful! I love all three on your hand, looks so fun Awesome colors!

 

[Dreamer_D]

They are all so beautiful! The three stone in particular is lovely, you don't see many of those minty greens with nice white diamonds, at least I haven't. The combination is so serene!

 

[familynurse]

They are all beautiful- but my favorite is the rubellite- as you say- it really pops!!

 

[MakingTheGrade]

I've had some of these stones for almost a year so it was about time I got around to settings!

Thanks everyone for the nice comments! I think it's cool that everyone seems to have a different favorite, just goes to show we all have our own tastes in these things!

 

[distracts]

Gorgeous! Between the three of those I could not pick a favorite - they're all so outstanding.

By any chance do you have the vendor pic of the rubellite? I'd like to see how it compares to your hand shots.

MTG that is one of the nicest Rubellites I've seen in years. It's truly outstanding - lucky you. BTW the spinel and garnet aren't too bad either!!!!! What a beautiful collection of new rings.

 

[Porridge]

All beautiful but that mint garnet ring is spectacular!

 

[ColoredStonesLady]

Wow!! I love them all, but the rubellite and spinel really knocked my socks off!! You have wonderful taste!!

 

[tyty333]

I like them all too!!! Really beautiful!

Can I ask who the settings are from? They look very nice.

 

[Coco914]

I love all three, but the rubellite and spinel....WOW.... the colors are AMAZING!

 

[Starzin]

Yummmm...they're all positively delicious. Oh to have your problems of deciding which to wear each day

Actually, I have way too many RHR by my estimation and I'm not really a hoarder so I'm getting around to listing some things. But just for fun I took a picture of my current RHR collection.

It's sad how well I know your jewels. :-/ I swear I don't stalk!

Beautiful collection! I love the variety of stones and settings. Thanks for sharing!

Wonderful collection and soooo nice to see that rubellite set, it's a grand stone. I like this last batch of set stones, it would be nice to see them in person. I bet they sparkle like mad!
