That is soooo Dreamy!!!! did you buy the Ruby from Sally as well? or did you supply it to her? Gorgeous

 

[packrat]

Kas! Is that the stone that had the different shape to it? It looks fabulous in the lotus!! Can''t wait to see it on your hand!

Here's a picture for those with browsers that are slow to load. I think it looks great. I've been itching for a moonstone lotus ring from her too.

 

[Indylady]

WOW!

It is completely and utterly perfect.

 

[LtlFirecracker]

That really came out beautifully, I love the ruby.

 

[historychick]

wow I love it! I have a ruby cab in a lotus setting that I am sooo happy with...yours is amazing though.

 

[omieluv]

Beautiful!!

 

[jstarfireb]

Yay, it''s done! So pretty, and a bit different from the other lotuses. Wear it in good health!

P.S. I also see Loriken''s pink lotus listed today!

BIG thanks to:

tourmaline lover: her moonstones are lovely... I''d like to get dangly lotus earrings

Arcadian: agreed!!!
Upgrade: I would be a bad PSer if I didn''t post hand pics! I post quite a few I''m sure...
Musey: lol, I''ll probably pass out when I see it IRL
Pink Tower: Rubies are my birthstone, but I had never been drawn to them until I saw ruby stars... then I thought, hmmm, my birthday is coming up

kribbie: beautiful indeed

D&T: Sally sourced the ruby for me. we had talked about unique and funky stones and how that was kinda what I was going for and- ta da!
Packrat: you remembered?! aww

yes that is the very same one, I feel it is so well complimented by the gold... drool
Chrono: thank you for posting one of the pics... I should get on that

szh07: after seeing everyones lotus rings here, how happy they''ve been with Sally, how amazingly I was treated, I would definately work with her again

LtlFirecracker: Its better than I imagined
history chick: is it over in the SMTR "show us your lotus rings" thread? I would love to see it!
omieluv: thanks! (ps. I love the raggie in your avatar! what a cute little nose! FI and I are planning on getting two once we move for grad school...)
jstarfireb: it is different. I''m hoping this project has helped them to be able to segway into figuring out the design for rectangular/square stones, I know she had mentioned that they might.... hmmm... I saw the other lotus too- so cute! I saw the screen name and thought, hmm, I''ve heard that before- another PSer!!

I might not get it until the very end of august, but hopefully sooner than that... I''d like it before I move out to GR for school again... but of course- many many many hand pics to follow!!

thanks again everybody!!!

seeing the star...

Awesome color and star and setting!

Gosh, who needs a perfectly shaped stone? I love the character of that ring. Excellent choice, kas!

 

[chrono]

I’m impressed how the setting really brought out the good sides of the star sapphire. The wavy outline isn’t noticeable, which I presume is the plus of a custom setting made to fit the stone.

 

[princessplease]

Wow, lovely!!!!!

 

[stepcutnut]

It looks fantastic What a lovely ring!

 

[Linda W]

That is beautiful. I can''t wait to see it IRL. She does such a fantastic job, doesn''t she??

 

[icekid]

How gorgeous! That setting was made for cabs..

 

[chrono]

Will it take about a week for it to arrive? I can''t wait to see your pictures.

 

[kas baby]

thanks to ckrickett, flygirl, chrono, princessplease, stepcutnut, Linda W, and icekid!


by the pictures, it turned out great- even better than I had hoped. Heart of Water did such a great job at working with this cutie of a ruby!

hopefully it''ll get here before September- but- with the time it takes the money to transfer, then shipping (which she said would take 10-14 days for where I''m at) I''m not exactly sure it''ll be here before I go across the state for school which means even more time because I''ll have to wait for FI to drive it over

...so I''m thinking about upgrading the shipping

 

[chiquitapet]

Just beautiful!!!

 

[chrono]

Wow, September is a long way off. I’m not sure if I’m patient enough to wait that long for something I know looks great and is already completed.
