Searching for vintage aquamarine ring

[Mondayschild]

Come across any particularly good ones online?

price range and size?
Im a bit (ok a lot) of an eBay fiend.

 

[Mondayschild]

Under AU $1000 if possible!! (I'm also partial to carnelian and green chalcedony....) it's for a graduation present. Thanks!!!

 

[Mondayschild]

Size - I'm Q/R (big) so usually not available in vintage

 

[Mondayschild]

I found this one but wondering if it is overpriced? https://www.etsy.com/listing/752517573/art-nouveau-ring-with-diamonds-and

I personally will pass on this one, as I believe it may be overpriced.

However, more importantly to me - the stone has a massive window!

Oooh, fellow Aussie. best hunting ground is ebay US or UK. Unfortunately you’ll be hit with GST fees and Global shipping fees but still better. Sad our $A is so poor against the US.
By size I mean gem, resizing up or down a bit is not too expensive.
With Aquas they are usually windowed, that how they cut them. Modern cuts can be fancy enough to prevent a window but they are harder to come by.
ill start looking!

Thank you!!!

Define no, it isn’t even blue and way too much.

Nice but it will be tiny ring, it’s only just over 1 carat, so too much in my opinion.

 

[Bron357]

Sorry I’ve been side tracked. Here are some eBay ones.

 

[Mondayschild]

Are you allowed to post links?

This ? https://www.etsy.com/listing/743910288/beautiful-vintage-10k-yellow-gold

 

[Bron357]

I’m useless, I don’t know how to post links but I’ve got their eBay numbers so you can look them up. do you want their numbers? They aren’t mine or anyone I know, I just search eBay everyday because I’m retired and addicted ha ha.
Btw this is my eBay aquamarine. It took me 15 years to find this one. It had to be huge and under $1,000 $A and everyone was like “nah, that’s never going to happen”. And it came with earrings too.

 

[Mondayschild]

Gorgeous @Bron357

 

[Mondayschild]

Maybe the number for the second one? I found number one.....

 

[Mondayschild]

I feel I'm drowning in choice. I love the older oval/marquise shapes. I don't want an emerald cut kind.....the heart wants what it wants

@Bron357 - I couldn't get one of the etsy rings out of my mind, window not withstanding (it's part of the charm). So I got it ! It is to celebrate my Masters degree & I'm really excited

Lovely, @Bron357! Do you have a thread for that ring?

My dream RHR (will fit soon enough, ring size going down as I lose weight)

Really lovely and romantic Aqua ring - enjoy!
