How beautiful, @2Neezers ! I love how the curved band picks up the pretty oval of the stone! Enjoy!!!

I also have this 9.8mm Rhodolite from Gene I purchased quite a while ago that I have yet to add to this thread. It behaves the way Rhodolite garnets typically do, but it also has amazing chunky facet reflections that show in certain lighting.

This is a smaller though 1 ct+ mint kornerupine that I have used as part of a whimsical composition of colored stones. It's another possibility for Gene's smaller stones.

I forgot about this thread! Here are two more I set from Gene. Hope they’re allowed here - they’re both lab sapphires. Feel free to remove if not allowed. Both are custom made with Jewelryhoo2 on eBay. A blue lab sapphire and a padparascha lab sapphire!

I'll play! I picked up this Montana sapphire from Gene that was the perfect size for my existing setting.

I love this stone! Not only is it beautifully cut but it looks different at every angle and in every light!

I went custom with this yellow heliodor from Gene. Was waffling a lot until I settled on this beryl-beryl-beryl color scheme. Impeccably executed by Enhoerning Jewelry.

Adding to this thread, 4 rings with stones set by Gene.

The first set includes the lab pink sapphire, lab electric blue cobalt spinel, and a paraiba YAG, all set in the same rose gold settings by Amcor Design. I highly recommend Amcor, the settings were very affordable and substantial for the price.

second pic is lab pad sapphire in a yellow gold setting by LoveRingDesigns with moissanite side stones. To be set this weekend! CB1E991A-B824-4C43-A075-42453F4D2256.jpeg C3B58920-382E-41B9-A3F9-0E79D51CF6FE.jpeg 830169BA-18E2-4FDE-AF96-0A0EF3B98CB1.jpeg 456F23F2-0E8D-4E1D-9FA8-C0049E5648C7.jpeg

Here's my Tajik spinel, set in a Stuller setting with 3 diamonds on each side by my local jeweler. I went with rose gold and it came out great with the vivid pink stone. The flowers are water lotus, pink coneflower, and hydrangea "limelight".

Thanks for the setting ideas, @elle_71125 ! This is the largest gemstone I own and I feel lucky to have acquired it. :dance:

I'm including a photo in UV light taken through my loupe to show the strong fluorescence of the spinel. It's an interesting effect! The stone changes a lot in different light, which is something I enjoy. The hand shot, with a little more sun, is closer to the color I usually see.

Love this. Do you have the Stuller number?

I don’t. I just told my local jeweler what I wanted and she looked through their catalog with me. I had to special order the setting but it only took a few days.
