Did you sent that Sapphire to JA and have JA set the stone? Or did you buy the setting and have a local jeweler set it?

Chrono, that bottom ring is going to be so gorgeous. I can''t wait to see it done. I love the blues best so most of my jewelry falls into the blues! Here is a sample with my blue rings..........

Such gorgeous blue jewelry - keep them coming!

Stone Hunter - thank you! I sent the sapphire in. Because of how thin the girdle is, they recommended that they adjust the setting for the stone themselves (and actually the girdle caused some issues while setting it but they were able to resolve it). I think that''s the only one of my rings that I''ve sent away to be set - all the others were done locally in Chicago at either Steve Quick or Windy City.

Chrono - I just drool over those blue spinels. Gorgeous.

Catmom - I wished you lived near me so that we could do a GTG and I could play with all your incredible jewelry! Incredible pieces!

Jstar - you have such pretty pieces - I am really loving that zircon ring btw!

Lauren - my jewelry inspiration! LOVE your rings dear!
