Please don't anyone faint, but one of my pendants is done! :dance: It's a 7+ct tanzanite, much more colorful in person. I love the setting!

I cannot believe it! It is beautiful! I can't believe that took so LONG! The design doesn't look complicated omg. Did @Dandi get her earrings yet?

YAY @PinkAndBlueBling! It was worth the wait, it's gorgeous!!

@Mreader they arrived a couple of days ago, woo hoo! They're really lovely. I had a very loooong day scrubbed in theatre, so they brought a bit of much needed sparkle to my shift!

I worked with Dan on two new projects. The first is my paraiba yag from Precision Gem. I had it set in a diamond halo. I wanted something simple yet feminine and it turned out perfectly.

My second ring is a floral halo made with a blue zircon from Jeff White and pink sapphire melee from Desertrose. This was my first time working with Daniel M and I think he did an awesome job. I will definitely be working with him again in the future.

Those are amazing! Those colors!
My two best rings came from Dan, and you can't find anyone nicer to work with. Number 3 is in the pipeline.

Thank you! :kiss2:
Dan is super nice to work with and I can’t wait to work with him again. Plus his cads are awesome. I can’t wait to see what your new ring looks like. Any hints? :mrgreen:

@elle_71125 I'm so happy these two rings turned out so beautiful! You know I especially love that pink and blue number:kiss2:. Yummy! Can you show us the shoulders?
Thank you. They turned out even better than I’d hoped for. Especially the floral ring. :love: I’ll have to work on a shoulder pic. All the pics I took of this baby and I couldn’t find one shoulder pic.:lol:

I gasped out loud at your new pieces! Simply gorgeous! :love:
Thank you so much! That’s quite the compliment. :kiss2::kiss2:

Those colors are incredible!
Thank you! :love: The paraiba yag looks even more vivid in person (I’m totally serious). The zircon ring can shift a bit more in differ lighting but it is a beauty.

Both rings are gorgeous, Elle, especially the zircon and pink sapphire piece!
Thank you! :mrgreen: I’m so happy with how the floral zircon ring turned out. I love the petals and the milgrain detailing is perfect. Dan did an amazing job.

Love your new rings!! I have my chrysoberyl being set by Dan, looking forward to share it when it is ready.
Thank you! :kiss2:
I can’t wait to see your ring. Do you want to share your design in the meantime?

I contacted Dan to do a project for me several months ago via Etsy chat and asked him how he preferred to be contacted. He chatted back immediately saying email and he gave me his email. I sent him an email with a project description -and he emailed back saying he had received my email and would get back to me after he reviewed the project. Then he ghosted me. I even sent him a second chat in Etsy inquiring if he had any questions about my project and saying I could modify it if he felt it was too complex (it wasn’t, because I also said all of this was modifiable per his abilities and preferences). Still, he never replied even to say he was not interested.

Now I’m seeing all these gorgeous projects being done and wonder what I did to have him ghost me with no explanation. Is this some sort of special club?

Sorry to hear this but I have to remind myself he's a one man show. It is frustrating sometimes! I sent him some replacement stones for a ring he is redoing. That was 8 weeks ago....
I think he stays very busy and probably has too much going on at once.

Your rings are both Gorgeous!!! Like, holy Wow, Dan! Excellent stone choices as well. I love the vibrant, saturated hues. Must see profile shots of the galleries on both!!

I understand that completely and I understand if someone can’t or doesn’t want to take a job. However it is confusing when he replied immediately to my Etsy inquiry, and replied immediately to my email with the project description. Then didn’t reply to either. I’m truly confused. I just re-checked my email and Etsy chats and no, he hasn’t gotten back to me. I wonder if I should inquire a third time or just let it go.

It's not a special club. He is an artist and always seems to be juggling multiple projects with multiple people and he does it as a single person, no staff. Having patience in working with him always pays off though because of the high quality you receive at the best possible price.
