Holy cow this thread. Blue and white are my two favorite colors, so...

I have a few other blues (pics later) but this is my favorite one:

BBnxHxg.jpg


It's paraiba tourmaline, which pricescopers told me years ago is probably expensive* AND definitely soft. So now nobody ever sees it because it hides away in my jewelry box! Sometimes I fantasize about wearing it as a ring, but that will just remain as a fantasy...

*I didn't purchase it so I have no clue. It was just a gift.

Gorgeous!!!:love:

@ilovegemstones I don’t remember if you shared your avatar here and you probably did but may I say (or repeat as the case may be) I LOVE your ring. More pics perhaps? And would you mind repeating the details on this ring. I apologize I don’t remember and just love your ring. :love:

@missy @MrsKMB : Love your imagination! And I really LOVE cats too! You need to get your fur babies some jewellery too, to match up with your glamour too :dance:

@ilovegemstones : Thank you! I love your montana sapphire and scrumptious unheated blue sapphire in those beautiful engraved bands!

@Acinom: Love your pieces! You have impeccable taste! Your pieces have become PS drool-worthy classics.

I have no words for this - your paraiba is breathtaking and other-worldly!

^Just wow...

Quick pic of all my blues! All were gifts, no idea on value.
From left to right: 7.27ct paraiba tourmaline, 3.65ct opal & diamonds, 35.42ct aquamarine & diamonds, tanzanite & diamond ring, sapphire & diamond ring. I really like the sapphire ring in person but can't capture the blue well in photos, hm.

I have no words for this - your paraiba is breathtaking and other-worldly!
I have no idea if it's "good" or not. It only has a cert from AGL (Japan), and pricescopers recommended I send it into the "real" AGL (USA) for evaluation, but since I have no plans on selling it and it's such a hassle I never did get it valued. I love its look but I'm now afraid to wear it. It only gets out of the box for a photo on pricescope once every few years. :cry2:

To be honest I wear none of these except the sapphire ring. Things that scratch are not for me. :lol:
