Anyone looking for a candidate for a conversion? These are single cuts, this would make an amazing pendant, ring or bracelet!

When I pulled the trigger on my Colombian emerald ballerina-style ring (it’s posted over on PS Colored GemStones), I had to choose between it and this beauty.
I must admit the Tiffany part made my heart beat faster.
Very difficult decision.
So this ring is still out there and it’s truly amazing!
Here are a couple mod shots indoors and outside along with the jewelers Etsy Store.... F0915584-F4C6-4F87-AE10-CA18A5642C14.jpeg E9383BF1-3976-4830-B89D-30CB31A44B6E.jpeg BC83B83C-862D-4B0E-84C1-45CC99B6084F.jpeg andhttps://www.etsy.com/listing/661939378/vintage-tiffany-co-platinum-agl

Gaaaah!
Out of my price range!
Find something under $99.....

If I could find something of this caliper for $99 I wouldn’t share it with a soul :lol:

Actually I’m in the same boat, Christmas budget is insane this year, the kids get older and the things they want get more expensive!

I hate their site as I always get a pop up to sign up and there isn’t a way to close that stupid box. On the limited info I could see they didn’t say it was paraiba. Is that stated somewhere? IMO, it is more than slightly included.

They did not--however they are known to call paraiba tourmalines just "tourmalines"-- posting to see it's of any interest for the much more well informed buyers on this site. It may just be a pretty blue/green in real life; it's always a roll of the dice with the limited info from The Real Real.

For context, I got a $10k+ Erika Winters ring for $1200 because it was just listed as a "platinum ring" and it said there was a maker's mark, but not that it was clearly EW (although in that case, her work was so unmistakeable I knew it was hers the instant I saw it).

Have you posted about this? I’m dying to see it.

Someone PLEASE buy one or all of these Tiffany leaf brooches so they don’t torture me or my pocketbook! They look like exact replicas of leaves in 18k gold. I think they may have been created by McTeigue for Tiffany in midcentury but I’m not sure. I especially love the red oak leaf. Photo 5 does me in. If I were Canadian I would totally go for the maple leaf:

That’s gorgeous!

It is!! There’s a pricescoper with a very similar ring. I love it so so much and I don’t even wear yellow gold.

s-l1600 (1).jpg I love this Single Stone-esque OEC! I can't believe no one has snatched it up yet...here's to hoping it goes to a PS-er! https://www.ebay.com/itm/18kt-1-70c...-Antique-Diamond-Engagement-Ring/222677578726

Oh my gosh I was just looking at this ring and even contacted the vendor yesterday!!! But the center was a different size I think he puts the setting a lot

OMG I was just looking at this ring yesterday, but at a different link the vendor is Jacob K Jewelry and I guess he uses this setting alot?? Because the center stone was bigger than this one.

updated to add that it is the same vendor - Jacob K but again he has listings with that same setting different stones. Has anyone ever used him? I've been going gaga over OECs and have decided I need to have one, but am in analysis paralysis mode and have been looking at so many vendors, ebay, IG pages, etc. etc. etc. In fact I communicated with Jacob K about this piece lol (the larger one) and was going to post a main thread to see if anyone worked with him,

I have had the pleasure of not only meeting @natasha-cupcake in person but also trying on her gorgeous ring! I’m sure she wouldn’t mind me sharing that the stone in her avatar ring is a padparadscha sapphire :kiss2:

@CHRISTY-DANIELLE has one of my top five favorite OEC rings and the setting is just as amazing:kiss2:

@Mreader, my two avatar rings were EBay finds...seriously good stuff there if you know what you’re doing:loopy:

You'll have to point me to your fave sellers. Man yes that Octagonal setting is so amazing on Christy-Danielle; reminds me also of the ring LLJsmom has which is also TDF.

Anyone looking for an amazing OEC around 1 1/2 carats? This one is 1.58, the setting is platinum (although the prongs look a little crooked to me). $4,995. I assume this is an IG price but he does also have an Etsy store. The ring is a size 5.75 :kiss2:

I love the way the diamond looks! I need more from the setting though...
