Spring Stackers and a 3 stone spinel ring, pics galore!

[MakingTheGrade]

Finally had a chance to drop by the jewelers, picked up my stacking set and my 3 stone spinel ring, all stones cut by barry except the lavender round oec style spinel.

On to pics! Stackers first I"m surprised how much I LOVE them since I wasn't sure I"d like the stack look, but the make me so happy and the colors are gorgeous and both stones just sparkle in every lighting with life and happiness! The seafoam stone is a tourm, the lavender is a sapphire.

Some fun w/ my 5 stone

I didn't mean for this to be a stacker, but it goes well together, also from the jeweler today.
This is a malaya I got from barry, those things aren't black inclusions, it's actually 2-3 small bubble inclusion (look black from being a little back lit) but the color and bubbles remind me of champagne, and it's super sparkly.

Three stone spinel ring, blue and red are 6mm, both just over 1 ct, from Barry, middle stone is 6.2mm, oec style cut from Dana Weaver via MCG.

This didn't quite work out like I planned, but for the price it's a great temp setting to enjoy my stones until I figure out more permanent housing plans.

Aww this is a great post. I remember all of these when they were just baby ideas, now they're all grown. I don't know what didn't come out as planned with the three stone ring, but I really really love it.

Wow, love 'em all! You really do it up well, MTG. The stackers are super together & LOVE the Malaya. What didn't work out with the 3-stone spinels? How did you plan that didn't happen? Gosh, what a fun day it must be for you!

Thanks! I live my stackers do much I'm tempted just to make stackers out of all my next stones lol. So I can mix and match like a crazy person.

The three stone just ended up bigger than I thought it would lol. It's a bit tall and bulky and maybe too much color in one ring lol.

I love the stackers; they're so colorful and perfect for spring.

 

[juliebeth]

Eep. Sorry for all the typos In my last post. I'm not good at typing on the phone.

 

[distracts]

and maybe too much color in one ring lol.

That's akin to saying your diamond is "too big." Ain't no such thang, gurl!

Haha, you're right...what was I thinking.
Ugh..running out of room in my jewelery box. Spring cleaning needs to happen.

They turned out great! Once you get bitten by the stacker bug, it's hard to go back to regular rings!
