Would you mind telling me if that bluish-green one second from the top is a tourmaline? I've been looking around for something that color. Sort of the color of a wave when it breaks and the sun shines through it.

20211104_162558.jpg 20210130_124533.jpg Here are my largest rings. 20220726_160815.jpg

First one is my estimated 7 to 8 ct malaya garnet I bought pre loved, currently in a silver setting. She is next to get a beautiful new dress worthy of the ball. The second image is of my 6.69 ct Welo pinfire opal that none of my pictures do justice. The 3rd pic is my 6.3ct sky blue sapphire in her platinum ballerina dress.

Edited to say the images loaded in a complete different order, ha.

It’s a beryl. Doesn’t always look like that, just when the light hits it right.

I am a recent giant ring convert.
These are my largest ones - an Australian white opal ring and a (stabilised) Sleeping Beauty turquoise ring, both with diamond halos.

Love this pic. Can I request you to post to this thread and revive it? Love the thread:


Why is there not a ‘yum’ emoji?
Thank you!

The star sapphire is gorgeous! And I have a special place in my heart for ballerina style rings. Beautiful!
Thank you! I‘m rather drawn to ballerina style rings with cabs and it was love at first sight when I saw this star sapphire ring. Here is one more photo that shows the beautiful blue better:

And what a successful conversion! Hopefully more to come.

Gosh, I love this thread. Such gorgeous rings! The older I get the bigger I want, lol. I only have a couple I would consider on the larger side and the last one, the stone isn't large but the setting certainly is.

That blue sapphire and that black (blue?) opal!!!! Omg!!!!

Hehe if I met you in real life, I'd ask you to stand across the room and wave at me so I can flourish in the joy of being able to see it from a distance. I am big on being able to see gems from a distance these days :P2

All four are amazing - and a fabulous bracelet, too! The black star sapphire has a beautiful star, really nice clean lines. I hadn’t heard of a black star sapphire before, thanks for sharing.

Thank you kgizo! I really hadn't heard of it either until the star thread. I was on a long search for a charcoal gray/black stone and this one was perfect.

LOL, thanks mellowyellowgirl but I promise, that's the last of the larger sized rings. The rest are smaller.

I believe my latest two rings with CSs from Jeff White would qualify as big CS rings, even though the Pink Sapphire is only just over 7mm in size.

Details of the two rings can be found in this thread:

My Tourmaline doesn't get much wear cuz of size. I love her but feel I need to force myself to wear more often! Can I pull this off day to day?

Oooo I love this! Especially for the holidays! The next setting totally makes it wearable. Definitely rock this beauty everyday!
