Gorgeous, @voce! That turned out amazing. I just love the happy spirit of it.
Thanks! I'm going to have to baby this ring because the center is sphene, so it'll be occasional wear only, but it gives me such a happy vibe just to look at the pictures, I'm sure that I'll love her in person!

Ah! A sphene ! I was trying to figure out what the beautiful center stone is. That’s going to be extra fun to wear because of the fire!

Didn’t wear this today, but got some quick pics while I was dropping stuff off at the bank.

Tiffany & Co. ruby and diamond ring from the Victoria collection, circa 2001. Excuse the terrible bank lighting!

Feeling Fall coming because the light is getting more golden, the nights cooler. Going with a Fall-ish vibe today. Spessartite, 18k and diamond earrings and spess beads, and a yellow/white jade bangle.

Here is my new-to-me 14K white gold ballerina ring. It was a pre-owned ring and I had replaced some of the stones with demantoid garnet melee and a pink/purple sapphire center which were sourced from Yvonne Raley on Etsy. I just love how sparkly this ring is! FEEEDBF3-7322-4F46-B834-B6758087F2AB.jpeg 9C50EB64-2E78-41DB-9890-4E99EA6763A0.jpeg

Little Debbie, I’m just now seeing your ballerina ring. How pretty! I love the color combination with the demantoids and sapphire! The balance of the design is so lovely!

My sunflower ring is here. I couldn't capture the brilliance properly on camera, but I see red, green, and yellow from the sphene.

Thanks, Rubybrick! They have an incredible presence for their size :) I'm just sorry I didn't get more of them while Yvonne had them in stock.

I LOVE this ring! :love:

Aww thank you! I remember agonising about the size of the halo on this and in the end opted for smaller three pointers! The other halo I was considering would have been crazy HUGE!

Your sunflower is bursting with scintillation!! So pretty. Did you contrast the sphene with tsavorite? What are the green stones?

At the time I commissioned the ring I went with demantoid melee to match the sphene's high dispersion. I was thinking "full green dispersion fire ring" go! go!
In hindsight, I could have saved money had I gone with the tsavorite. And tsavorite is harder, too. But I hadn't owned demantoid before this ring and wondered what it looked like in person. If you focus your eye on the small demantoids they're real sparklers, too, but the sphene is so much bigger that it kind of steals the demantoids' thunder. :P2 Indoors, I think the demantoids are a prettier color than the sphene imo.

Just noticed this was zircon. An unusual but pretty color, almost peachy. I'm glad you finally decided on the halo, it looks nice with the zircon!
