Wearing the FCDs today overlooking an island within a lake within an island with a lake within an island - a volcano within a volcano, and a lake within a lake! This is the view of Taal in the Philippines.

No but a zillion years ago before we had the kid and were too scared to fly 8 hours with a kid we used to go to Singapore every year.

I loved visiting Poh Heng for their 22 carat gold stuff which was really pretty!

Yes so intricate!

Today it's a blue zircon cut by Jeff Davies to fit into an existing platinum setting which used to hold a 2 carat radiant cut diamond. The bling setting completely overwhelmed the diamond so I took it out but the setting was too expensive to have it sitting there unloved. Jeff very kindly did a pretty good job of cutting the stone without the setting in hand. The gemstone sits slightly lower perhaps than it should but still looks pretty.

That is gorgeous @BlingObsession! And since it's a zircon it will probably benefit from sitting lower.

Thanks MellowYellow - following are a couple of pics in the radiant in its new home - which I'm much happier with - it was reset 3 times in total before I found something that I loved. It is a G colour stone and I don't see any of the tint that is showing in my rather crappy photos but you get the idea. It's gorgeous in real life - white bright and sparkly - even though it is the 'crushed ice' so despised by PS hahha.

Thanks - the radiant basket ended up more square than I realised it was going to be so none of my bands sat flush next to it - and the gap was just too big for a "rock the gap" look. This V band took several goes to get it right too but once it was finished, I was thrilled with the result. It's now almost my favourite wedding set at the moment. :Up_to_something:

I'e opened this thread a million times and I see your post and think yay something new.. Then a second later I realise it's not. Do you know what my fallacy is?

I get so distracted by the setting in this beautiful picture I keep forgetting to look at the rings!!! So every time I see it again I focus on the rings for a split second before getting distracted again and remembering it's not a new picture because I recognise the background :mrgreen2:

Both rings are not really new, yes! In fact, by now you might have noticed, I wear almost the same rings all the time. Lol.

Anyway here are the rings which I am wearing again today - without the background.

My Merelani mint garnet by Roger Dery with diamond trap sides - sadly my photos look much nicer on my computer than they do once they are uploaded onto PS and OMG they are HUGE - sorry about that!

I love your solitaire peridot in yellow gold! I don’t think we can get the lovely high carat gold here in the U.S. 18 k is considered high carat. People tend to buy platinum if they want anything more “special”.

Today I'm wearing a golden grossular garnet from Brad at The Gem Trader. The setting by Jeff Davies.

The stone fluoresces the most amazing peachy/pink - almost Pad sapphire colour - under UV - can't capture it on my phone camera though.

Yes, mixing platinum, gold and silver together lol. Native American Coral with star sapphire ring, and moonstone earrings . These are the moonstones which my mother brought back from Sri Lanka. She got totally ripped off for these, ( not top quality but pretty )but I wanted to honor her effort, so I had them set in gold, with a little sapphire in between, in an easy going style which is commensurate with the quality. I wear these quite a lot these days.

And today I'm wearing a 3-stone pink spinel ring (the centre from Gene at Precision Gems and the two sides from Brad at the Gem Trader. I'm also wearing a lovely pendant from Percossi Papi in Italy. I know that the stones are nowhere near PS quality but the pendant is beautiful and I have very happy memories of my husband buying it for me in Rome.
