I decided to set my AGL heated Ceylon sapphire like this using platinum head and darken 14K gold shank.

The "twins" are set in slightly darken 18k white gold.

I apologize for such a long post. Can you tell that I'm just mad about this metal choice!?

What’s the background of the chrysoberyl ring? Original setting? I don’t see many chrysoberyl in that type of setting so I’m curious.
 
And the last one that’s ready—a moonstone ring made from a pearl clasp! Been waiting since November!!!!

It’s an antique setting I bought ages ago to put a pad sapphire in, but it didn’t do the pad justice. The original stone was a watery windowed aquamarine.

So first is the original setting, the 1st incarnation, and what I’m trying now.

You are busy! I often wonder what it’s like to shop your own jewelry box!?
 
Reposting from the Cartier thread:
My first emerald piece! Green is my favourite colour in gemstones and one day, I’d love to own a gumball of an emerald cabochon (or sugarloaf) but for now, this pre-loved Cartier Ellipse ring scratches that itch.

The emerald itself is quite battered and a bit loose in its setting, but I’m careful not to wear it when doing anything laborious.

I’m also surprised by the weight of the item - it’s about 8.5g and 3mm thick, so it took my finger a few days to get used to the chunkiness. But it feels like a lovely, weighty piece on the hand.

To be honest, I haven’t seen enough emeralds to know how this one fares, but I do like the colour and saturation of the stone.

Hey! What about the band? Lush blue!

That's my new emerald band, bought it on Instagram! The emeralds go almost 3/4 of the way around, set in 14k white gold =)2

I love remodeling jewelry! My husband much prefers this hobby to remodeling the house. I should do a thread on my different projects.

I have an easier time visualizing in 3-d than 2-d, so I admire your talent designing from scratch.
 
A sunny day here! My Spinel Craze bangle - spinels in 18K rose gold, with five tiny diamonds, one aquamarine and one colour change garnet.
