I think it looks awesome in rose gold. It makes the color pop IMO.

Cheers TL! I have to admit, I think it looks quite diamond-ish in a couple pics..

Oh, AJ, it looks yummy! I think the rose gold brings out the character in that stone.

AJ and TL, those mint green tourmalines in rose gold are absolutely delish!!

I never would have put it together.

Ignore the purists and matchy-poo fanatics. Don''t follow the trend. Create your own!

I never liked gold, but I have become drawn to rose gold lately. I love its coppery tone. It really does go with just about anything!

AJ that''s gorgeous! You should set it in the rose gold - that color combo is divine. Where is your setting from?

PlatinumRock, I know what you mean - I''m a white gold wear through and through, but something about rose gold lately....

Browneyedgirl, I have a confession. My current e-ring is in platinum. But I''m not even going to set my new stone in it. I''m having a new setting done in rose gold. All of the metal I''m wearing right now are platinum and palladium. But I LOVE how the rose gold is going to stand out. I don''t know anyone who is wearing rose gold right now. And I kinda like it.

Thanks Mochi, platinum, packrat and BEG - maybe I will have to set it, considering the great response!

BEG, this was a cheapy one actually from GOG - I once had a small princess of hearts diamond in it, which I traded in.

I''ve been bookmarking things for ideas for when I *finally* redo my engagement ring..I love this so much I marked it! I''d thought I wanted a bi-color tourmaline, but I really wanted a round stone..this mint green/rose gold sets my heart all aflutter!

It''s a peachy gray diamond upgrade. It might be ready at the end of this week. I can''t wait to see it in rose gold!

Katebar, that blue topaz ring is my inspiration too - great minds think alike

although it''ll be for my opal - still undecided on whether to keep it all white gold, or do the rose gold border

I REALLY love that stone with the rose gold. It is stunning. Are you actually going to set it into rose gold someday?

katebar, I know that pic you were trying to post, and really like it.
I think your ring sounds really pretty - and how funny is your hubs that he wants to be in the ring?!

Whats his birthstone? You could just tell him that you need another ring to represent him....?

Thanks Coats! I think light blue would look nice too, very feminine. I'm sure you've been asked before, but whats the blue one in your av?
Ya, arrghhh - I need more...well, everything
2.gif


BEG - do you have a pic of your opal? I'd think RG would be quite complementary with opals, no..?

Hi flowerladytoo - I was going to have it set in YG, as the jeweller I'd like to use doesn't yet use RG. But after everyone's reaction, I'm thinking it'd be nice to have something different and go with the RG. Likely can't do this one until later this year though..thanks for asking!

Thats right, sorry I have seen this pretty!

Hrmmm..its a lil hard to say..is there any pink in there?
I'm afraid I'm gonna have to defer to the experts on this one, as I know nothing of how opaque stones perform, sorry!

I do think the YG current setting looks pretty with it, and RG is really not all that different..
what do you think, and what kinda setting would it be?

It''s so hard to say. There are flashes of red, but mostly it''s very cool -blues and greens as you can see. The setting I had in mind was the one katebar posted on this page (it''s OneGarnetGirl''s blue topaz ring), but I''m debating on whether to keep that bezeled part rose gold or make it white.

Hmm these are the tough decisions I like though!

Exactly, its nice to ponder these sorta tough decisions

I do like that setting, but I''m keen to hear what others have to say on the RG.

Hi B.E.G,

Definitely those in light pink such as morganite. I have a morganite ring set in rose gold and they are such a perfect match. The rose gold brings out the pink-ness of the morganite, if you know what I mean.
