Your Latest Jewelry Purchases/Things You're Considering....

As a follow up to my last post in April, I finally received my finished moval ring maybe 2 weeks ago and have been lazy to post :cheeky:

But here she is, my new (antique) 1.98ct N SI2 moval diamond from Gilded Lane in an antique inspired platinum setting with tapered diamond shoulders, hidden halo and engraving by David Klass. I purchased the diamond as a Mother's Day + life milestone gift to myself this year and I'm so pleased with how it turned out.

I can't even describe how bright and insanely fiery the moval is, and the setting just makes me swoon every time I wear it o_O I think I have almost walked into people on the street because I'm busy staring at it lol

This needs its own thread in SMTB!!!

Thank you @MissGotRocks! It fits pretty well on my right hand. I will have to size it down for my left. Of course it's 100 degrees here so I may wait until things cool down. I felt how lucky am it fits on my pinky and I love it there!

Honestly, it would look good on just about any finger you choose!

Do any of the diamonds in your halo fluoresce too?
 
Just a few are faint. I called and asked customer service to check in about doing all fluorescent melee. Here’s a thing about Ritani that I’ve seen. They do a very good job in setting rings but their customer service poor. I had to make three calls to request this with no promised follow up from their end. Honestly, I think I’m about done using them for that reason.

I just bought this beautiful engraved sterling silver locket for my mom for her 73rd birthday. It’s very large and it’s engraved 1938 on the back. I’m planning to put a picture of my sons when they were little boys on one side and a picture of our family dog on the other, who is basically her child.

And our dog, Loki the miniature poodle.

I am sure your Mom will love the gift!
 
Waiting on these gorgeous GSS pearls from Andrew!! Just shy of 9mm. I am setting them as studs, my favorite earring style. Should be a couple weeks before I have them.

Your new pearls are amazing! Love the saturated color
 
Thank you, @MMtwo. This is my first pair of GSS. I have champagne SS studs and I’m curious to see how the two differ.
From @molinePDG,
Overtone is neutral and light-to-medium rose, no green in this pair. The surfaces are very clean and the luster is very good.

It actually seems like they tried to follow your request but misunderstood and did the opposite. Because what are the chances that in this many melee none are fluorescent?

In any case, the ring is stunning!

This is beautiful and wow, is it large!

I have a mini poodle too, plus another that's 50% but doesn't have the poodle look. Such a great breed!

When I asked, the CSM was very hesitant and said they usually don't use flourescent melee in the Masterworks collection. I have a couple of faint or medium. I would have been fine with a "no" to full flourescent. However, they said they would check and call back. Two days later no call, so I called back in and they said they had emailed, but had no answer, and they were going to production in a bit and would call me back and check for me, and then did not. No call no email. My ring shipped 2 days later. It is a well made pretty ring, but dissapointed in the lack of communication. This is my 23rd purchase with Ritani. I have never made any extra request before.

Thank you, I am very happy with the ring.

I wanted something larger to fit her proportions and so the pictures would be larger. I’m going to buy a very long rollo chain so it hangs lower and she can easily open it to look at the pictures . But I wanted substantial, like a talisman a medieval witch might wear.

Loki is a wonderful pet and he had made a huge difference in my mom’s life. She sites in him and he is her love child. His only bad habit is he hates other dogs lol
