Bought this on the weekend. It's aquamarine and diamonds in WG. It's my first colored stone and first halo and I didn't think I'd ever go for such a large stone (9 x 7 mm). So many firsts, I'm not totally sure but I think I adore it.

This little project took some time. I won the deco platinum ring in an auction, then got lucky and snapped up the perfect Jeff White blue zircon off LT (my fave gem, as some of you know... :) ). Then sent it all off to DK to set and make new claw prongs. Just got it back today, and I'm so happy with the result!

Ok, I passed on the poodle necklace, but I did purchase this one :)

I just love the slightly asymatrical shape and the mixed cuts. Plus, it's set in rose gold. So even though it's another floral motif, I hope it's different enough from my platinum floral diamond necklace.

Love this. I have a butterfly necklace that sort of reminds me of your necklace (I know it's not a butterfly but that is what came to my mind when I saw your lovely new purchase) and now you have given me the idea to get it out and enjoy it today. Thank you. Hope you are enjoying your lovely new necklace!

I agree that this doesn't seem like a typical channel setting. My channel set band has empty space in between the diamonds instead of metal. Yours is so unique and gorgeous!

I just saw this post and wanted to reply. I have a ring that is set in a similar way and actually has slim prongs under the side channels. It isn't a true channel-set ring either.

I am very impatiently waiting for the necklace to arrive :P2

Is there a picture of your butterfly necklace? I would love to see it!

Sure thing. Here it is with our dear Fred modeling it just last year. Miss him so much.

I was seriously considering to purchase a ring from victor barbone. They send me a video of many rings but the one I want has no chunky facets which is what I’m looking for in an oec. I’ll share the video here for eye candy. The other ring has those chunky facets but they cost more than what I’d like to spend.

Sorry I cannot attach the video. Le sigh...

The middle one is Laney which is the ring I originally like.

Here are a few others that they recommend:



I’m curious. Is there any that you like?

Here is Laney which I was going to purchase but change my mind after seeing a few videos they sent me. It doesn’t have that flowery facets that I like.

She’s a beaut isn’t she? It doesn’t have the flowery facets though but it maybe harder to take a picture of.

Waiting stinks.

Aww hang in there....think of it as delightful anticipation and the thrill of the search and hunt can be much of the fun. I know it is hard searching and waiting but it will all be worth it in the end!

My latest purchase - a 22k gold Indian ‘polki’ bangle. Polki jewelry is made of unfinished natural diamonds and is essentially uncut diamonds mined from the earth in a natural way without any enhancements...this one has a little over 5c of raw diamonds

@Bluegemz Wow the colour of that spess is a real slam dunk, which is why I love them so much!

@EllenS1 I am absolutely in love with your bracelet. So beautiful, congrats!
