I inadvertently created a duplicate thread which has since been removed. Thank you Ella! :wavey: So here's a new and separate one showing only the diamonds while the rest of the coloured stones remain in CS. I don't have the rings in hand yet so these are the jeweller's pictures.

The first three are of my AVC which was purchased way before GOG coined them officially as AVCs. A 1.6 ct L (forgot the clarity, either VS2 or SI1) AVC with 2 side cushion cut red spinels. When it was previously set in white gold, the L faced up very white. I've since changed my mind and decided to play up the lower colour in 18K yellow gold and it worked better than I expected.

Up next is officially my e-ring but I switch all my rings around so it doesn't really matter. The EC is from JA and reset into a Harry Winston inspired butterfly-like setting. The original had marquises and pears but I went with all rounds instead.

Chronological, I love both of these - they're so classic! I especially love the cushion trio: what a scrumptious pairing!

:-o

Those spinels!!! To die for. Now I realize why I've stopped frequenting the CS subforum... too many things I want! Too many holy grails quickly jump on my list. Red spinels like those would certainly be a holy grail! Amazing Chrono! :love:

Oh my. . . I've often thought of doing a 3 stone with red spinels. Absolutely gorgeous, Chrono!

My jaw dropped. Literally. And I said OH MY GOD out loud, and called DH from across the house to come see. Those spinels make for THE most beautiful and striking threestone I have EVER seen. Including mine. That RED....
:love: :love: :love: :love: :love: :love:

Chrono, I bow to your taste - it is exquisite!!

Dear goodness :cheeky: each ring has its own beauty and charm . The yellow gold with the spinels and avc is such a stunning combo then the emerald with the exquisite setting!! Will you wear them as a RHR and ER at the same time? I would :appl:

I am surprised by the warm responses and such kind words here in SMTB. I rarely come to this section of the forum. Thank you to Circe, Motownma, DerbyGal, YennyFire, Niel, Catmom, Stargurl, Sapphirering, Laila, Julie, DS, Bright Ice, and 4Diamond.

GemFever,
Come play in the coloured gemstone world. It's a rainbow over there. :cheeky:

Badabling,
The AVC measures 7 mm.

Yssie,
You are so funny! Your comment brought a smile to my face, together with a chuckle.

Woofmama,
I love classic 3 stones too but I wanted it big and with a strong presence. I wasn't sure if I was done with my AVC upgrade yet but since I decided on it, there's no reason to wait any longer for the final setting. The 2 spinels have been waiting for many years to be set. I love them very much and they deserve a spectacular centre stone.

YT,
Yes, they are for real. Perhaps you can try them on during another Seattle GTG. :tongue:

SandyCheeks,
Of course they will be worn together. One on each hand! :bigsmile:

OH wow, wow, wow! These are both SO gorgeous! I especially love the three-stone... three-stones are my favorite and colored stones are my other favorite, and this combines them in such a smashing way. Lovely!

Mayk,
My EC doesn't hold a candle to yours. What would I do to have a monster like yours. :naughty:

Mom2Boys, Dreamer, Missy, Distracts, Snickle, and Marcy,
Thanks so much! I can't wait to wear these myself. I hope to receive them before the end of the week.
