THUD!

I love the paraiba, always love Gene's work and you set it to perfection! The melee is amazing too, btw, small yet I can't imagine all that pave or the color scheme without them :appl:

It looks very beautiful on your pretty hand! Congratulations on a truly custom and unique jewel :love: :clap:

So pretty and glowy and just crazy best colors of sprinkles.
I love the soft rounded pillow of the "halo".
That'd a winner.

Perfect description - dipped in colored sugar! I too would like more photos - perhaps one in normal, indirect daylight? I find it hard to tell the true colors with such bright light...or maybe its the angle of the light? :confused:

TL,
The Chryso is in the bank but when I go there, I'll try to take a picture of the 2 rings together.

Minou,
It is rainy today but there are a few pictures taken in normal indirect sunlight. The paraiba just doesn't want to co-operate when the sun is out, making everything look over-exposed.

Thank you! Much easier to see the true colors now. I forget - is your center stone a Paraiba or a cuprian? I love the fact that you lived on the wild side with your colored sugar!

Paraiba tourmaline, although of Mozambique origin.

Here's a direct sun shot, where it shows some sparkle. Full hand, for your reference.

I guess the days are gone when we referred to those stones as cuprian, eh?! That means I have two very large, very clean, vivid Paraibas... :wink2:

I am only stating what is listed in Gene's paperwork, unless you question his judgement, knowledge, and experience. :cheeky:

The color is fascinating. It's like neon bright light. Thanks for additional photos. I keep coming back for more pics as it's a really stunning ring.

Put a warning on the caption to wear dark sunglasses if viewing, lol. In all seriousness though, you have impeccable taste in not just gems, but settings, and the quality and standards for which they are made. You truly have a world-class collection. Enjoy this latest piece.

Now, time to set that tsavorite. :naughty:
