This summer I was traveling and got the chance to meet up with the lovely @oldcutclubmember. I got to try on a few of her exquisite rings in real life and, wow, talk about #goals! In particular, OCCM has dinner ring with the most perfect airlines. Since then, I’ve become a little obsessed with...

Excited to share new home for my original engagement diamond (natural mined 1.51 ct I VVS2 I Ex Ex) from BN) My husband and I both thought halo could only detract from center stone, hence our initial choice. Then look what happened, Original setting was BN Studio French pave hidden halo: New...

Sharing my 8 year anniversary bling! I gave a gentle hint (CC’ed my husband on an email to IDJ. Subtle!) and he went for it! I requested 3mm, 16”, “pricescope quality” melee… honestly I had no idea that would amount to a whopping 12 carats!! Im so thrilled, I can’t believe it’s mine. I still...

Got to stop looking at instagram. This popped up and it was love at first sight. 1920s, 18ct gold and platinum with (no treatment) Ruby and old cut diamonds. I put the no treatment bit in brackets because I have just received it and not had an independent appraisal yet - this is the sellers...

Last year I bought my first OMC. A slightly elongated N/VVS1. She was a beauty but over time I realized I prefer a more square OMC , maybe lower colored... I had no immediate plan to get one but then that dang IG bling slinger Sin City posted a 3.20 Q/R Si1 OMC. 8.93x 9.04. I tried SO hard to...

I have been meaning to post this! Our daughter got engaged. I think I now want and EOC stone too . She was so surprised and it looks beautiful on her. I need to find a clear shot of it on her hand but I do have several on mine .. . I love to try her on whenever I get to see her. She’s an old...

I purchased this marquise eternity ring knowing it was probably going to be a remake. As I suspected, it was uncomfortable and bulky. David Klass is my trusted resource and knew it would be executed perfectly. I provided an inspiration image and added milgraining to enhance the undulating lines...

Well that's about the least inspiring thread title possible for what is a glorious eternity band! I've been collecting these diamonds for years - never really making it a priority - more just a case of my DH telling me from time to time that he had nothing particular for a birthday or...

I’m not sure if this merits its own thread, but I’m so thrilled with this piece. It’s a holy grail item for me! I’ve always adored celestial pieces…and I’ve particularly admired the antique diamond crescents that adorn Pricescope. They’ve also continued to climb in price as they’ve grown in...

PS, I’ve been wishing for a bit of sparkle on the wrist for some time now. The only two wrist-things in my current collection are both solid YG bangles (Cartier JUC and Hermes CDC) and whilst they’ve both served me well, I’ve been dreaming about dusting my wrist with some diamonds. Inspired by...

Just received my 25th anniversary dream ring. James Allen 1.5 carat Cushion cut 7 stone ring in Platinum. I am so over the moon! Please share yours as well.

Hi All - just picked up my ring from Maytal and wanted to show it off here! I am thrilled with how it turned out! Maytal helped me through the whole process and was great to work with. I bought the stone from her, a 3.25 K SI1, and she paired it beautifully with this design! It was exactly what...

Only giving this its own thread because I didn’t want to clog up another thread with all these pictures. Came upon this eternity band recently and it stopped me in my tracks, first of course the red stones that were sold to me as spinel but I would bet the farm they are rubies, doesn’t matter...

I posted my new ruby pendant yesterday but in order for that pendant to happen, I had to move the center diamond from my Calla ring setting. This left me with a gorgeous but empty setting. I couldn't leave it empty. What to put in it? I have pretty much every color imaginable except for black or...

Just wanted to share my PS journey since it took me ten years to get here. Could say it's been a (costly) lesson of self discovery regarding my personal jewelery style. Cause in the course of gaining knowledge about how to identify extremely ideal cut rounds i also discovered what I like and...

My five little ACAs are finally in their home and my original e-ring is now a pendant. DK was incredible patient throughout (probably a dozen emails about a simple five stone) and executed perfectly. I vascillated a lot on how to set the stones, and ultimately defaulted to a Tiffany style...

Sharing my new ACA; 0.4ct E VS2. Here it is and thanks for looking! It’s set into a petite 950 platinum/ruthenium cut-down pave setting. The shank is 1.9mm wide with twenty-two 1.5mm melee stones at .30carats, all D-E-F VVS2, excellent cut. My goal was for a small solitaire with as much...

Hey PSers! DB here, I'm GliderPoss' other half! In planning a proposal, I knew that making time to post here for you all to relish in the story (and the BLING) was of the utmost importance so, I've taken over her account and here I am! A thread here is nothing without photos and, I promise...

Our 20th anniversary is this year, and my husband told me some time ago he wanted to upgrade my engagement ring to celebrate. I did what any research nerd would do. Years of diamond research! https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/an-upgrade-journey-…-from-a-research-perspective.277780/...

So excited my pendant is finally here! We recently had to sell a family home on Cape Cod to support my 93 yo Mom’s move to assisted living in June. While we all knew it is the right thing to do for our Mom, it was really hard. I wanted to design something that would always remind me of the...

For my first custom project of 2023 and birthday present to myself, I decided to set a few of the small gemstones I’ve been collecting into stacking rings. [Warning: photo overload coming up :P2] The gems: 0.62 ct natural light gray diamond 0.84 ct Muzo emerald (minor oil) 1.66 ct Ceylon purple...

Hi Everyone! Over the past few months I’ve been trying to find my perfect Whiteflash studs. I started with smaller j colors, then went to bigger I color pair, and then a bit bigger again in a different setting and I finally found my perfect studs. They are both I color ACAs. One is 1.15 and the...
