Hi everyone, long time no see! I've been on hiatus from PS for quite a long while but wanted to return to show you guys another Victor Canera masterpiece to commemorate the birth of my baby girl who was born in August 2020. The project started in Dec 2020 when I reached out to Victor about...

I've always admired antique cluster rings, but I have never owned an all diamond one. I had these diamonds from various pieces that I own, and decided to use them to create a cluster ring. I sent everything to David Klass and he sourced a few extra small OEC's that I needed. Per DK the center...

Lots of nice 'incoming' posts over the last week! :cool2: I think it's about time to add yet another! Many of you are already familiar with the twists and turns during our search. But we finally received the finished rings from Whiteflash, and my fiancé and I are both very happy with...

As some of you might remember, a little while ago my dad presented me with a beautiful ruby and diamond ring, as a symbolic gift on the World Cancer Day. It was a gift to remind me that I am loved and supported while fighting breast cancer. I made a thread on that ring, which can be found here...

She’s pink, and she’s a topaz. She’s Jennifer Topaz! You can call her JTo. She hails from the Victorian block. From the lovely Franziska Vintage Jewels... Pink topaz measures approximately 9.8 x 5 mm with a lovely and interesting elongated oval cut... .87 to .97 carats by calculation so I...

From T & Co: total weight 1.19 (.27 round total, .92 marquise total)

I wanted a new ring to celebrate my job promotion and surviving 2020 (LOL). I had been sitting on a stone my friend Sam cut for me over a decade ago waiting for the right moment. I worked with the folks over at Midas Manufacturing https://midasmanufacturing.com/ to help me create the perfect...

I’ve been trying to limit my social media, because I’m just too addicted, but I’m so glad I was on Instagram when this showed up. This ring took my breath away when it appeared on my phone, and I was completely mesmerized by the old mines and the details on the setting. I love detailed...

Hello everyone! Hope you are all doing well and staying safe. I had to pop by and share Selene, my new moonstone goddess ring by Daniel M. I bought the stone loose, and contacted Daniel M. for the setting project about month ago. I've always wanted a moonstone ring, but it took me forever to...

Hi All, I wanted to share with you 2 much loved diamond rings that I have recently had remodelled and I am absolutely thrilled with the results. My first ring is a 1ctw 5 stone from Whiteflash that I've had for a few years. I was finding that I was wearing it less and less as the setting just...

I pulled my 2.6 carat pear out of a yellow gold bezel and worked with David (who was great) to create this new home for her. It’s platinum, tri-wire with two French cut side stones. These are stills from David’s video. I’ll post my own when the ring arrives!

First of all, a HUGE thank you to everyone for their feedback, suggestions, and help in my first thread. Here is my first post, I was going to just continue on that thread, but this really deserves it's own thread. If you'd like to catch up on the back story here you go. While this entire...

A couple of years ago I bought the Whiteflash shared prong bangle in the 1.5 ctw size and, of course, I love it. And ever since, I've been considering stacking options, and I've been stuck on the Whiteflash scattered diamond bangle. I've looked everywhere at options -- other scattered diamond...

I am new to this forum so I'm not certain if this is how I'm supposed to share this, but someone told me on another thread I should share my engagement ring! My fiance had this made based on an Edwardian era three stone he had seen and loved. I love the eight prongs and old world proportions!

After many long months DW’s quest for her 40th wedding anniversary upgrade is finally over. It was the beautiful and talented Amy Phillips at David Klass who found it for us! Amy knew we were looking for an OEC as David had been helping us with our search. She was meeting with one of her Jeweler...

A little over a year ago, my husband gave me this 25.65 ct citrine from Bahia, Brazil, cut by Troy Richardson of Excess Design. He cut in in the “Supernova” oval by Robert Long, which I love because of the broad, geometric faceting similar to old cut stones. It even has a culet! Troy's photo...

My husband surprised me with diamond earrings for Christmas, and I picked out these beauties from Whiteflash. I went with the .75 ctw, and I honestly think I would have been happy with the .5s; the spread on these is even bigger than I was expecting (though I think my earlobes are relatively...

Here it is...... my Victor Canera ring. It is a 2.23 G, VS1 center stone. Get ready for picture overload!

A few weeks ago I purchased a pre-loved Fabergé Egg Pendant. It is 18K rose gold, diamonds and enamel. It was part impulse buy, part practical purchase (I don't have a pendant necklace and really need one for Zoom meetings!) and part a marker of a big event in my life. I was recently appointed...

I have always been drawn to diamonds with more unusual facet pattern arrangements, and I especially love the "scissor cut" look that some of the branded diamonds that emerged in the last 20 years show. So I have been on the lookout for my perfect scissor cut syle diamond for a good few years...

It seems like there have been a lot of 5 stone rings lately and I just wanted to add mine. I don't think I've posted since 2005 but I lurk daily :) 15 years ago for my 10th anniversary, I purchased a Vatche 3 stone ring with three GIA diamonds. (I went with a pricescope vendor at the time that...

Hello, I had posted on RockyTalky before deciding on this beautiful ring & wanted to share some pics. I was so nervous but the diamond is stunning! It is a 1.028 carat ID/ID/G, VVS1. They included a scope and I can see the beautiful hearts and arrows. It sparkles like crazy! I am happy with...

This is a Christmas gift for my Mother-in-Law who loves jewelry, but doesn't really have much of her own. The Details Size 6.75 18K Gold 1.75 ct Chrome Green Tourmaline from Precision Gem (purchased in 2018) Side stones are K OEC, 0.30 ct each (tcw 0.60) Made by David Klass I'll post some...

There is a story, so skip to the second post if you’re bored already and just want to see pics. =)2 As I mentioned in other threads I have been working on a super ideal cut and it’s finally here. I haven’t worn an MRB in almost 4 years and I wanted to get it right this time. I figured out I...

This really has been the longest project I’ve ever worked on. I guess I’ll start with the very beginning. Just over a year ago, I purchased a gorgeous 1.59ct, O colored, ACV from August Vintage Inc (now Distinctive Gems). Unsurprisingly, @Rhino was a peach to work with and was happy to send me...
