10 year of PS Family photos

[MakingTheGrade]

I realized that as of last March I’ve been on PS for 10 years! My how time flies.

In that time I’ve gone through various styles inspired by many different other posters.

This is my bling fam as it stands now.
Top to bottom :
Omega watch with teensy diamonds
Various bands
Alan the snake ring, pad and tsav, tsav and opal, and crystal opal ring (my row of my more quirky colored stone rings)
ACA open diamond bangle.
Diamond pendant, oec dinner ring, FLBY diamond ring, 5 stone trellis (solitaire setting with a sim, still hunting for the right diamond to put in there..)
Spess, rubellite, red spinel rings and a rose quarts pendant and jade pendant.
Star sapphire, periwinkle sapphire, unheated Burma color change sapphire.
Tsav, mint garnet, Columbian emerald, tsav, aquaprase.
Diamond bracelet of E full cut diamonds.
Synthetic/lab travel rings
Jade bangle

It’s clear I’m more a colored stone girl at heart. It’s what brought me to Ps!

Feeling a little thanos...

I actually first came to PS hunting for a padparadcha sapphire. Along the way fell in love with green garnets. And last year finally assembled one of my holy grail rings which combines my ideal
Pad and tsav colors. I actually wear it more than my diamond rings.

My most prized ring, even though it’s not the most expensive. It’d be the hardest to replace/recreate I think.

What a beautiful collection! That red spinel ring is TDF!

Thanks! It’s made by David Klass. I love the trap sides and swoopy setting.

So many rings. Not enough fingers!

Congrats on 10 years! Your red spinel three stone ring is also one of my favorites .

What box do you store your rings in? It looks nice, I am shopping around for one.

 

[GlitterInMyHair]

What a spectacular collection! So much color and variety.

Can you post a close up and hand shot of the diamond band with mixed cuts?

Thanks! The box is actually from amazon. I don’t wear earrings and don’t have many bracelets or necklaces so I really just needed something for rings.

Fab collection, I am very intrigued by Alan the snake ring though!

 

[CravingDiamonds]

Gorgeous collection! Thank you for sharing.

You have a gorgeous and vibrant collection
I looooove this thread

 

[missy]

Congratulations on a decade enjoying PS. You have a beautiful colorlicious collection!

Fab collection, I am very intrigued by Alan the snake ring though!

I nabbed Alan the second I saw him. Kind of an impulse buy which I do not at all regret as I still haven’t seen a ring like it. He’s very flexible and made of rhodium plated gold with diamonds and a tsav on his head and chartreuse diamond eyes.

What a wonderful collection, MTG! And congratulations on 10 years and all the contributions you've made to this community. I was going to list my favorite piece - but by the time that list alone had blown out to 6 or 7 I decided just to say - I love them all!

Happy PS Anniversary! Beautiful collection.

 

[Tekate]

Happy anniversary.. I think each of your beautiful jewels speaks to me, says "Tekate, have MTG send them to you"!!!! (soft music etc)..

All kidding aside, your collection is magnificent and each stone is beautiful.. I admire your taste and appreciate your posting your collection.

Again happy anniversary and thank you!

Haha. I mean I AM due for some spring cleaning and will likely be refreshing some listings once I get around to it.

Thanks everyone! It’s so weird to me to think it’s been 10 years!! That’s Med school, residency, and fellowship combined! Or a 5th grader!

I have a crush on the snake and the diamond and red spinel ring.

 

[GlitterInMyHair]

Sure thing.

Thank you

Thanks! I started off pretty classic but definitely have gotten quirkier over time I like the idea of having really unique pieces.

Haha sometimes I stare at it when I need a distraction :p

Also I can’t claim credit for the red spinel ring design. I got it from @D&T
