2. Modern pink spinel ring with Cadillac cut diamonds, 14kt white gold. Size 7.25. fully sizable by competent bench.

Spinel is untreated. 4.41 CT, measures 9.2 x 9.5 in the setting as best as I can measure. Cadillac cuts are .42, D/E color and VS. About 5.4 mm x 2.9 mm in the bezel.

Spinel is not precision cut. You could have it recut and still come out ahead in price for the size.

I have over 3k in it. It needs a new home.

I prefer to sell the ring as a whole but will sell the center loose! I will only sell the mount loose if the center sells first.

Price: complete ring: 1650

Loose center stone only: 1000

I will not sell the Cadillac cuts loose because they are bezel set and it will destroy the mounting. The Cadillac cuts are worth the price of the ring complete, almost! The complete ring is a bargain, even if you scrap the setting and reuse the Cadillac cuts with the spinel for other projects.

3. 3 cttw platinum and sapphire bracelet, Art Deco conversion

I purchased the brooch loose and had David Klass do the conversion. The top is platinum, the bracelet is 14k white gold.

From the vendor as to the brooch stats:

2.40 carats of diamonds. The diamonds all face up beautifully white, graded F-H for color. Graded VS1-SI2 for clarity, the diamonds are all eye clean and beautifully vibrant. The majority of the larger diamonds are exceptionally clean, with VS clarity grades. A couple of the smaller diamonds are graded I1 for clarity. Sapphires not tested, assumed to be synthetic due to era.

One sapphire is missing. This occured during the conversion. It's not really noticable. Heavy, well made item. Not a flimsy conversion at all.

Price: $3200

 

[PreRaphaelite]

So gorgeous. OMG

 

[maryjane04]

Aww man that brooch to bangle conversion is one of my all time faves. I wish I was in a position to snatch it up! I am sure whoever does will be super happy

4. Mismatched tahitian pearl earrings with tanzanite trillions, set in sterling silver. Trillions are about 3.5 mm. Pearls are 10 mm to 10.5 mm when I measure. Some light blemishes. Not really noticable when worn. Pretty colors on the pearls and nice luster for tahitians.

Price: $125

Pictures are cropped and zoomed so you can see flaws. Nice earrings, but not perfect. Price reflects that.

I love this beautiful ring! How would you describe the pink? Pink is challenging to photograph. Does it lean more salmon or bubblegum pink?

Hi there, I would say it's more salmon. It's kind of like a salmon sunset color, with a bit of orange in it. It is almost padparadsha like.

In certain lighting because it is spinel, it does get moody.

This is probably the strangest color comparison ever, but I took a picture of it next to a box of Fancy Feast cat food. Fancy Feast cat food has pink on the label for some boxes. The ring looks a little bit more deep pink because it's picking up on that color, but that's more of the color family that this pink is. I was trying to give you a color shade for reference that you would be able to look at independently as well. Bizarre comparison, but hopefully it helps.

I also took a picture of the ring on my hand next to my kitchen cabinets, which are a deeper hickory wood. The ring is picking up the brown that is behind me.

Oh man I love that color! Thank you for alerting me.

My sparkly fund is super low at the moment after a summer of bling purchases. If I could swing it, I would. (Hmmm...maybe I can work on my husband...)

I'm sure someone will swoop in and buy this pronto it is sooooo gorgeous.

 

[mousey]

Interested in the pearls. Would you consider sending internationally?

 

[RunningwithScissors]

Ahhh...I keep coming back to look at this spinel. You are killing me!

 

[elizat]

I am okay with international shipping, but the free shipping was for US and I should have clarified that. My mistake!

International usually costs a bit more. I am willing to ship international, depending on the country and pay for what US-based shipping would have been for those earrings, which is about $9, if the buyer pays the balance for international.

Let me know what country and we can go from there!

5. Late art deco diamond ring, marked 14kt yellow gold and Pall, for palladium. I don't have a mandrel, but using interior measurements with calipers, somewhere between 6.75 and 7. Sizable.

Top to bottom width at the widest part, prior to the taper, 10.4 mm. Shoulder to shoulder, where the face meets with the band, 17.3 mm.

Center diamond measures about 3.8 mm in the setting. Cut looks to be a transitional to me. 10 additional accent diamonds, that measure between 1.2 and 1.5 mm in the setting, using my calipers. I would say that the diamonds are G/H/I color. Eye clean as well.

Small diamonds, but quite lively.

Price: $425

If anyone is interested in the first item, the art deco ring, or the 1.4 carat old mine cut, I am getting ready to send those out for consignment probably by next week. If there are no takers I will be moving ahead with that.

The 1.21 art deco ring and 1.4 old mine cut are withdrawn and heading to consignment.

The pearl earrings, loose emeralds, huggies and the other ring remain available.

Thanks.

New item:

Unheated and untreated CvB pale blue sapphire with an antique style cut. Old European cut halo by Yoram, ring is 18kt and platinum. Size 8, I believe, sizable with a bar in the back, within reason. I don't have the exact carat weight of the sapphire, but giving in the setting measurements. The sapphire in the setting is 9.5 by 7 mm approximately. The diamonds look to be 2.5 mm, measuring away from the prongs.

Face of the ring is 13.5 mm long by 11.3 mm wide.

This setting has a ton of little teeny tiny prongs. Each diamond is held by five little prongs and then you have all of the tiny prongs on the center stone. The workmanship on the setting is really lovely and it does look like an antique piece.

The old European halo stones, are little firecrackers. Only sapphire ring is included, not the bottom snake ring.
