David Klass Montana Sapphire Five Stone & Spinel Three Stone

[D&T]

Re: David Klass Montana Sapphire Five Stone & Spinel Three S

Freke- the last picture is pretty much all the rings I own now ( a couple of other rings are for sale), and the only band I wear now is the plain 3.5mm tiff&Co Plat/YG with milgrain that is shown above. it goes with everything. Bad enabler I love that band and it looks to go with everything! I don't know how you guys do it with more than four rings, I would be paralyzed with indecision on which rings to wear each day and I don't do RHR unfortunately.

TyTy- How are you doing?! thank you, small collection but I love them all now and fits with my simple no frill lifestyle - I don't collect and store a lot of things in my life. The took a few years, resets, after selling, and acquiring and selling and losing more moolah, but hey I don't splurge on anything else so its all good...joy in the journey righty? Looking at those rings makes me happy and all worth the zig zags.

nice job!
but i'm particularly smitten with the spine....!

Re: David Klass Montana Sapphire Five Stone & Spinel Three S

I don't do RHR either. Well, one of them I do, but that's because it'll fly off my left hand!

Only ONE band?! Lol! We need to get some enablers over here!

Re: David Klass Montana Sapphire Five Stone & Spinel Three S

MZ- thank you, I love the color and cut of that spinel, its been a fun ring to wear and the half moons sets it off nicely (Not too sparkly to steal the show) but enough bling for me, and honestly I was never really an oval fan until the spess and this spinel, although it does show a little more shadowing more than I'd like. I had contemplated turning to E/W from time to time as the shadowing is much lessen when oriented that way.

Freke- haha I'm going to stick to my ground, although I do have one last pretty on the way from JbyG...getting it resized, and done and done... though this band wont go with anything but I loved the shape color all of it.

I caved after viewing hundreds of time... thought it wouldn't work out since the size is a bit big and being an eternity, I had to remove one of the bezel diamond and Grace said she could do it, won't change the design to much.

Re: David Klass Montana Sapphire Five Stone & Spinel Three S

DandT-THANKYOU for not setting any halos! I absolutely love all of your settings-classic and timeless. That squarecut 5 stone is to die for and is oneof my fave CS ring on the site. Digging the the red spinel as well The side diamonds are really beautiful. I love the round 5 stone-so classic. Wish I had 4.5 size fingers so I could borrow . Congrats.

Hi Acinom

I love your new pieces and wish I can play in your jewelry box

My Yellow semi bezel is consider my "e-ring" I usually wear that for more active days and when I am required the use of my hands for vigorous activity or traveling since its a very robust ring and don't worry too much about knocking it around. The other three since they are pronged set really gets worn equally and mostly just to work and kids activity (bystander of course). My yellow sits more in my box than the others until the trips and events come around.

If I were you I'd have a super hard time, because you have some truly large and magnificent pieces... how do you decide?

Re: David Klass Montana Sapphire Five Stone & Spinel Three S

Beautiful. Stylistically, they are all so different, but equally well designed and crafted. Those are all stunners, but I won't be greedy - just hand me over the eternity since, you poor thing, it won't go with anything you have

Oh my word, this band is so pretty I'm speechless!!! I was looking at something similar with emeralds somewhere but the quality of this looks better. Do they make more like this, or was this a piece they acquired and were re-selling?

Re: David Klass Montana Sapphire Five Stone & Spinel Three S

Hi Jereni!

thank you. I hadn't asked Grace about this band whether she made it or an estate piece. I have seen a few bands like this as well, but something with the proportion of the marquise sapphire bezel to Rb ratio is perfect and I didn't dare try to replicate it. Though I'm sure if I piped up to DK he would surely do something quite impressive not that I'm trying to enable you to do the same ...

Though I saved this picture and this etsy vendor (never used before... ) I'm seriously done and not in the market for anymore bling, but I would love to see someone with this and had to post this... The proportion is very lovely here too...

DandT: you have a huge collection with hidden gems: you still have the Lisa Elser ring, haven't you? I love your collection
I let my mood determine what kind of ring I wear. If I feel strong or in need of some strength, I choose a 'strong' ring etc.

Re: David Klass Montana Sapphire Five Stone & Spinel Three S

Asscherhalo- Thank you, my final future piece is adding an asscher diamond back in my collection again yours is to TDF!

Acinom..haha well that Lisa Elser Afghan Tourmaline is actually looking for a new home love everything about it... but well I don't reach for it as an E-ring as I should

Thank you again, everybody for your lovely comments and sharing in my process.

Noooooo Are you koddig me! You don't need it as an e-ring: why don't you wear it as a right hand ring?
Have you posted it on Preloved? I looooove that tourmaline, but it's probably a bit too dark in contrast with my dark skin

 

[D&T]

Re: David Klass Montana Sapphire Five Stone & Spinel Three S

Hi Acinom- I don't wear RHR unfortunately, I'm right handed and use my hands a lot and I fear I will knock it around and break the tourmaline sooner than later... The Yellow gold and diamond looks very rich with the color. The facet pattern is very entrancing to look at... its on LT. Thanks for asking though.

Thanks very much for the info! Maybe I'll have to inquire about getting a band like that from Grace. You're right, the proportions are just perfect on it?

You are selling that tourmaline? I would be seriously interested.

Re: David Klass Montana Sapphire Five Stone & Spinel Three S

Shout out to David! he's awesome to work with.... now onto the sparkly show....

1. Platinum half moon step cut diamonds .40ct F color SI1 with 1.53ct 8.1mmx6.6mm Richard Homer Concave cut Vietnamese spinel. Nice red fluoro and interesting that the dimmer and lower lighting makes the spinel appear redder.. really love that effect and have noticed this with a few other spinels.

2. Five stone with an 1.02 ct L color OEC with EGL USA Report. And the end diamonds are modern round brilliant .31ct E and F color GIA diamonds. Flanked by .97ctw montana sapphires from gemfix.

3. My 12 ct Unheated Montana Sapphire rough from Blaze Wharton cut by Jerry Newman and turned into 3.76ct. approx. 8mm Very Light silk set with 63cts of F color, VS2 trapezoid diamonds, and .25cts of F/G color VS2 tapered baguette diamonds

Gorgeous rings all of them!! Wear them in good health and happiness~~

My favorite is the 5-stone ring. It is so elegant and balanced: just perfect and in harmony.

The prongs on the spinel ring are also TDF!! And it's a Richard Homer. Lucky you!

Re: David Klass Montana Sapphire Five Stone & Spinel Three S

T! I love them all, but I have a serious weak spot for that asscher. It's just glorious! Congratulations and can I call dibs in the event that your daughters pass?

...you can't be done....

Um +1 for everything Freke said! I love!

I really enjoy seeing your pieces, love your style, we have similar taste though I haven't been able to indulge myself The asscher is amazing, such a gorgeous color and classic setting, just yummy! And I love the spinel ring, dying for a red spinel myself, it looks great with the halfmoons! Very beautiful rings.

Re: David Klass Montana Sapphire Five Stone & Spinel Three S

All really gorgeous! I'll scrap it out with Freke over that sapphire ring, should it ever be passed on.

In fact, it has inspired me to begin a conversation with David about a future project of my own, so thank you!

 

[D&T]

Re: David Klass Montana Sapphire Five Stone & Spinel Three S
