Demantoid ring

[Kismet]

So I purchased a demantoid ring from Fay Cullen and it arrived yesterday. I''ve been wearing it today and I''ve been quite pleased with it. It''s a nice medium green and very sparkly and it looks quite pretty under incandescent and fluorescent light, however it really, really shines in natural day light. I went out at lunch today it was overcast out but when I looked down at my hand it was if someone had flicked the on switch on the demantoid. It was just glowing bright, bright green. My first thought of course was "oh my god. I need a bigger one of these!"

Here''s one of Fay Cullen''s pics. I don''t have any of my own yet.

It''s really lovely - lucky you!

The dispersion looks like it''s good from the photo. Even FI leaned over to say how nice it was (doesn''t happen too often!)

Looks to be a well cut stone, and the colour is a bright pleasant green. Nice buy.

Very nice color. I can''t wait to see hand shots.

 

[Kismet]

I got a new camera and my picture taking skills are still lacking but I managed to get a couple of okay shots of the ring. This first one is a pretty good representation of the color of the stone.
