End of year CS sale

[mochiko42]

I'm saving up to set a few other stones and also for a few diamond pieces that I want, so I'm listing a few items that I rarely wear and/or I don't think I will get around to setting in the near future. I may list a few other pieces in the coming days (I'm debating whether to list my Afghan mint tourmaline ring, tanzanite ring, and Mozambique cuprian tourmaline/pink sapphire ring - but I'm really on the fence about whether to sell them or to save up money for a reset!)

All listings can be found at http://loupetroop.com/users/mochiko42

Beautiful gems.

Is it wrong of me to encourage you to list your cuprian for purely selfish reasons.

 

[mochiko42]

Thanks, Elle. I know.. I feel crazy for even considering giving up some of my rings like the cuprian tourmaline, but if I reset, it would be difficult to resell or reuse the current custom settings. Ah well, I will continue to think about it.


UPDATE: The spinel pair are on hold. The Oregon sunstone pendant is now sold. Other items still available.

haha Elle I was thinking the same thing!

Update: Spinel pair now SOLD. Other items still available.

I added two more items:

-- 1.52ct untreated tanzanite in custom hand-forged diamond halo ring (my gut feels a little sick listing this one because this tanzanite is one of my favorite stones so I won't be heartbroken if it doesn't sell.. I do want to fund my AVR upgrade next year, so someone please get this ring before I change my mind again. )

-- 1.7ct 7.5 mm green Congo tourmaline cut by Barry Bridgestock

I might list a few more items depending on what I can bear to part with.

I have to admit that I was so tempted by the spinel pair and I'm still tempted by the rose quartz pendant. I always admire your great taste!! I wish I had funds right now...sadly after Xmas for the kids, I really don't, lol. Good luck with your selling!! Beautiful pieces.

Beautiful stones! I wish I had some $$ to spend, that Barry tourmaline is gorgeous and a perfect size! I am shocked that it hasn't sold yet.

Hello from your instagram friend!

 

[mochiko42]

I reduced the prices slightly on a few of the listings.

Updated to add a beautiful tsavorite 5-stone ring from Yvonne Raley. I love the color combination but I realized that for greens I prefer the soft glow of emeralds. I sound silly for saying it, but these tsavs are too sparkly for my liking!

I think my seafoam Afghan tourmaline ring in handcarved rose gold may be listed next. A PSers already had first dibs on it from several months back, but if it becomes available I will list it on LT.

The tsav ring is the bottom one in this photo.

You have such great taste Mochiko!. Your rings are always so gorgeous.

Hi Mochiko, You're collection is wonderful. I just wondered, is your beautiful Tanzanite ring still available and if it is please could you clarify the currency for me. Although its listed in Hong Kong, is it still priced in US dollars? I do like it ...and I'm very surprised it doesn't appear to have sold already! Thank you.

Hi Hounddog, thanks for your interest. Yes, all prices are in US$, apologies if that was unclear (if you are a local/HK buyer I can quote a HK$ price). Please feel free to email me at the address listed on the LT listing if you'd like further details.

Separately: the Afghan tourmaline & champagne diamond ring that I mentioned previously has been sold, and is already on the way to a new home, so I won't be listing it on LT after all.

Oh I'm so sorry, I totally forgot to answer your question before! Yes, the tanzanite ring is still available.

Thanks! I already have two PSers in line for this one if/when I decide to rehome it.

 

[mochiko42]

Mali garnet has been sold. The other items are still available.

I really love your chrysoprase! Gorgeous. Thinking...

 

[Hounddog]

Thanks Mochiko, it's very tempting, I'll have to give it some serious thought! Hope you have a great festive season.
