Athena:

Will you come back after you've had it examined and tell us about it? I just looked at it again and the detailing is just so pretty and well done. If it did originally have all diamonds and some were replaced with emeralds, it would be interesting to know if they were real or synthetic. Honestly, I can't imagine going to the trouble of changing out stones unless I was going to use the real deal, and the color of those emeralds is just so pretty.

Wow, what a great find! The stones are beautiful and I love the scroll work

 

[athenaworth]

I was inspired today and took a few new shots. I love it when they turn out like this.

 

[ForteKitty]

This ring is so much more beautiful in person, I wanted to steal it!!

 

[alice87]

Beautiful ring, I love the color combination, of all three, including the look of the gold. It just gives this antique feel...

I love that I love that I love that, Athena! Oh, it's heaven. Nice emerald color, the yg with it is terrific, and the gallery is TDF! I might do the D part just looking at it. Super super find!

I love this too and am back wondering if you decided against getting the emeralds checked, or whether maybe you've already done it?

I did get them checked, but only superficially. They are real emeralds but I don't know their treatments. For their color there has to be some sort of treatment I imagine, but damn they're pretty.

Yes,they're pretty - actually, they're more than pretty, they're fabulous! Let's just say they're lightly oiled and leave it at that!

That's exactly what I keep telling myself. I swear, it's like we share a brain!

I love that YG is coming back. I have always liked it, and everything (almost) that I have is YG, but for a while I always felt like no one wore it except me. Excited it seems to be coming back in style.

Heh, not sure it's coming back just yet, but let's you and I pioneer its comeback!

athenaworth-

I went back and checked whether you had contributed to the latest thread on whether yellow gold was coming back into vogue (this one was in Jewelry Pieces). I saw that you had not. (Link to that thread is below.)

Most recent thread on yellow gold coming back...[URL='https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/will-yellow-gold-come-back-into-style.188030/']https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/will-yellow-gold-come-back-into-style.188030/[/URL]

I have been trying to keep track of as many threads as I can on whether gold is coming back. At the end of the thread to which I posted the link I list many Pricescope threads on the topic. I am a gold aficionado and started what is commonly known as, The Gold Thread, where gold lovers are invited to share their enthusiasm for yellow gold jewelry and high karat yellow gold jewelry, including ethnic jewelry (link below).

Do You Have a Favorite Gold Designer?...[URL='https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/will-yellow-gold-come-back-into-style.188030/']https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/will-yellow-gold-come-back-into-style.188030/[/URL]

Anyone who loves gold should really join us there and post pictures of any gold jewelry you own or covet or have admired over the years. We will drool over it with you, I promise. Your ring is lovely, athenaworth!

I made a copy of that list so that anyone reading this thread could see it, too. I have found it interesting to watch the topic come up some often over the years on Pricescope!

This makes me so happy! When I'm on a real computer tomorrow I will join the threads. I tell ya if I ever reset my ering it'll be in yellow gold. I just love it and honestly I think it's better on my skin than white metals.

 

[chrono]

Knowing that the emeralds are real is already a huge relief in the mind clean department. The colour is great and the setting fantastic. I enjoy seeing your pictures and am glad the thread is bumped up again.

 

[minousbijoux]

You are one of the few I worship for your ability to find beautiful, vintage/antique pieces at relative bargain prices. This is one such piece. Some day, I think you, Fortekitty, and a few others should teach a course for those of us who: 1) have no patience; 2) don't know a good thing when its staring at them; 3) need hand holding!

+1 to Minou's post. I don't even know where to start or where to look. eBay is such a huge place.

You guys are too cute. Pretty much all I know I learned from FK. She has a PhD in eBaying.
