Interesting color combo?

[kt]

I have NO MONEY at the moment to actually get this ring set, probably won't happen until next year, but I have the components of what I think/hope will be a cool piece!

Center stone: Dana/Master Cut Gems lavender/silver/grey modified asscher spinel, 7.2-ish mm (I'd have to find the gem paper to get the exact but I think it's around that).

Side stones: 5mm color change garnets that move between purple, and teal/green. I LOVE them - they are so very cool! I tried to capture some pics.

I've always wanted a 3 stone square/trillion combo!

Love the colour combo in your 2nd picture.

Super cool color combo

Thats great that you were able to find two matching color change garnets. I love the concept of your ring, and think those two colors, teal/blue and crimson/burgundy, would go very well with the platinum silver color of the spinel. I love how the garnets seem to change color to the same degree and continue to match.

This will be a very pretty ring!

Funky! I think it's awesome to have cc side stones, only that finding such a pair is incredibly difficult.

WOW - thats lovely - in both colourways,and so totally something I would wear. Very jealous and cant wait to see the finally finished ring.

Can I ask - where did you get the matched pair of CC garnets?

Thanks everyone! I got them from someone on the Bistro (can't remember which vendor she said she got them from) and I was nervous that the colors wouldn't work with my spinel, but I think even with the change they do go with the lavender gray. The camera makes the change more distinct, I think IRL the change is not quite as dramatic...It also seems to do the same thing with my color change sapphire. I'm actually really loving the combo of shapes, I have always wanted a 3-stone ring with a square flanked by trillions.

KT, I love your color combo and your idea for a ring! I saw those trillions on the Bistro and thought they were so awesome. They go perfectly with your asscher, great job

Hard to say.

The white balance is so far apart in those two pics I have no clue what the stones' color might be.
There is no way your skin (or the gems) can be both colors.

I think the problem is on the original image on my iphone, the color "mutation" is not as drastic as when the image gets posted on PS - I just looked at my original photo on my iphone in the light i have in my office at the moment (which woudl be the left image) and my hand is not that weird reddish color! but the color difference is definitely teal blue/green changing over to a purply shade. If I have time I'll see if I can get something more accurate...but I can't adjust the white balance either on my computer or my phone.

let's try this one, another of it looking very tealy-blue-green on my camera but apparently not working well for posting....

i think the three go together very well and you will have a very lovely ring!
