More of the Kyle Anne stackers...

Kyle's pictures capture the iridescent blue better, probably because my lighting is horrible.

The demantoid again...

Finally, Kyle''s and Sally''s pieces all together.

So now all the projects that were out are done, just waiting for CreativeGoldsmith (Erin) to tune up my tsav just a bit and send it back! I still have the Mali, tanzanite, and free pink tourmaline, with plans to set the tanzanite in a Patrick Irla hydrangea ring, but I''m not sure what to do with the others yet. Going to wait a bit for the bank account to recover before I send out this round of projects!

Hey Freke! All the FrekeGems look fab in their settings, but isn''t that zircon just jaw-dropping?

(...and there''s a part of me that wants to take that red zircon asscher off your hands, but I just can''t afford it!)

FrekeChild · Nov 23, 2009

Agreed and YES! The periwinkle looks soooo much bigger in the setting, it''s crazy!

You aren''t the first to tell me that! I swear it needs to go to a good home already, because I''m so terribly tempted to keep it, but I just can''t afford it either!

Holy moly that''s a lot of projects Jstar!! I love them!

Beautiful rings Jstar! I love your demantoid, and Sally''s pieces are gorgeous too. I remember something about Sally''s computer crashing, but is there any chance the pics of your rings were saved? Maybe we could post the glamour shots too!

But of course! This one was posted earlier in this thread:

And this one in the Show Us Your Lotus thread:

Here''s another...

I''m sure you said somewhere earlier and I probably just overlooked it, but, where did you get the spinel that is in the HOW elixir setting? It''s lovely

FrekeChild · Nov 24, 2009

She got it from me. I got it from Dan Stair.

No problem! Bought it from Freke, along with the red garnet and blue zircon. The spinel was cut by Dan Stair.

Very very lovely collection of rings. Do you have any hand shots of that Blue Marq? It looks very interesting. Anyway congrats on getting so many projects done so quickly!
