It's a size 7 and it's as pretty as it looks in the photos. The spinel is IF clarity, it's purple - tho moody - and beautifully cut by Gary at Finewater Gems. The diamonds are white, clean and well cut, and roughly .5ctw. The band is a softened tri-wire - I asked DKJ to flatten the three wires ever so slightly, so it's just a little more subtle.

The spinel is 3.84ct IF, 9.2 x 7.8mm, and it's from Burma.

It's a size 7.

$2350. Selling to PSers only. This ring has real character and heart.

My contact details are on LT. All the regular provisos apply.

So beautiful!
 
So beautiful!

Thanks, @prinsad. Yes, she's one very pretty girl. My pieces by DKJ are always set by their uber bench - for which I pay a considerable mark-up. But it shows. Look at the close up of that halo - super-even with every diamond. Worth every penny.
 
For anyone interested, this ring cost me a smidge over $3500.
 
Oh my! I want this one, too! :kiss2: :P2 Too bad all my money is going to kitchen renovations, ha. Dust for quick sale, which I'm sure you will not need.

I'd love to see photos of your kitchen renos, tho! Feel free to post, @DorotheaBrooke!
 
Well, I'm kind of shocked this hasn't flown out the door! The stone is beautiful and the workmanship is awesome. I'm going to do ONE price reduction on this of 10%.

Price is now $2250, down from the $3500 I paid for it.

If you want it, come get it!

That's a beautiful ring. I'm very drawn to the color palette you've put together.

Ugh, wish all my bling money wasn't tied up at the moment, or I'd be on this in a heartbeat.
 
Boadicea has also been REDUCED to $18,500.
 
Ugh I love this ring, but I'm in the middle of scheduling the closing date on a house... and then have to gut that house :( I'm so on the fence about this!

I don't think I can help you on this! But speaking as someone who has gutted more than one house (about 5, in fact!) - there's no end to it. Whether that reality makes you more or less likely to buy a ring is a personal preference, I think, because you can argue it both ways.

What I *can* tell you, tho, is that this stone has a lovely puffy top and a truly beautiful cut. The workmanship is overall outstanding.

On the other hand - feel free to post photos of your new house! :))
 
@mrs-b Do you have hand-shot? Or link to the Pricescope tread if ever have one of this ring?

hi @CoolKat -

I don't! Would it be helpful if I snapped a few tomorrow? Happy to do it. I'll see what I can do.

ETA It occurs to me now that I should have done this before, I'm sorry!
 
Oh yes, that would be lovely & might spark more interest from others as well, mrs-b! :dance:
 
Hi @mrs-b! This is a gorgeous setting from DK! Also equally the spinel! Don’t mean to side track, but right now my daughter and her BF are talking to DK about a halo platinum setting for her future engagement ring and I wanted to ask you if they should specifically ask about using DK’s Uber bench to make this halo? This is DK actual picture of a halo my DD wants for her ER.

I would, if it were me. I have to say, tho, DKJ's pave halos are like a specialty, so I don't think there would be any problems, regardless of which bench they used.

But even so - as I said - I would, if it were me.

I love a good halo! Lovely ring they're considering - congratulations to them both!

You mentioned paying extra for the A team bench there. How do you do that?

The vortex is looking very bullish for next week. I'm hoping.

Oh, I see someone else asked that

Oh, I like that other ring in the picture?

Hi @tradergirl -

The ring with the rubellite center is my Christmas ring and, again, part of a set. (You keep liking my sets of things!)

As for the 'best bench' - there are a number of very good benches who work for DKJ - really top class benches. But I have one bench in particular that I like. he's very good, but very - and I mean VERY - slow. It costs a little more to use him because of the timing factor. Since I started working with him, tho, DKJ have put on a couple more benches who are probably as good as him, so the situation may have changed. I would call and ask, if that's the sort of thing you're looking for. it is, for me, but not everybody cares one way or the other - especially if it's, say, a very basic design.

Do you wear it with the holly ring?
 
In an effort to move this, I'm dropping the price to $2000 flat.
 
Good morning - I would love to purchase this if still available and just sent you an email.

Hi Snowballs mom - yes it is and I'll respond asap.
 
As the lucky purchaser of this beautiful ring I can say that it is more glorious in real life than in the photos! The cut is amazing - the stone really sparkles! I am a PayPal novice, and @mrs-b kindly provided detailed instructions that walked me through the payment steps. Even with a holiday delay, I received it really quickly. Many thanks, @mrs-b!
