I opened your pic and was jumping up and down…I know that blue tourmaline/spinel ring because I wanted to buy it!!!!
Yea
I want it to stay in PS family because it is too cute. Kudos to @nutellakitty has some really elegant design. I’m trying hard to be good, but it’s hard when one keep hanging out here. Lol
I got to share my candies here.
Sapphires, spinels, rubies and garnets.
Took a few updated family shots. Everything is kind of jammed on, but you get the general idea.
One really interesting thing is the grey spinel - bottom left. Look at the difference in color in that stone, depending on the light - lavender to black to blue/grey. Gorgeous gem.
It’s not as intense as your avatar!
Not my entire ring family, but just from the last 5 months (eek....!). My wallet can't take it anymore...But boy am I pleased. Diamonds are upgrades, but the sapphires are recent obsessions. Just missing a forest green precision cut Montana sapphire!
). The answer - heck YES. That stone really does not go dark except in the absence of light. Bryan's cutting really is second to none. One of my dreams is to have a big-ol Montana sapphire cut by Bryan but he hasn't been cutting them anymore recently. He does have plenty of other natural stones for sale that he precision cut in different designs depending on shape. Finally, setting is a slightly modified from one of their own settings (Carina). Hope that helps. Highly recommend Stag & Finch. I'm sure @MamaBear agrees.
@mrs-b Thank you - but you've actually singled out the one ring out of my collection that is an "unmentionable" haha. This sapphire was precision cut by Bryan of Stag & Finch and was an experiment of sorts to see whether the cutting was as gorgeous as the website pictures presented them (for future purchases
I'm sorry, @Inbloom - I should have been more specific. Could you tell me its dimensions, and your finger size? Could you also tell me the size of the diamond sides?
As for its 'unmentionableness' - it's a gorgeous color, and that's what it's all about, when all is said and done. Beautiful ring.
Part of my small family.

Here’s my ring family!!! I am currently having the Toi et Moi made into a pendant. I also had Betty (my O-P transitional ring) made to wear on my right hand. Not sure that I love the look, but I’ve been wearing my modern wedding set and want Betty to get out! I don’t love the oval sapphire ( it’s heated from James Allen). When I bought it, I thought I could potentially upgrade but guess that only applies to diamonds! I might make it a pendant someday and would love to get an unheated one.

Resurrecting this fun thread.
Latest acquisition is the blue tourmaline with pink spinel from a lovely PSer.

My collection is modest now-a-days but she’s very colorful
Just realized I have hoarded too many. But I love seeing the rainbow.
