the yellow asscher and orange radiant are for me! my rings / bands... :)

the brown RB and pink cushion are for the wifey, most likely going into rings!

did i miss a spec on any stone?
 
beautiful! thanks for sharing! what an incredible colored diamond collection!!!
 
Yay Ace thanks for putting them all in one place! What about your wedding band? I thought you had a pink in there?
 
I love your collection! I don't have any fancy diamonds yet but I do have a natural light yellow (Y-Z) diamond that I love. I'll post pics if you think that's good enough!
 
You have quite a colletion! What are your plans for the big brown one? (or any of them if you have plans)

I'm pretty sure Ace isn't excluding the non "fancy" colors, I think he just means colored diamonds in general...with that said, I'll be posting mine in a few minutes!
 
Ok so None of what I have is certified but I bought them all from trusted vendors and I trust their color grading skills, all of the stones were purchased loose and I designed the pieces...

The ring was my first colored stone design, They were sold as a set, the center stone Greenish Grayish Yellow (something like that) and they two sides Pinkish Brown (something like that). I really wanted to maximize the coverage and make an East West band with them so I sent Whiteflash my drawing and they brought it to life! I had them add two white asschers at the ends to make it a five stone look. I love the ring but I don't love the center stone in this setting, I think I'm going to have it replaced with a white emerald cut so I'll have a white pink white pink white going on and then use the colored center in something more flattering for the color, I have yet to figure that out!

Next is a piece that I feel I got completely right! In purchased all of the components on eBay, the South Sea pearl, the white pear diamonds, and the light brown round diamonds. This is a favorite of mine! The setting was done by Sally of Hearts of Water Jewels.

Oh wow, that ring is so unique and very pretty! I like the grayish greenish yellow stone a lot. I have a thing for gray(is) diamonds in particular. Though I understand why you might want to reset in something that will make it shine.

I'll post mine in a minute.
 
love your ring and pendant asscherhalo... i gotta find the picture of my band... yeah it contains a light pink stone...
 
Here's my lovely Y-Z radiant I got from DBL. It's 93 points and SI1 in clarity. Set 14K white and yellow gold.

Oh Asscherlover your pendant is so beautiful too! I love the use of the browns in that one!
 
light browns can do wonders! they shine pink if set right...

Yay for showing you ring clgwli! It's gorgeous! Ace that's Ashley Judd's rings isn't it? I think your brown would be exquisite in it!

Asscher halo lover, that yellow/pink ring is really special.
The colors look good together; and those pearl earrings are cool too.

cigwli, I also love your yellow radiant.
It's a very vibrant stone; I'll bet you love wearing it at places with good spotlighting.
