Show us your fancy colored diamonds

[athenaworth]

There was a previous topic on this three years ago. I’m sure we’ve gotten some new additions (and would love to revisit some “old” pieces). So go ahead - show us your fancy colored diamonds (lots of pix please)

I'll play




.21 Argyle pink pear in double halo 18k RG and platinum
.85 Fancy Yellow heart in all 18k YG
.49 Fancy Pink hoops in all 14k RG

Everything custom-made by DBL. The Argyle pink stone was purchased loose from Leibish.

I would love to own a chameleon someday

RubyShoes your heart is so scrumptious (your pink is no slouch either). I had the option to buy a heart for a steal of a deal and I didn't do it. Seeing yours makes me sad I didn't.

1.00 ct FIY, .14 FIG, and .11 FIB. I can't find any photos on my laptop of my FIP.

 

[stargurl78]

rubyshoes - I LOVE both of your gorgeous rings!!! Absolutely beautiful.

JustGinger- Any plans for setting your lovely stones? The green one is my favorite!!!

 

[Jereni]

Ruby shoes, your yellow heart ring is so adorable! I love it.

 

[JaneSmith]

Justginger, please take a real picture of your blue. I love blue!

 

[vickygigi]

Wow, justginger. Love that canary!!! And the green too.

 

[kroshka]

Here's one of mine. Adjustments to photo courtesy of Kenny from the original photo I took. Hopefully in the coming months I will have better photos of this stone and some of my other ones. Currently, I'm in FCD photography training under Sensei Kenny. Justginger, can your blue and green come out to play with mine?

[justginger]

stargurl: I'm a terrible setter. Settings are just so expensive these days, all I can think of is how I can buy another STONE for the price of a setting! I do intend to get the yellow set into a ring, but the other three I have no plans to set. I'd like to see them integrated into one piece, but have yet to think of what could accommodate such different colors and shapes.

JaneSmith: will snap a blue shot or two -- might have one on my PC already, but not on my laptop. It's a difficult stone to photograph though, as it is so small and I have zero macro skills.

vicky: thank you, I am rather fond of the yellow too. It is such a deliciously warm color.

kroshka: I think my FCDs would relish the chance to play with anyone! Poor things, always locked away in tiny boxes.

greg: I had an orange from Leibish, fancy intense orange, but returned it last year. For the pricing (as it was unmodified pure orange, it was rather expensive), I wasn't happy with the patchiness of coloration. I should have taken photos for posterity's sake. Or maybe I did, I'll have to look back to see.

Here are my little babies. The ring center stone is 1.21 ct. with a pink halo of around 10 pts. and .60 of white melee. The pendant and earrings are 1.34 tcw. I bought them for a song from Israel Rose on a trip to NY a couple years ago.

Sorry that looks a little blurry!

Athena, is there something, pray tell, that has you resurrecting this thread? Do you have colored tickle?

Minous, you should be part of CSI - colored stone investigator'! You'd solve every case on pure instinct

There *may* be something in the works if things work out the way I'm hoping.

P.S. didn't I say I was done? Silly Athena.

Hmm, a few things:

1. I knew it, I knew it, I knew it!!

2. I hope things work out just the way you're hoping!

3. Silly Athena, there is no cure! You know that! Once you're in "The Famiglia" you never leave...

 

[Rosebloom]

I have fancy diamond fever! I love them all!

 

[rubyshoes]

Will have to visit Leibish to quench my thirst!

Have to say, these are really gorgeous, I have wrote lot of articles about fancy colored diamond, but haven't have a chance to look at various styles of them, it might be a pity for me, but here, posts here are really nice, I have to say, that I am so lucky to have a chance to see these precocious stones you wear. Thanks!

 

[Kelly12]

Woweee!!! All your rings are just so so gorgeous.

 

[davi_el_mejor]

A little bit of man-bling









Same diamond just outside (fluor is amazing)

 

[athenaworth]

Mine for prosperity

 

[periwinklegirl]

In case any of you wanted to see this again...

This was my first blue. Sometime later this year it'll become a three-stone halo with blue pears. I have the pears, just still working on the design. So think of this as the "before" picture.

It's since been joined by fancy vivid blue studs, which are off getting jackets right now.

Oh, and I haven't set my red one yet. But, in case you like looking at red diamonds, here it is too!

 

[04diamond<3]

I want to play:

OOOO It's beautiful!!

 

[platinumrock]

Oh my goodness, I've died and gone to FCD heaven!! Gorgeous stones, everyone!!

Periwinklegirl, I'd love to see more pics of your red. It looks luscious!!

Kenny, TL, LD and Stepcutnut all need to chime in as well and show their beauties.

 

[kenny]

Mmmmm I'm loving all these colored diamonds.
I'll have to get off my tush and take some new pics.

FCDs are magical since they have the light performance that only diamonds can deliver plus the mystique of color.
