Very pretty 0.25ct diamond in a unique setting. I can't tell if its original or someone added the buttercup head. 22k gold and engraved with initials. Size 5.5.

So just an example of how bad the RR photos are, I expected this ring to be dull and dirty, but it really isn't. A bit banged up, but that's fine. I had thought I'd have DK add engraving as @Mreader mentioned, but now I'm not sure I will. I kind of like using it the way it is as a stacker.
Love that you shared pictures!! Like I said I have the two toned one and one thing I love about it besides the shape is the heft. And yes it looks much shinier than in the photos!

@Lookinagain BEAUTIFUL!! You'd never know how gorgeous it would turn out from the original photos!
@lovedogs - I've been watching #4 and it has been bought and returned before---that doesn't necessarily mean there's anything wrong with it, just wanted to note for anyone on the fence.

I'm trying to understand the hallmarks on this and am failing. I would have thought the year should be after the assay office and I can't seem to find what the shield means. This is my first time looking at hallmarks, though, so I'm really going in blind. Is anyone who knows anything willing to help?
Edit: wait, is the shield-ish thing actually the lion for the London office?
Edit again: if so, does that T seem to be the 1954 T?
Last edit, haha! This Etsy shop sold a 22k ring from 1954 with what appear to be the same hallmarks so I think I've done it!

I would not have guessed 1954 but that’s still 70 years ago!

Looks to me to be the same as the flexible Marchesa band in #3 but in rose gold and size 7 for $1705: https://www.therealreal.com/products/jewelry/rings/band/marchesa-18k-2-45ctw-diamond-band-kxgai

Me neither! It's lovely regardless and was a fun adventure into hallmarking -- and I'm still thinking about it.....

Is Marchesa TRR’s house brand or are pieces sold elsewhere?

@jgny I think it is a liquidation client. The Devon tiktok channel follows TRR's quarterly reports and they do offer that for some brands, but they're moving out of it because it's less profitable. I've noticed they carry a lot of Badgley Mischka lab grown jewelry as well. Multiples of the same item, same pricing, etc. and Daniela Designs. Too many for a regular person to be consigning them. They also don't go on markdown as much as consigned items, I've found.
Are those flexible style rings more comfortable? I've never tried one of them on.

This is exactly my thought. Seems like there are A LOT of Marchesa pieces on TRR. I’m aware that it’s a fashion house. I just wonder if someone licensed the name to market jewelry (a la Vera Wang).

I finally had my first time of seeing an Instagram seller reselling something from TRR that I had been watching. It was $584.50 on TRR and is listed for $1295 on Instagram. I was curious what the markup was and now I have some clue. I thought others here might be interested as well.

Thanks for sharing. I've been quietly wondering the same!

Have you seen others like this? Is that markup typical?

I’ve seen a few and it really depends on the seller and the item. I’ve seen some sellers mark up just a couple hundred dollars and others mark up triple.

This is so interesting! I follow that seller and I do like some of the pieces she posts (usually the big honking rocks I can’t afford). I did wonder how she sourced some of her smaller pieces though.
