Ooh, what about kite-set on a bracelet? That could be lovely!
lala646, I couldn't agree more. If I had my other projects done and paid . . . dang.

@YadaYadaYada @Tinytreasurers Well, I reached out to Retro Gem on Monday, and didn't hear back until Tuesday, by which time the OMC had sold. No big surprise at that price. She offered to send me info on other stones she had, but they were all considerably more $$, so I thanked her but said I would have to pass.
And then, as luck would have it, I got a message from her about an hour ago. The buyer decided they wanted a larger stone, so the OMC was available again, and did I want it? So it's heading my way and should arrive this weekend. Hopefully it's as pleasant IRL as the images she shared.
I am looking for both! Sorry for being unclear!!
I am looking for an engraved band yellow gold anywhere from 2mm to 3mm, size 10.5 to 11, for stacking. 18k though I would consider 14k as these are so rare.
I am also looking for antique gold band, plain no engraving, in 18k about 1.7 to 2mm thick and 3-4mm wide in size 10.5 to 11(give or take). I want to pair this with my five stone in the works.
Well, trying not to freak out, but Retrogems seems to be ghosting me. Said she would ship the stone 2-day, but never sent shipping details. Weekend came and went, no package. She hasn't viewed any of my messages since last Wednesday, even though she's still posting on her IG account. Still hoping for the best, but....

They're so fun. Sometimes if it sits around for months or it's an odd size they'll discount.
That's weird! I saw someone else (maybe gildedlane) talking about IG messages being weird. Maybe stories or email?
@lala646 I've noticed that last week, the prices are crazy high. That Burma ring looks a lot like the ring that a PSer bought from estatejewelrymama and then Fedex lost it on the way to GIA in NYC. Does anyone remember that story?
That’s what I thought as well, it looks very similar.
Is Eye Candy Thursday a thing? Well, it should be. This definitely falls under the heading of "If I won the lottery", but did you guys know Neiman Marcus has an Estate Jewelry collection? Prices are eye watering, as to be expected. Here are a few of my faves.
