Somebody's Gotta Buy This Piece!

Do you think you’ll set it into something different or keep the same setting? This is one of those awesome stories that deserves its own thread I think!

I don’t know yet. My local jeweler thinks I should reset it because the color is not displayed well. I tend to love original settings…and her suggestion was rose gold, which doesn’t look great with my skin. It’s not back yet from GIA, so I will thunk on it once I can play with the unmounted stone on my hand.
 
Wow @Mrsz1ppy what a score and it’s just so funny that it was listed at a much lower price on EBay than Etsy!

I hope we will see many more pictures when it comes back :)

Yes I was thinking as well to reset just bc of the color alone. I do love the current setting though. It will be fun to think of the options!
 
I know! I was over the moon!

Wow! What an amazing deal you got. I love the setting and I personally would keep it in there at least for a while until you tire of it. And it fits you!!

Absolutely! Here are a few to tide you over. On my daughter’s hand. I will have to resize it.

I love the design of the setting, the swirls on the side..so pretty!

Kwiat for a tiny fraction of retail. If I thought I would ever wear them, I'd snatch these ear climbers up in a second, but I will not, so releasing them out into the universe for someone else to enjoy.

The seller takes returns if you don't like them. But I will say, I was at a party last night and a guest was wearing climbers like these, and totally had me rethinking my decision to pass. So I'm really glad you bought them before I could. :lol: And I can't wait to see ear shots!!

This vendor doesn’t have much information in their listings - so a lot is assumed

They also have a pair of turquoise/old cut earrings and a sapphire navette ring that give me the feels.

If hoarding truly kept me happy - I’d be asking them about a package deal :lol:
After much more info tho!!!!

If I wasn't doing the kitchen I would buy this in a heartbeat. :love: Exactly what I'd be looking for.

Seriously, this vendor has a lot of beautiful stuff.
 
Here are a couple of affordable options.


 
It’s very cute! I’m banning myself but that would make a great stacking ring! I love it!

Right? It’s interesting with the baguettes and marquise stones on the band. Haven’t seen that style before.

I would be very tempted..but I really have too many bands now that I don’t know what to do with..I would want to know I could sell some I don’t wear. Now that PayPal reduced the amount you can sell to $600..I don’t know how to sell the ones I don’t reach for since my husband told me not to do it through Paypal..or credit card. I waited too long..I don’t have receipts for a lot of them. How do you prove you’re selling at a loss? I guess the ones you bought using PayPal in the last two years would count as a receipt..They don’t let you go back before 2021 though..
 
@MamaBee, yes this whole $600 threshold is ridiculous. So if you can’t prove what you originally purchased for then you have to pay tax on the whole amount? Doesn’t seem very well thought out.

I've admired that one for a while, too. I follow an Instagram account (ohmybrooch) that is affiliated with them. Sadly, I don't think I'd get enough wear out of it to make the plunge. I am trying out a smaller pin that has the same kind of geometry, and what I assume to be a synthetic french cut sapphire, though.

Would someone please buy this weird/beautiful pendant? I think it's too fancy for me, but I find it utterly charming!

I agree. That is exotically pretty! I think one of my aunts, who has a sort of rock and roll style, could wear it well.

I think friends and family would bypass this right?

I can’t use F&F because my husband is adamant I don’t attach our debit card. My credit card is attached to PayPal.
 
If you pay F&F, the buyer pays a fee, I know this because I had to pay it when I bought my emerald cut. I was really shocked to be honest.
