That's very nice. Not sure what you meant with the vendor part, is this bought second hand or is that a store? If not bought second hand, could you please tell me where you bought this (link would be great as I'm not located in the US and may not be familiar with local vendors) and whether it was custom made or not :) Looking for a similar style.
 
Thanks! It's nice to meet another non US PSer too. I'm in Hong Kong :)

The ring is from Julia B Jewelry on Etsy, if you go to Etsy.com and search, or if you go to the Colored stones forum you can find the direct link to her store in the Recommended Vendors sticky thread at the top.
 
What a fabulous ring!

Mochiko, this is such a beautiful ring! I keep perusing Julia's site, she has such lovely pieces and I have a hankering for a CS ring!

Really nice and beautiful too!
 
Thank you!! I :love: this ring so much!!
 
Your ring is absolutely gorgeous. Enjoy it for many years!!!
 
Thank you ldl259! :)

OECrystal: A local place in the bay area called Geoffrey's! I designed it myself after looking at some J.E. Caldwell rings. How funny that yours looks the same!!
 
I think my diamond may have a bit of obstruction or something, because I do find it very difficult to get a shot without the center reflecting the black of my phone!

But here's one... On a recent vacay. Poolside pastels! :love:

That's quite nice! Is that one of those Phoebe rings? If so I really like them, but I'm not sure why! :wavey:

I missed your ring the first time around. https://www.pricescope.com/communit...-oec-in-an-18k-rose-gold-bezel-by-erd.194098/ It's beautiful! So glad you posted it again, and that it was highlighted as "jewel of the week" so I had a chance to see it!

Were you asking if this ring was a Phoebe ring? I don't know what a Phoebe ring is, so I don't know to what ring in the thread you were referring. When I saw this one as the Jewel of the Week for one second it looked like my ring. Pictures of lin_ny's ring and mine both attached!

Sure was! I first saw a ring kind of like that by Grace Lavarro (http://www.jewelsbygrace.com), specifically here: http://www.jewelsbygrace.com/rings/vintage-inspired/45ct-rose-cut-diamond-phoebe-ring.html#.U7yy6GK9KSM

Caught my attention. Hers has a rose cut stone that has a cool, vaguely antique feel. The rose cut has a nice watery look to it.

I don't know if the "Phoebe" thing is an accepted name for a style or just hers. But it was similar enough that I was curious! I like both of yours, and find them delightfully vintage. And by vintage I mean like 17th century vintage. I quite like them! :wavey:
 
AGBF, I love your ring!!! So cool!

Once upon a time JBEG offered a line of rings similar to lin_ny's that they called the "Phoebe" ring. Like the one in Sir Guy's post, JBEG used a simple bezel-and-frame setting to showcase rose cut diamonds, with a plain bezel rather than the milgrained bezel used in lin_ny's lovely ring. They offered them in the various shades of gold, and you could specify a high polish or matte finish. I probably don't even need to mention that I spent a bit of time drooling over them! :lol:
 
Thank you all so much :))

It's been 9 mos and although it could REALLY use a deep clean (cons of the setting), I still love it. It's "showy" in it's own modest kinda way. Hard to measure up to all these huge rocks on PS!!! I'm still dreaming of a 1.75ish higher colored OEC... But we all dream, don't we!
 
Your ring is so beautiful!!!
 
Here is my AVR 0.7 ct G SI2. It faces up very white & sparkly & eye-clean. I had the setting made at a local jeweler's - while I'm happy with the head and split prongs, they made the shank/band too thick (2mm) for my liking. I'm going to redo it in a totally different setting in rose gold, but wanted to post a couple of pics here on PS for posterity. :tongue: :tongue: ** excuse my finger muffin-top ** :shifty: :shifty:
