The "it's so ME" antique dream piece thread

[CSpan]

This Tiffany & Co that was on eBay for a long time. One day, I want to recreate this one with a smaller diamond:

That is gorgeous and I love the outline. I love "contained" rings where everything is streamlined and no prongs.

This 1920s Art Deco ring is so very me.

I mean this is basically big blue just a few dollars more.

I love that setting! Did you find an oec?!?

I did. It’s local so I visited it. I’ve never visited a diamond before as I had been buying online. The experience is so unreal.

These. 3 old mine cuts. They are outstanding but yet somehow seem totally wearable everyday. I saw them in person last summer and think about them often

@CSpan oh, YAASSSSS......!

Ooh! Are you buying this one??

Yes. I love how it looks. The facets turn on and off. Sadly I can’t seem to take a nice picture of it though.

One thing for sure, I hate wearing mask.

That was the first time we’ve ventured out since 3/16/2020.

Oh that's so exciting! take video so we can ooh and ahh with you. That would be a very strange experience - going out for the first time in 2 months!

Thought you never ask

It looks so much better in person though. These videos are from the vendor.

Which ring? I want to oogle it too.

Which ring? I want to oogle it too.

The first ring in this post - the lovely emerald, onyx art deco ring. I was so heartbroken that I had to go non-buyers remorse shopping. I was pushed over the edge by Neils' new gorgeous find so I blame her as well. I'll have new treasures to share with you all soon.

Beautiful! I would totally wear these a lot - I've got costume that are very similar and after my studs they are the second most worn.

Somebody needs to buy this - its lovely. I've got too many ruby rings already but I love the domed shape of this.

I love love love this ring. I was saving up to buy it but it sold before I had enough. I keep saying that when I have the money, I'll have it replicated.

Ladies - this tiara came up and sold today on Ruby Lane and I'm so glad because let me tell you - I would have gotten this beautiful thing and worn it in my backyard garden. Because I am silly and it is a beautiful piece of art I would have liked to see my daughter wear when she gets married in a zillion years from now. And then it could have been passed down thru the generations.....what a lovely thing.

Nts.: The oval brilliant set in a casette (in lapis) is meant to reflect its metal backing & I need to know how!

[CHRISTY-DANIELLE]

I have a thing for lapis, it's on my "hunt" list. I found a perfect one, vivid blue with great gold flakes , bezel set in yellow gold at an antique jewelry show a few months ago. I keep kicking myself for not buying it!
