Twofer Tuesday-a Ruby/OEC Five Stone & Foliate Dinner Ring

[lulu_ma]

Last year surpassed all of my blingiest dreams.

This year was supposed to be more low key. But how's that saying go-'If you go looking for trouble, you will find it?' Well, I am ALWAYS looking. When this five stone ring and foliate ring popped up-two rings that were on my wish list-I couldn't pass them up.

First, the Ruby & OEC ring set in 18 kt gold. The OECs have a total estimated carat weight of .80 and H/I color. It's hard for me capture the true color of the rubies.



Next, up the foliate ring. I have vaguely wanted a large scale foliate ring for some time, but recently it's moved up wish list-probably because I keep seeing @oldcutclubmember 's gorgeous rings! I thought I would have a hard time finding the perfect foliate ring for my short fingers. But when I tried on this ring, I knew I had to have her. Willa (yes, I named her because I can't help myself) is thought to have been made in the 1940's with 1 carat weight in diamonds in 14 kt gold.



A glamour shot of the two of them:



Bonus-the Foliate ring fits both my middle and pointer fingers. So now I also have a power pointer ring!



Headed back to Ban Island soon. Meet me there for drink?

I can only afford Happy Hour prices at the moment, but yes, I’d love to see you at the Ban Island Bar.

Those rubies & OEC’s are completely captivating! Is it a new ring set with old stones, or an antique ring?

The foliate ring is perfect on you. I could never get away with one of these rings because I’m simply not very cool, but this was made for your lovely hand & you rock that style!

After I pick my jaw up from the ground, I will come back and write a response. Give me some time please. Just.. just no words right now!

 

[oldcutclubmember]

I love them both!! Now you have ME looking at ruby rings

Both of them are stunning! The rubies seriously have my heart!

 

[MissGotRocks]

Beautiful rings! Sometimes you have to strike when you can lest you live in regret for eternity! Great finds - congrats on both!

 

[Rfisher]

What a one two punch!
They are gorgeous and look great on you

Thanks @MamaBear !

Oh, yes, Happy Hour for me, too!

Thank you @Ally T !

The age of the five stone is a bit of a mystery to me. I think it's vintage at least-the OECs are well wore-there are some girdle flea bites etc. I don't think it is English-that much I can surmise from the hallmarks or lack thereof. The profile looks antique-y. That's all the info I have...

I'll smuggle in some hooch. Bring the rubies.

 

[Calla-lilies]

Wow! The ruby band is absolutely gorgeous! Both rings look beautiful on you!

 

[Neptune]

Willa is a mean beast and looks good on you.

 

[Catmom]

Oh my gosh, both pieces are stunning but that ruby and OEC ring is just to die for!

It’s so dreamy! It definitely looks antique to me.

 

[Mreader]

Stunning pieces! I can’t decide which is more scrumptious!

 

[oncrutchesrightnow]

You have such a wide selection of chonkiness and all of it is beautiful.

 

[Pomelo]

@lulu_ma the ruby ring is beautiful but wow, talk about a power pointer! It's well suited for cocktail hour on ban island

Awww-no words necessary @Star gazer ! Thanks!

@oldcutclubmember That only seems fair. Every time you get a new ring, my list gets longer

These are absolutely gorgeous!! Enjoy! Enjoy! Enjoy!!

Thanks so much @JV36912 !

 

[lulu_ma]

Both of them are stunning! The rubies seriously have my heart!

Thanks so much @ac117 ! You know, I didn't actively go looking for rubies, but when I saw this band, I was immediately wowed by the color of the rubies.

Beautiful rings! Sometimes you have to strike when you can lest you live in regret for eternity! Great finds - congrats on both!

@MissGotRocks Thank you! What you said is similar to what I told my DH .

What a one two punch!
They are gorgeous and look great on you

Thank you @Rfisher ! Yummy collections like yours make me what to expand into colored stones. I've officially dipped my toe in the water

Wow!!! I love your new rings and they looks stunning together. I have been going hard on ring purchases too, so I’ll be joining you in Ban Island shortly haha!

 

[kgizo]

Gorgeous rings! Love the gallery on hte ruby and diamond band.

You are in luck, I heard Ban Island built a wall and is refusing all new admissions

 

[Eli22]

Wow wow wow! Both gorgeous pieces, but I am in love with that power pointer!!!

 

[lulu_ma]

@ItsMainelyYou Meet at the cave entrance!

Wow! The ruby band is absolutely gorgeous! Both rings look beautiful on you!

Thanks so much @Calla-lilies !

Willa is a mean beast and looks good on you.

Thank you @Neptune ! Willa is a beastly 39 mm long!

 

[lulu_ma]

Oh my gosh, both pieces are stunning but that ruby and OEC ring is just to die for!

Thanks so much @Catmom . You know I have been looking at oec five stones and also ruby five stones. It's nice to cross two items on the wish list at once

Stunning pieces! I can’t decide which is more scrumptious!

@Mreader Thank you! I can't really decide either. The five stone is more versatile but Willa is so special...

You have such a wide selection of chonkiness and all of it is beautiful.

Thank you for your kind words @oncrutchesrightnow !

@lulu_ma the ruby ring is beautiful but wow, talk about a power pointer! It's well suited for cocktail hour on ban island

Thanks @Pomelo . Has Willa upped my cool quotient? In other news, I may need to buy a time share on Ban Island

Wow!!! I love your new rings and they looks stunning together. I have been going hard on ring purchases too, so I’ll be joining you in Ban Island shortly haha!

Thank you! Cmon over @springsparkle -the weather is fine and we just sit on the beach trying on each others jewels and sip Pina Coladas

Gorgeous rings! Love the gallery on hte ruby and diamond band.

@kgizo thanks-I love the gallery, too! And, unfortunately I have the Trusted Traveler pass

Wow wow wow! Both gorgeous pieces, but I am in love with that power pointer!!!

Thank you @Eli22 ! It's so funny that everyone has their favorite-I really love both of them!
