Thank you! I freaking love the color, especially when the light catches it an you get those bright flashes of fuchsia. It’s a lucky score for me.This is a great find!! The color of this sapphire…..A M A Z I N G! Beautiful ring!
Thank you so much (on both counts)!THUD!! Absolutely breathtaking!! Beautiful hands and nails too!
Thank you! I’m super excited about it because I’ve wanted a bright purple ring for ages…and it’s a Leon Mege ring to boot. Now that’s a Christmas miracle.I hardly ever think to check this thread...but WOW!!!! How magnificent is that?!!!
How wonderful! I totally understand about the length issue! I am looking at WF since I do live in the US, and I really think yours is the perfect size for me! It certainly looks like wonderful quality, too!
Thank you! This was originally about 8 ctw (at 7” length) and I got it shortened to 6.1”, hence it’s around 20 points each 35 diamonds approx 7 ctw. Hope you get your ideal tennis bracelet soon!
I need this kind of Christmas!!!
Three more pieces to go after these earrings and my collection is finished.
Famous last words....again!
Out with the old, in with the new.
Um, I ended up buying that french cut eternity band from @Diamondgirl1702. I just had to have it. I mean, it's even in my exact size, so it's meant to be, right?
I got the package right before leaving for lunch. So here's a handshot I quickly took in the car in the parking lot.
And here's a handshot inside the restaurant (a burger place, nothing fancy) while we waited to order our food.
I. LOVE. IT. The fire is just unreal. And it's such a better fit with my lifestyle.
But yeah, I think I need an intervention. I gotta stop buying pretty things and focus on getting my emmy set!

That’s what I was thinking but didn’t say it!!! Hahaha

Yes, but I am socially inept, and that explains why I actually said it. My DW is well aware of this failing and reminds me of it constantly. It's my enormous, good fortune that she somehow sees other qualities in me that make up for it.
I hope @mrs-b isn't too mad at me. We all know she has too many great ideas of the fabulous jewelry she could create to ever call it quits!
@MamaBee, @prs and @diamondyes -
You probably haven't noticed, but I'm not often on PS anymore. And while your skepticism may be well placed with some people, I've been scaling down my collection for a couple of years now. I still enjoy my collection, and do enjoy design, but I haven't bought anything new for a while now and don't intend to.
I always had a set collection I wanted, and I have it now. Three more projects, for which I already have the diamonds, and then I'm done, believe it. Well - believe it or not, as you wish - but I know me better than anyone else, and I know I'm approaching the end of it. Without strictly saying "I've lost interest" - I've basically lost interest. It's not a bad thing - I just have enough.
Hi mrs-b - did you know what you wanted and now you're almost there. Or was it more you refined your taste and pieces along the way and now you're almost there? I think your diamond solitaire is a beautiful piece. I also love your three stone and discovered that three stones are what is the most aesthetically pleasing for me. I have a diamond three stone and have a lovely oval sapphire that I might add pear diamond sides and then I'm done. Perhaps in our 60's the urge to keep accumulating does subside.
