Your Latest Jewelry Purchases/Things You're Considering....

Sooooo..... We are back from our vacation and i decided that i will be having my emerald stone reset! The setting in which she was when DH bought her was not up to my standards and the side stones were of very low clarity and color.
I have sourced (through my jeweler, who will custom make the new setting) two pear cut diamonds, which are .80 tcw, VS1 clarity and E color (couldn't risk seeing a yellow tint with those pear cuts). I have sent him inspiration photos and he will start working on my ring on Friday! Yay, i can't wait for it to be on my finger! I will keep you guys posted!

Oooh this is very exciting @Natylad! I LOVE pears as sidestones and I can't wait to see the finished ring!

I love pear side stones so much myself my dear @junebug17 ! And I have regretted not having used pears for my three-stone engagement ring as well! I guess, maybe one day I will reset the ER too!!!
 
I've been away for a while. It's so nice to catch up on everyone's beautiful pieces.

And I want to share my latest purchase (after a long break from jewelry).

Vintage Tiffany's band. I have no idea what decade this design was made, but I feel very drawn to the mixed shapes / cuts and the wider band style. Can't wait until it gets here.

My latest commission is finally done.

It's a 1.18 carat radiant cut natural mined champagne diamond (Fancy Orangish Brown), SI1, with two 0.15 carat trilliant side lab-grown diamonds, VS1, set in platinum.

I bargained really aggressively with my jeweller for this stone, and I'm really happy with how the ring turned out.

Love the new addition and your whole collection!
 
Love it!!
Thank you @lulu_ma - I'm having a love affair with old rings at the moment!

I love that last pic! You 'family' is growing. How big is the next one going to be? :)
Thank you @Starstruck8 ! I think this might be it for now...this one has pretty decent finger coverage (unless I manage to find a Deco "whole finger" ring :lol:)

Love the new addition and your whole collection!
Thank you @oldcutclubmember !! I am incredibly drawn to old cuts right now...I'm sure you know the feeling ;))
 
Two rings in the making: a round pink Sapphire and a blue Asscher cut Zircon, both from Jeff W. I have decided to use LGD instead of mined ones to save on cost as there are other CSs to be set in future.

Also a pair of WSS drops.

Hopefully they will arrive before the year is out, fingers firmly crossed there will not be any delay in shipping the pink Sapphire to the bench in China!

I’ve been on a little spree again. My emerald/green fam is nearly complete—I’d like some earrings but haven’t figured out a style and size that I’m in love with yet. Anyway, here are my latest acquisitions (small Cartier love in YG, VCA malachite Alhambra bracelet, pre-loved emerald ring—“Eva Pearon”—and small Cartier JUC in YG). Shown with Zara dress and Bottega snap clutch in Racing Green. Back to self-imposed Ban Island until Spring.

Ohhhhh...this whole ensemble is dreamy!!! You have such a good eye for curating. All of your pieces flow so nicely together. Each one has its own character, but they all go together beautifully. And green is definitely your color!
