These stones arrived today and the quality is really good. I’d recommend the vendor, finestonespk on Instagram, if you’re looking for bargain and willing to take a bit of a gamble, check him out. He has some very pretty stones and is nice to work with. Shipping was crazy quick, like 4 days from Pakistan.I get in certain moods where I’m really into one CS or another. Lately I’ve really been feeling aquamarine. I bought two yesterday from a vendor I found on Instagram. I think CVB has sourced colored stones from him before so I figure I might as well give it a shot. If anything goes wrong, I’ll let PayPal handle it.
Aqua #1
They look much better in the video than in the screenshot.

I’m think I’m just going to go full drama with this one and set it like Liz Taylor’s engagement ring. It’s always been my favorite Asscher and unless I win the Powerball, I’ll never have a diamond big enough to set like that.
Aqua #2

I had him throw this one in just because. They’re both a bit more gray than I normally like, but I have a bunch of aquas, so I might as well collect the whole color spectrum. No idea on how I’d set this one. It will probably just sit in my To Be Set drawer for a while.

Oh my matching pendant!!! Love it!!
We are about 1.5 hrs outside of LA now (used to live in Pasadena and love that area), with my little kiddos and their current ages, southern CA is my only option for a PS get together lol. I think they have done them in the past in LA, would be so fun. Or in Orange county or San Diego on the beach lol. Im originally from San Diego and my family is still there, LaJolla Shores and the Delmar beach will always be some of my favorite places on earthOh, yeah! That'd be great. I'm from L.A. and would love to see my old stomping grounds again!
I don’t mind a bit! It is my HG tourmaline and I wore it for four days straight after picking it up I’ve been on the hunt for a statement tourmaline ring for about two years after a shady jeweler “lost” a 22ct dark forest green tourmaline ring that was in for polishing. This one tops it in Every. Single. Way.Seriously? OMG!!!! Your tourmaline ring is to die for. I am a huge fan of green tourmalines and yours is cut to perfection! I'm adding your ring to my photo collection for future dream ring reference. Hope you don't mind. Falls over and passes out.
Feeling boasted by how well my 1st pre-owned eBay purchase worked out (18k gold & diamond bar bracetlet on page 6), I just made another pre-owned purchase on eBay. And it's coming all the way from Japan! Finger crossed this will be a good purchase too.
Platinum & diamond flower necklace with adjustable chain
In the next two/three months I should be receiving a ruby in a buttercup and a sapphire in a cluster.
Last two rings and I am done.
I need to be satisfied with what I have.
Both sound gorgeous!!!!! I am especially excited to see the ruby in the buttercup.
Which metals did you choose for each? Is the buttercup an antique or antique repro?

I've been thinking of this Tiffany Paper Flower ring in rose gold. They brought it in for me and I saw it today, I just want to sleep on it. It's for a special occasion - I got a new job and moving to San Diego. I just can't decide whether to get it here before I go, or wait to buy it there. I want it now
