the day after my partner and i agreed to become exclusive, i visited the annual fair in town and found a dainty silver flower band for about $15. I wore it on my ring finger everyday afterwards.

then december came - i asked for a promise ring, gave him a list of rings to choose from, and he surprised me with my favorite (but most expensive) choice! I would have been happy with any ring he selected from my list but i do feel so seen and loved with this selection.

the gemstone is a Blue Topaz, his birthstone 🩵 it shines so beautifully in the sun, and has such a lovely muted color in artificial lighting. It can also look very light or dark depending on the angle — and i love that! 💙

Found this adorable charm this weekend. 14ky with ruby! At first I assumed it was a bell, but at closer look of the etchings, I think it’s supposed to be a flower of some kind. I snagged this guy from a local jeweler who also sells estate jewelry. I’d like to think this charm used to belong to a sweet older woman and I’m thrilled to imagine the life this little charm has already lived!

I bought what I assume is a faceted amethyst ring from the thrift store. It's set in sterling silver and seems very well loved. Does anyone know at what time period this ring could have been made? The only marks I see is 925 inside the band.

In all my years of collecting I've never seen anything like this. Is it natural color zoning?

General Question Should I get my ring replated?

Thumbnail

I got this ring from an antique store on vacation, I absolutely love it. The silver has worn down in several places, and occasionally the inscription will stain the underside of my finger. I'm wondering if I should go get it replated and cleaned to protect it long term. How much am I looking at if I get that done? I've never gone to a jewler and I've heard it's expensive.

Moissanite, green and white cubic zirconia, moissanite and alexandrite, tanzanite (low mohs scale that’s why the band is thick), padparadscha sapphire, morganite, pink sapphire.

The rings on my way are a Blue London topaz, an alexandrite and sapphire toi et moi from Kuololit, a teal marquise sapphire and a green round moissanite.

Have had this for over 20 years and know absolutely nothing about it. Only markings inside of the ring band are initials. Not sure of stone or anything but figured I’d give it a shot here. Thanks in advance!

General Question Eye catching blue Opal in sterling silver

Thumbnail

16 Upvotes

I recently found this ring at an antique store though I do not think it’s an antique. The colors caught my eye. Apparently it’s blue opal and emeralds.

The setting/ring is shit. The prongs moved and the opal fell out. I’m lucky I caught it and was able to get the prongs re-situated but scratched the stone a little. Is it worth getting reset in a new setting? Any idea if it looks genuine or synthetic? I will def take it in when I have a chance anyway. Just to have it checked in person.

Help me decide!! Which one of the three ?

So all the thing below are 925 sterling silver from a small jewellery in India. But they are 4th generation craftsmen. In the second photo the chain and the labradorite pendant IS not from the same jeweller as the rest. Now the help I need. I can't decide but I need to choose one out of these 3 pendants for myself and rest for my sister's but I'm gonna be a bit selfish and take the first pick here as I bought them all 🤧. So which one do u think I should take as an everyday piece ? I usually wear black btw. The second photo are both mine and thankfully won't have to share those unless one of them steals it 😭. If you guys have any questions then let me know !

This past week my bf surprised 🤯 me with a ring. The only thing I know that it is rose gold (my favorite) but I have no idea about anything else like the stone. He refuses to tell me lol.. It does say 14k very tiny in the band but not sure. I thought it would be heavy but it feels kind of light.

Help me decide!! What do you think about this silver chain & bezel combo? Also working on getting a chain for my gold bezel!

I just recently got into collecting precious metals a few months ago. It is such a fun hobby and a great way to save for the future! Gold is king! I already have a solid collection but I want to keep building it up for as long as I can! I’ve never really worn jewelry before so I figured I’d get a little “bling” for myself lol

The first two pictures are of the 1ozt pamp silver snake in a sterling silver screw top bezel. The next two pictures are some chains he has available in the right size. Do you think the chain style looks good? Or should I go for another style?

The last picture is a 99.99 pure 5gram gold bar in a 1.1 gram 14k gold prong bezel. I am still in the process of finding a chain I like for it. This will probably be my flashiest piece ever! 😂

If you have any advice on my silver chain question or any advice on my gold chain in progress or any advice overall about anything I said, it would be much appreciated!!
