Grandma's locket
Found this tucked away in my Grandma's old sewing box. I don't know anything about its history but it's marked with the year 1862. It has definitely seen some wear over the years but I think there is something magical about it!

I Just Found this Crazy 14k Gold Ring in a Thift Store
Ok so this is maybe one of the most unique rings I've ever seen and I'm so excited about it 😊 Btw if anyone knows what this ring style is called pls let me know. I went to a couple of jewelers for a quote and to get it examined recently but they all told me that they would just melt it down for the gold value if I turned it in and I was like noo I am taking this baby home this artwork cannot be destroyed.

Male Wedding Set

Sharing my wedding set because I feel like we don’t see enough from the gents around here!

Both rings were made by Canturi in Australia.

Top band – My engagement ring in yellow gold, featuring 15 baguette and carré-cut natural white diamonds (total 1.04ct, E–F colour, VVS–VS clarity).

Bottom band – My wedding band, also in yellow gold, with 11 princess-cut natural yellow diamonds (total 1.63ct, F–I colour, VVS–VS clarity).

Couldn’t be happier with how they turned out, subtle sparkle, but with serious presence.

Had my very antique ring professional cleaned.

I got this piece awhile back, and my attemps at trying to get the gunk out of it weren't going well, so I brought it to my jeweler to have it properly cleaned. It literally had decades if not centuries of dirt/grime/God knows what caked into it (See last photo). I know some people prefer patina, but it felt a little gross with how dirty it was, not to mention detracting from the sparkle of the diamond.

I wish my photos could do it justice. It looks amazing and is now probably one of my favorite pieces.

Rose cut diamond with a silver topped and 18k band!

Just got engaged and was told to post my ring here!

He proposed to me at Glacier National Park in Montana on the Sun Point hike!!

Specs that I know of on the ring - center stone is a rhodolite garnet, the rest are all diamonds and it’s set in rose gold (even though I’ve always considered myself a yellow gold girl, I made an exception for this) Size 10, though it’s a little big so will probably be getting it resized?

I found this ring on Facebook marketplace of all places almost 8 months ago - it was love at first sight - I KNEW it was my ring. The pictures didn’t do it justice but I just knew. I sent it to my boyfriend as ringspo but to my dismay it sold almost immediately. The original price of the ring was something I knew was out of our budget so this whole time I was just praying he’d somehow find something I loved as much as I loved the one I found - well little did I know it sold so fast because he was the one that bought it! He got it fixed up and cleaned and has been sitting on it for MONTHS!!

Just wanted to share it here and see what the really jewelry appreciaters thought!

In love with my heirloom wedding rings

I’ve been seeing a lot of rings on Reddit while planning my wedding this year. Now, I finally get to wear my full wedding ring set. I’m in love.

It was my grandmother’s ring. She had it custom designed in the 1960s in San Francisco by an artist named S. Paul Gee. She wore it for 40 years of marriage. Last year, I was proposed to with this ring and happened to also be in San Francisco. The engagement ring is pictured. The band nests perfectly on top.

Just wanted to come here and gush a little bit. It feels so special to have my grandmothers ring and I absolutely love it. 🧡

3 weeks to go. Help me pick my wedding band!

Option 1: Classic dome, matches engagement ring’s shank Option 2: Flat band Option 3: Chevron band

I would ideally like to wear them together every day. Not opposed to soldering, not opposed to keeping separate.

The pearls I’ve always wanted 🤍💍
My partner (27M) and I (26F) have been together five years. I had my suspicions the moment was coming; and it couldn’t have been more perfect. Some of my must haves were yellow gold and not gaudy (didn’t want heart shape or marquise diamonds). I personally always wanted a pearl ring but I knew it wouldn’t be practical for daily wear. He told me he had it made with Ashley using custom made.com. I can’t stop looking at it so they did a great job!
