Spring and summer are the perfect times to enjoy our semiprecious jewelry so I’m reviving this thread! This is my prehnite ring by Jamie Joseph - I love how she creates her pieces so they glow in the sunlight.

Question: I’m thinking of getting a smaller stone ring set in silver or white gold...maybe like a pear or marquis or elongated shape about 5-8 mm in an opal, smoky quartz, citrine, moonstone, amethyst or rutilated quartz. What do you think would look nice? Any suggestions on designers?

I don´t know why I can´t find how to start a new thread anymore. (
Lately I discovered old Garnet (often from Bohemia) again.
Does anyone want to post theirs or even start a new thread?
Some may have inherited such wonderful pieces:

They glow wonderfully

So here are two Lapis pieces I designed. I adore pearls and Victorian jewels so these are sans diamonds! Gem quality Lapis Lazuli from Afghanistan (I custom ordered and paid the cutter very well as I love his work) and Australian South Sea pearl (15mm) in the middle (perfect AAA, pink overtone) and surrounded by keshi pearls. Set in 18KWG. My son wears the brooch the most as he can just rock it! My wife loves the earrings.
