Show me your Leon Mege rings

[bem3231]

Hi everyone!

I've enjoyed lurking here and ogling everyone else's Leon Mege rings, so I thought that it was perhaps time that I post my own. It was custom made in 2008. I live in Canada and so dealt with Leon through phone and e-mail, meeting with him a few times in person when I was in NYC on business. He was delightful to work with - definitely opinionated, but in my experience his take on things related to what will and won't work as far as his rings go is pretty much spot on. He always made himself available to me for questions, follow-up, etc., and my ring was ready right on schedule.

My stone was not sourced through him, it was sourced through Jon at Good Old Gold (whom I would recommend a million times over!). I will attach the specs for my stone below.

Thanks for looking, and thanks to all of those who have already shared your Leon masterpieces with members of this lovely forum!

Thanks to you and to everyone else for the kind comments! I will take a couple of handshots and post them within a day or so.

thanks you so much! I'm kind of embarrassed it's been dragged out all over here but I'm very excited. He called Leon yesterday and when we were talking today, something felt different. A different that could mean he started making the ring! here's hoping

I'm just wondering how long it took Leon to make your rings? I know it's 4-6 weeks but my boyfriend is wondering how long it usually takes. Thank you!
