I want to treat myself and buy a really nice gemstone, cocktail ring.

I don't want to get married again so I will never have an engagement ring again. But I really like gemstone rings and I want to buy a nice one to enjoy and then to give to my daughter one day. I really like morganite or sapphire but I am open to all gemstones.

Any ideas? Do any of you wear that kind of thing?

I have this one, but would love a coloured stone set one. I love emerald cut aquamarines, or smoke quartz. Will check out some of the suggestions here are there are some beautiful rings.
That's very like my engagement ring.

Something a bit different but I love it. Bought this on Murano a couple of years ago.

@grownup2 been looking again at TJC auctions - are the gemstones genuine? Some of them seem too cheap to be real!

Quite a few are man made.

OMG this thread is a thing of dreams 😍 this is one of my favourite rings. Believe it or not it's Pandora! The stone is Chalcedony. Apologies for my shocking nails, running around after a 15 month old these days I dont get chance to fart let alone sort my nail varnish out 😂

They are all real unless they state otherwise. You have to read and view the images closely though, as at the cheaper end some of the gems are either very small or not top quality in colour and clarity. However, I've only ever been disappointed by the pearls. They often use gems that happen not to be very valuable. They are good with returns if you don't like anything - very fast - but you have to pay return postage.
