I've just treated myself to a few bargains from Gemporia. I don't usually do big flashy stones, but fancied something a bit different and these did not disappoint. Not to everyone's taste I know, but I love them! Please show me yours Smile

@70isaLimitNotaTarget

I know its on my left but it does fit the right hand if my paws are cold
What stone is that? I love the colour!!

@VenusClapTrap

This was my mum’s engagement ring. It’s very thin now, and the local jeweller told me it only has a couple of years left in it before it will wear through completely. I’ll be devastated - I’ve worn it ever since my mum died.
That's really beautiful. What year (roughly) is it from, out of curiosity?

46 it's a QVC Diamonique Tanzanite Grin

Tanzanite in it's real form can vary in colour from a lilac-ry to a blue/purple .
The simulation is a AAAA grade , stone is big so shows all flashes of colour from red to green to yellow .
It's one I wear if I'm feeling flashy but it was £25 so if it got lost or damaged I wouldn't be too gutted !

It's a stunning blue and looks worth way more than £25 😂

Thanks @evilharpy. It was bought in 1969.

Thanks also to those who’ve suggested I revisit getting it remade. I will think about it!

My mum's engagement ring is kind of similar and would have been from around the same time. I love cluster style rings, they are so pretty.

@DedalusBloom I loooooove TGF! Great rings!

SlipperTripper · 03/12/2021 15:06

Here's mine ☺️

It was a bit of an impulse buy at an antique fair in the summer. We lost my DD at 22 weeks last year, and her birthstone is sapphire, so had been looking for a sapphire ring and I couldn't not bring this one home.

Surprise DD2 is due in April, her birthstone will be diamond - I reckon DD1 planned it, so I didn't have to buy a new ring 😂

Beautiful

LumosSolem · 03/12/2021 15:57

@SlipperTripper 💐

What a beautiful ring. So nice to have both of your DD's birthstones together. Congratulations on DD2, I'm April myself, typical of me to have the most expensive birthstone! 😂

MonkeyGoneToHeaven · 03/12/2021 16:16

I wear this one every day; it has 21 diamonds and belonged to my grandmother. I love it.

I've asked for this one for Christmas after someone posted about buying their dd one for her birthday.

@SlipperTripper I absolutely love that! Very nice.

@RollneckJumper thank you. I bought from a local jewellers that sells new and antique/pre loved/Second hand (!) jewellery. I don't know how old it was when I got it about 15 years ago. (It's platinum and diamonds)

icelolly99 · 04/12/2021 10:11

Just scrolled through the comments I'd missed.
Lovely rings @VenusClapTrap and @SoupDragon
😊

Sgtmajormummy · 04/12/2021 10:17

This is my “family” ring. Our names are engraved inside each of the three (then four) interconnected rings.

I wear this one every day. It was my grandmother's, she had it made for her when she was in her 20's, so would have been late 1930's. I've had it since I was 16 as I inherited it when she died and I love it. Excuse the fat fingers and dry skin Blush I'm rocking my winter hands at the moment Grin
