Hello Everyone! ^_^

I recently got very fascinated with gemstone rings & decided to start a thread on this topic!

Here's my very first one (surprise from hubby :blush:) It's set in 18K white gold, the centre is a 4.12 ct Blue Topaz, with 103 tiny diamonds totalling 0.59 ct.

If you have any favourite gemstone ring or have seen any nice ones, please share or post pics! Thanks! :flower:

Your heart must be fluttering with joy when he gave it to you! :heart:

I read on the ICA website that the aquamarine promises a happy marriage, & is said to bring the woman who wears it joy & wealth! ^_^

Here's the link! :flower:

Your ring is beautiful. I wish you both all the happiness in the world. :flower:
 
gigi, GREAT THREAD!!! I love your ring, is it a heart? Also, the setting is divine :woot:.

purreow, I adore non-traditional engagement rings and yours is gorgeous :heart:.

My husband gave me a 7 1/2 carat burmese sapphire engagement ring w/two one carat each heart diamonds on each side. He and our jeweler searched for over a year until he found just the right stone :heart: :wub: :crush:.

Balbabe, thank you!! :flower: yes the blue topaz is a heart!^_^

This is my ring that my husband gave me for my 30th birthday. This is the ring from NM website in pink tourmine (sp?), I think it was priced there at $4,000. I have the exact same ring in aqua marine, it is 5 kts and 1kt in diamonds on the band and around the stone. I got mine at Marshall Fields. With the sale price and opening a new cc I saved 65% off. It is so pretty in person. I am now stalking Marshall Field's sales.... soon it will be Macy's. :(

This but with a pink topaz instead, with the change in stones the topaz is around 5 cts.
 
Sandra, Merrick, thanks for the pics!! :flower: Beautiful Rings!! :heart:

Sandra, you're super savvy! 65% OFF !!!:woot:

Merrick, I noticed in the pic that you posted that there are some smaller blue stones on the shank. Did you change those to pink as well ? ^_^

I'm 17 so I don't have a whole lot of gemstone rings-yet. The two that I own are blue topaz-one was a $30 Avon one that I dug out of the garage but the other was my promise ring that I got the Christmas after I made the decision to wait until marriage.

And blue topaz is extremely popular nowadays because of its wearability.

As far as the pink tourmaline goes, I like that stone.

I have to agree about the non-traditional engagement rings. I liked it when Nicole Richie got a pink sapphire and when I get engaged, I want something other than a diamond. Maybe a nice blue topaz or a padparascha sapphire. That's at least 5 years down the road though.
 
I love gemstones, especially emerald, sapphire, tanzanite and aquamarine. I plan on buying this ring in the new year. It's aquamarine with diamonds.
