My 9 Favorite Rings

#1

This is an antique iron nail from 1830! Comes from a barn in the Swiss Alps. There is 14 K gold on the head of the nail and a champagne diamond. Makes a strong statement. Ancient romans used iron rings as wedding rings! Iron and steel remind me of swords and weapons. These metals represent strength to me.

#2

Just love that deep purple amethyst. The basket setting is clunky and heavy to fit the massive stone.

#3

Unusual citrine – nothing symmetrical about the facets done by an expert stone cutter. The 3 pronged setting emulates the ‘trillion’ shape of the stone.

#4

This garnet and 14 K gold ring was custom made for a dear friend. Sometimes I am so happy when a special piece is worn by a special person.

#5

Gold ring with a big, black diamond in the rough.  This was a wedding ring for a lovely lady in Pennsylvania.

#6

Champagne diamond (0.6 ct) with lots of brilliance in a simple hammered silver ring. I love the simplicity.

#7

Gold ring with cubic rough diamonds: 2 are yellow and 2 are red. So glad that this one is on my daughters hand!

#8

A very special ring custom built for a special couple. Central black diamond in the rough, 5 trillion cut diamonds and lots of 14 K gold.

#9

14 K gold ring sporting a red octohedral diamond. This is a naturally occurring crystal shape for diamonds, but quite rare. The geometric design complements the geometry of the stone.
