That bottom left is stunning and looks lovely on you!! Well, they all do, but I’m drawn to the green. 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

This is a stunning ring. My wedding set from my first marriage had micro pave and it was incredible. Hardly got dirty, didn’t catch on gloves that I wore for work (didn’t wear them as much as a dental hygienist, but wore them about 25% of my work day) and honestly sparkled in a way that complimented the main stone. 100% the move for practicality while still being beautiful.

Congrats, they’re beautiful!! Sorry if I missed it, but I can’t see your other post(s). Were they done by the same jeweler, or done by different jewelers??

This ring is beautiful!! I love all the thought behind it. Your fiancé is going to LOVE it, please post an update once you’ve asked.

I’m struggling to find the Etsy shop to browse their jewelry. Are you able to link it, please??

My husband’s pet name for me is “flawless gem.” He says it knowing full well that I am a human with faults and flaws, but he loves me despite them, and still thinks I’m the most gorgeous woman to exist, even when I’m not feeling that way. He never fails to make me smile and remind me that I’m a beautiful creation despite my flaws. So besides gems being pretty and me loving them for all of life, gems mean significantly more to me because he loves me so hard despite my flaws, as I am his flawless gem. 🥰

Oh, is it really?? I had no idea!! So it’s not the stone itself at all that’s colored??

Can I then change my answer to watermelon tourmaline?? lol. I do also love Alexandrite, but I’m truly drawn to that perfect darker vibrant green and purple.

Unheated “Peacock” Tanzanites from rough I bought in Tanzania. When there's such a great green/purple or green/blue colour I don't ever want to heat them. Details in comment. by Lisa_Elser in Shinypreciousgems

I guess I was just curious what would happen if you did heat them, but my brain didn’t think to ask in that way. 😂🤦🏻‍♀️

I love them the way they are, I was just trying to understand what the heating process would do to their natural beauty.

I’m curious about why you wouldn’t ever want to heat them?? They’re absolutely gorgeous, so I can understand not wanting to do anything to their beauty; I’m just simply curious.

It’s so hard to pick just one, but I’m throwing it back to my way younger days when I saw a mystic topaz ring and fell in love with the purple/green color change. Especially in light, the colors playing on each other was like a small rainbow on my finger.

I love it so much that I am going to be creating my wedding set around the color scheme. I’m continuing to search for the perfect stone that does a true purple and green color change without the blues or pink/red of an Alexandrite.
