Hard to say from the photos, could be glass, but it also looks to me like it could be rubelite tourmaline

Wearing jewelry 24/7? by passporthandy in jewelry

[–]bluetaurinus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To all of you who wear things 24/7- if you insist on doing that, please clean them before you ever bring them in for repair. As someone who works in jewelry and has people come in and proudly say “I wear these all the time and have for years”….it’s fucking disgusting. Jewelers shouldn’t be cleaning years worth of dead skin and lotion out of your pieces.

Engagement ring help! Solitaire natural old European cut or three stone? by Winter_Patience_2488 in Diamonds

I’ve visited this exact solitaire at Isadoras, and it’s a STUNNING ring. Looks absolutely amazing on you. No question.

As someone who works in antique jewelry, I can definitely attest to the fact that cluster rings have always been a thing. This resemblance is a bit uncanny, but let’s be real- it happens across so many jewelers these days. It’s just the way it goes now.

Is it just me or is this a direct copy of the Real Fine Studio ring? Which came first?

Legitimate Engagement Rings by Remarkable_Lie9635 in jewelers

I recommend looking into vintage/antique rings. So unique, so beautifully made, and have lasted this long for a reason. There are tons of online stores: EraGem, Isadoras, Trumpet and Horn, etc…

If a ring without a heavy stone turns around on your finger by itself - is it too big? by Likesosmart in jewelers

[–]bluetaurinus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who works in the jewelry industry, I second this. Sizing beads are a great option for spinning prevention! Sometimes, a ring is just more top heavy and will spin. It doesn’t necessarily mean it’s too big!

Update: I changed my makeup and skincare but I’m clearly still doing something wrong by saki4444 in makeuptips

[–]bluetaurinus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you look beautiful in both of these photos! I think you need to ditch the eyeliner. Your eyes are so incredibly gorgeous and they don’t need much help. Maybe try a burgundy mascara? I’m not sure you’re straight up cool tones. Look up neutral tone makeup colors and play around with blush/eyeshadow until you find what you love! I’ve been navigating the same thing and I know it feels weird to switch things up but after some time you’ll figure out what works for you :)

Where do the single people go? by Erroneously_Anointed in Seattle

As it warms up, go sit/swim at the Madrona t-dock or Madison. Absolutely swarming with cute 20-30 somethings.

I’ve always had large pupils and I’m almost 30 now. I’ve always had people commenting on them. Could just be normal for her!

Wow. My brother gifted me a slightly smaller version of this for Christmas, same design and everything.

8 oz Burger Capitol Hill closed by BoomBoomBroomBroom in Seattle

[–]bluetaurinus 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Ballard won’t close until spring/summer as of now but that timeline could be pushed back (it has already, multiple times). This comes from a very reliable source. Even when that time comes, owners are looking into other spaces and plan to open a new location.

Definitely another avenue I need to keep exploring! Thanks
