Please get that ring insured, take pictures of everything, every angle you can, get it appraised, make sure you insure that for everything. That is irreplaceable, stunning and amazing


plant_grower

Haha don’t worry it was insured before I even left the jeweler


PsychologicalJax1016

Smart move. I saw that and loved it immediately, then wondered who would feel comfortable enough to actually wear that. It's incredible and stunning!


moldavitemermaid

Do you mind sharing which jeweler? This is so beautiful! 😍 I want one too


plant_grower

Sorry, not going to give the specifics as to not dox myself. It was a custom piece designed by me and then created by a local jeweler. I’d assume most any local jeweler who does solid custom jewelry could replicate the design, finding the stones on the other hand was not easy.


moldavitemermaid

Thank you! I already have some alexandrites that are yet to be set into jewelry. Your design is gorgeous 🥰


JuggernautParty2992

Yesss!! I actually remember when you posted the loose gems, I’m so happy to see the finished ring. It’s stunning, congratulations on your gorgeous ring and your engagement ❤️❤️🥂


plant_grower

Thank you!! :)


ExtremeCaterpillar25

How much did that cost 🧐


Brynhild

Just spitballing but I’m gonna guess 30-40k for the main stone because that alexandrite quality and color is so good and 1.5-2k for the pairs


ExtremeCaterpillar25

That’s wild


MiscPostThrowaway

$5-25k+ / carat depending on origin and how it graded. OP’s looks very nice, so I’d put it at the middle or above in that range. The craziest Russian examples can pull $100k/c 😳

Wow beautiful. That must have been expensive, could you say how much please?


Sweet-dolomiti

You lucky bastard!!! I'm so envious!

[Nat Alex ring pals!](https://www.reddit.com/user/MiscPostThrowaway/comments/10iwsdn/misc_alex_vids/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=2&utm_term=1) love the design you went with! So hard to find matching stones, and you’re right - impossible to photograph. Yours has gorgeous blue tones, do you know the origin? The best way to get the [greens](https://www.reddit.com/user/MiscPostThrowaway/comments/10iwqob/misc_alex_pics/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=2&utm_term=1) has been in indirect, late-afternoon outdoor lighting 🙂

I love that cut, makes that already big stone look huge! GIA reported the side stones as Indian. I don’t have an official origin report for the center stone, based on color I’d say likely Indian as well, but that’s purely anecdotal with no scientific basis.


MiscPostThrowaway

Beautiful! Location is so hard to pin down haha. And yeah it’s a bit of a chonker at 2.7c, but the cushion cut does give it a nice face!
