Here's a ring I recently gave a new design and life to. It was inherited, and my client wanted to do something different--something that would show off the large, hot pink stone to its full advantage. This is what we started with--yellow gold simple band with prong setting surrounded by tiny diamonds:
A shot to show the scale of the stone--LARGE!!!
We discussed some of my bauble rings and reticulated jewelry and decided to design something along those lines. This is the approved drawing of the ring--featuring a bezel set stone, reticulated band, silver bubbles, and diamonds:
And the finished ring! It's truly spectacular! I LOVE it!
A few additional shots to see the whole design. My maker's mark stamped in the band, along with the year and sterling (upside down).
The stone is set in a fine silver step bezel with an open back to allow the light to pass through and reflect on the facets.
A couple of little diamonds from the original ring are tube set among the bubbles.
A success story for sure!
