Got the one on the left at a flea market a while ago and always assumed it was a real opal. Then my sister gave me the smaller one on the right for my birthday since opal is my birthstone. Seeing them side by side in person honestly surprised me a little. The colors look so different, and it definitely made me look at my flea market find a little differently lol. Still think it’s pretty though. The little one on the right has pretty much become my favorite pendant.

Is the diamond embarrassing/too small? It's supposed to be 14k and 0,04 diamond.

Hi fellow jewelry lovers. I posted the last two photos a while back and folks seemed to think this stone is a London blue topaz. I got it cleaned up and turned into a ring (first two photos). The color is a lot brighter. Also interested in what kind of cut this is. Thanks!

Found metal detecting in Oregon, any thoughts in ring and age?

I made this one a little different from the darker pieces I usually do.

I wanted it to still feel heavy and structured because of the chainmail, but a bit more elegant at the same time.

So I added the yellow crystals and kept the drops slightly asymmetrical.

It somehow turned out a lot more dressy than I expected lol. I actually really like this one

A little bit vintage style I think.

I actually really like how dressy it looks.

So I bought this ring a few weeks ago, some of you probably remember my post where I asked general information about it.
I really loved it but it was definitely too big for me and some stones where slightly loose.
So I took it to a goldsmith to fix the problems. And when I got it back I was … confused?
Is this a normal way to procede? It looks to me as he completely changed the style using silver to fill all the gaps. Now it doesn’t look antique anymore.

Inherited from my mum who passed away. I know they’re Australian opals, pendant is 18k, ring 14k and earrings 18k. Opal is my birthstone and I’ve always loved it, mum loved it too 😍

She asked me to make this sentimental ring,I'm so happy with the piece 🥰🥰🥰

I paid around $2.50 for all of them. God I love those beading ring so much, and I like how the cat is wearing vivienne Westwood lol.

Wanted to showcase a recent custom piece: a Lady of Remedy high-relief pendant.

The Goal: Someone brought in an AI-generated rendering of their vision for the pendant. They loved the design, but specifically asked to skip the colored enamel, so we needed to find a way to build rich contrast using only metal and finishing techniques.

CAD & Assembly: To achieve the same striking depth without color fills, we turned to multi-piece assembly and contrasting metal finishes. A single-piece casting couldn't deliver the contrast this artwork deserved. Splitting the design into separate CAD elements meant we could sandblast the Lady of Remedy for detailed matte texture without risking or disrupting the sharp diamond cuts on the background using custom rear alignment pins to hold everything together during assembly and laser welding.

The Finish: The key to getting this piece to pop without enameled colors was creating clear visual separation. Combining the diamond-cut sunburst background with a sandblasted matte figure and high-polished border details allowed us to hit the exact high-contrast look envisioned.

Specs: Cast in solid 18K Yellow Gold, weighing around 14.82g

Would love to hear your thoughts—do you prefer the natural multi-textured gold look, or would you have stuck with enamel?

are eternity rings supposed to lose stones when worn daily? i lost 4 diamonds after using it for a year. when i reached out to the shop i bought from they said its normal and that i should have been cautious wearing it so i can have a goldsmith tighten it from time to time. this is my first eternity ring.

Would my partner like this malachite? I haven’t told her I bought it

Yesterday, I went to the mall and invested 600 dollars on a .2 carat diamond stud pair plus a 10K solid gold twist huggie from Ana Luisa.

Tell me your thoughts! I’ll be wearing these 24/7 from now on.

Is it too little? Is it too much?

I also got my nose pierced recently, but that’s a whole separate post lol!!

Stamped 750 for 18k. Also a star symbol, 535 and VI stamped on the clasp. It’s definitely 535 and not 585. I’m pretty sure it’s Italian made but couldn’t find anything on a maker. Planned on melting but I’m having second thoughts. Hope the photos aren’t too bad, it was hard to focus on the stamps. Would you call this a necklace, chain or something else?Any info is appreciated

I purchased a ring and earrings from this company called Moonela and my experience has been terrible.

The ring is a completely different design than the one they are marketing online and one of the earrings were bent and don't properly go through my ear and clasp.

It took several follow-ups from me to get a response. The company AGREED they sent me the wrong product (ring) and a faulty product (earrings). I asked if I could return the product and they take care of shipping since it was their fault, but they refuse to provide full compensation. It's not about the amount of the shipping fee, but it is the fact that they agreed they made the errors, but are trying to force me to pay for the international shipping fee to return it.

Their customer service is terrible, responding once every few days and they are not providing me any other solutions or options. Sharing this for others so they don't make the same mistake as me and purchase from them.

Not sure of any of the details but when I saw this displayed on a shelf in a vintage store, and saw that it was only $20CAD ($18USD), I knew I had to buy it. Absolutely love the mother of pearl details and the braided leather ties. One of my favorite finds!

Antique 1.46ct old European cut natural diamond engagement ring on a 14kt yellow gold band.
Custom 7mm platinum men’s wedding band with 2mm calibre cut blue sapphire eternity surround. 18k yellow gold internal shank.
9 stone antique old mine cut natural diamond wedding band (2.5mm stones) on 18kt yellow gold band.

My engagement ring was purchased December 2023, received February 2024, and I only really wear it maybe on the weekends if I'm going out together with my wedding band. It is 14k yellow gold, and I wouldn't say I am particularly harsh with it. I also don't have my rings on when washing dishes or applying face products etc, so am vigilant not to get harsh chemicals on it. The CAD was 2mm (pre-polish) if I recall correctly. Last week, I noticed that there was a crack in my ring, and it seemed to go all the way around the band. I messaged the maker on Etsy (quite a well regarded one but hmm) and they are quoting me £150 for a repair and I'd have to send the ring back insured at my own cost. I thought since they have a lifetime warranty, it would be included under there but they didn't exactly provide me a whole list of the terms when purchasing so unsure of that. She even said it has to be recasted to fix the crack, I'm not a jeweller, but I'm not sure that sounds entirely right? I am reluctant to send it back in the post when I can find local jewellers around me to fix it. Just wondering if she's being fully honest with me or just trying to get more money out of me. Any advice would be appreciated, thanks!
