They're kind of gaudy, don't you think?

These could be gaudy. That is why I wanted advice. Is it possible to go large without being gaudy. My girlfriend is only missing a few stones from her collection She does not have the lessor quality of one with some peach tone. She did inherit a pink morganite but it is kept in a lockbox with her other better quality stones. She likes large rings and bracelets.

I was worried that the 2nd Morganite ring would not be large enough and probably was not looking at if it was gaudy.Guess you can see why I need help! Also I was worried about the 1st ring being pave set versus prong set. Is pave set stones ok to have?

Items numbers are 148-576 and 149-704 at the E network.

That can afford at this time or maybe a slight bit higher with 2 girls in college.

Too guady? Ha ha that is what I thought about some of the Heidi something she wears often. I guess I alike small and dainty. Shh...I probably agrree with that statement on most jewerlry she wears but she always ends up looking charming.

I like the first one.

I like the first one too. It looks more elegant to me.

What a nice friend you are, OP!

I like the first one better, also. You can always return it if you don't like it.

Morganite is a beautiful stone.

Don't know if this is synthetic or a real gem, but I think it would be better without all the surrounding stones.

Thanks so much for your advise. I trust the advice you share since you have much more knowledge on quality and style than I do.

The video is on E V I N E. The 1st one is clearance priced at slightly above $1000 with about 1/2 and retail of around $2,500. This sounds like a deal but it is not a deal if it looks terrible.

I think it is worth a look see.and an appraisal from a local jeweler. BTW...yes I am going to get a piece of Chaco Canyon (sp?) for her also for the holidays. TOO MANY girls and I have to get my shopping done. As in too many girls in the family and not TOO many girlfriends. ROFL.

I agree. After looking at rings for months, the morganite continues to draw me to it. It reminds me of a Princess. Maybe I feel this way being father to daughters that like pinks, peach, and purple.

I may regret it but I just bought Item in the first photo. The price break was too good to miss but I am going to be uneasy until it arrives and I see it. Since the package will come in my name, it should be safe from prying eyes. GF will just think I purchased a race car part.

I had to come back and state this. No diamonds are not my best friend but they are not suppose to be. I can say anyone that does not love a furbaby has never had one. BTW the initials IG make me think of our IGGY that is so precious. Through time I will mention a few breeds because through life each child was allowed their own chose of which dog they wanted as long as they were rescues. We do have one that was not a rescue. My motto is don't shop but adopt.

The first one is lovely. I think you will be very pleased when you see it in person

The peach and pink colors in the second ring clash. I'd never put them together in the same piece.

Tfirst one is traditional. I like it.

Re: Opinions please

violann — Mon, 26 Oct 2015 12:48:30 GMT

I thought the second setting was fresher and more unique, and I would not personally be concerned about "clash" BUT I think the first one is beautiful too.

I like them both. I have a 6 carat morganite and I love it although I don't wear it very often. That's quite a large stone in that ring. Let us know how the ring is when you get it - hope it's everything you anticipate and more.

Hi! I prefer the first one as well. Do let us know how she likes it! (How do I get on your Christmas gift list, BTW?? ) I love simple designs, and this one is similiar to a morganite ring I had custom made last year. I sourced the stone separately (13.07 ct., 16x12 mm) and had it set in 18k rose gold with about 1.50 ct. diamonds. I love anything in the peach, coral, and orange color families!

Where are you going to wear the ring you purchased?

Just read more closely-where is the person you are buying this for going to wear it?
