I really like his jewelry and plan to watch his show tonight. Evine is doing a pretty good job of having jewelry shows. I've noticed that HSN has been having a few more lately too. I'm watching AV Galerie right now and they have some really pretty and unusual pieces.

Thank you so much for letting us know about the show tonight!I would love to hear back from any of you who bought something.

I recently began to purchase Michael V. jewelry. I have 3 rings. They are all gorgeous, and well-made. I like that he uses the silver/palladium alloy which makes the jewelry 5 times more tarnish resistant. His prices are very affordable. I have two Tanzanian Amethyst rings - just gorgeous - one has a euro shank and lovely engraving on the silver/palladium setting. Also, I purchased a London Blue multi - (10 one carat stones - set 3 on top, 4 in the middle, and 3 on the bottom) 10 carat ring that is so exquisite and beautifully designed. I only received it yesterday, and already I have received so many compliments. Michael's factory is in Toronto and all his jewelry is finished there. He is heavily influenced by French Rococo style design. I am so impressed with his jewelry. I will be watching him tonight!

I love to watch Michael - very informative about gems. His designs are unique and very well executed. He is like a little kid in a candy store when it comes to his gems. He loves his job - you can tell that from his enthusiasm !! He chooses top quality gemstones and his team creates beautiful pieces of art. I have been watching him for years now on and off - and, everything I learned about gemstones was basically from him. I still could kick myself for not buying a morganite ring of his years back - he had designed it for his wife and it was gorgeous - it was gone really quick and he never brought it back - that taught me a good lesson - if you like it, don't think about it, just get it...

@anisha hahahahahyaha Anisha, you sure know me well. I had no idea he made a mini cento ring. I didn't buy the 50 carat because it was too big, but this 11 ct. sure works for me. The price was under 100 bucks. I'm glad I was watching last night to see that presented. Michael is always full of surprises. I just hope the stone is as sparkly as he says it is. Have a great upcoming weekend.

That is a nice ring. Could not believe the price. I purchased the love lock in amethyst. It has already shipped!!! Got it for my bracelet. Im thinking it may be too big. It did not look to jig on tv. Anyway I will wear it as a necklace. Will post my review.

@BlingQueen022 Bingy, would you believe I just a few minutes ago got my garnet ring? I paid $15, postage for this envelope for fourth rate service. I've spent the week chasing it down. I'm livid.

Anyway, I'm a little disappointed in the garnet. The big stone is so dark, I don't really see much color in it. I do like the simple setting. I'm going to go outside and see if it brightens up any.

I also got 144-260, a London blue which may be the one someone mentions above. It's a wowsa and definite keeper. Quite a definite presence on the finger. I have several smaller London blues and have been wanting a honker. Got It!

@Kachina624 hi Kachina: Sorry about your ring. my center stone is a very dark red and you can see two sort of embers in the center of it. I like the color of mine. Again, I have one of Michael's honker oval hessonite rings I purchased a while ago. I have somethng to compare the tsv center stone too and the tsv ring stone is a definite cherry red sparkly stone. I can't believe how long it took for you get yours. Thank goodness you got it and it didn't get lost. If you keep it, wear in the best of health.

I have that London Blue ring you posted here and it's a huge chunk of london blue for sure. I haven't worn it in a while. Maybe I should dig it out and get some wear out of it. That ring will go great witht Chuck's london blue tennis bracelet I just purchased. Lots of london blue in that one. Enjoy that ring and let me know if you're going to keep he hessonite. I love mine. Love the flush of red color it gives off.

Kachina624 — Fri, 29 Jan 2016 01:54:29 GMT

@BlingQueen022 Yes, I'll have to dig out my tennis bracelet. I got it from Shop 4 or 5 years ago. I think this London Bl is more sparkly than a single stone would be.

I don't see any "embers" in my ring. I like the side stones better than the center.

@Kachina624 Glad you're pleased with Michael's LBT multi-stone band ring! I purchased it last year and wear it often. Enjoy to the fullest...it's a stunner!!

@BlingQueen022 Happy Friday, Bling! I hope you're all shoveled out and things are returning back to normal after the herendous blizzard! Like anisha, I thought of you when I saw the mini cento presented. I hope you enjoy to the fullest as it's certainly a lovely "sparkler".

Have a wonderful weekend, my friend!

@BlingQueen022 -- I ordered that, too! The big one was just "too big" for me personally but boy I happened to be watching at the right time when the mini cento was presented and I jumped right on it. Mine shows as shipped, I can't wait to see it in person. Love MV's rings.

Re: Michael V.

GinaV24 — Fri, 29 Jan 2016 18:17:07 GMT

@BlingQueen022 If I heard it correctly on the presentation, the mini cento was a debut item for that show. I was excited to see it offered. Sounds like his office got lots of calls after the cento cento was offered asking for the smaller size.

Re: Michael V.

GinaV24 — Fri, 29 Jan 2016 18:19:31 GMT

@Kachina624 sorry that you had such poor service on delivery of the ring and then aren't happy with the quality either. I ordered the pendant because I have another garnet ring of MV's. I'm not sure that the color it thrills me all that much either so it may be going back. I wanted it because it was a nice size stone and unique but these days I have to be very happy with anything I spend my $ on or back it goes.

@GinaV24 Hi Gina. Congrats on that new ring. I was surprised to see a mini version of the cento. I just happened to be going through the lineup that night and saw it. Watched the video of it and ordered it immediately. The big honker one didn't get good reviews but they were mainly because of the size of the stone. What amazes me in the reviews they said the stone was too big. They didn't know it was 50 carats when they ordered it hahahahahahaha . I'm glad he made a smaller version if you can call 11 carats small, lol. Enjoy your new ring and please post a review when you receive it. mine also shipped and can't wait to get it. The sparkle on it was electric.
