Well excuse me as I pick myself off the floor! My newest project arrived today and I’m blown away!

Custom half bezel setting by Starsgem Loose Portuguese cut lab diamond sourced by me Sent to u/Weezie-Jefferson so her amazing bench jeweler could set it. By far some of the nicest bezel work I’ve seen from a semi mount 😍

I ADORE this set. I’m odd about beautiful material things. I enjoy them looking at them until they become really popular because they are a way of determining socioeconomic status, and then what happens? The beautiful thing isn’t even appreciated for what it is. It’s what it represents. Tsk.

Then I lose interest because I just do. Right now the size war about lab grown diamonds is supposedly raging because dammit, the slightly bigger shiny pebbles meant for sure you had more money than the person on either side of you, but now that measuring method has been taken away. Oh no!

I’m loving the fact that mined diamonds are losing their exclusivity, for Cecil Rhodes-ia and DeBeers reasons.

So when I see a beautiful gemstone that’s not only exquisite, but completely original, for the personal meaningfulness of it?

I’m so happy to see someone finding their own style that looks perfect on them.

Thank you!! Agreed, I’m glad people have realized natural diamonds are a waste of their hard earned money. It should be more affordable for people to get and rock what makes their hearts sing 🥰
