Will do one reduction on this one to $195 - thanks for looking!

Up today is this ring that I had made for me about a year ago by Patrick Irla. This ring has a sterling silver band, an 18k yellow gold flower accent, and two natural diamonds, each approx. just over 3 mm, with the tcw being approx .25 cts. Patrick custom made this ring for me, using a pair of diamonds that I owned (that were previously set in a pair of stud earrings). The ring is a size 7.5. The silver portions of the ring have a beautiful texture, and the band is around 1.8 mm wide. It is marked 18k and 925, and also P. Irla. The diamonds are bezel set in Patrick's custom made setting, and they do have tiny openings underneath the bezels as is typical when setting diamonds.

I've decided to list this ring since I just don't wear it. Ever since I really got into CS, I never wear any diamonds anymore, even these little ones. This is a very cute ring!

I'm going to include part of a convo that Patrick wrote to me when I asked him to evaluate the diamonds for me; this gives a potential buyer a little more info about the diamonds and the ring.

From Patrick:

" Hi Kathryn,
The ring worked out well, I like it very much and it will work well with your other rings. The taper of the setting for the diamonds allowed for a little bit of space where they meet, just enough room to fit the little ladybug. Also the bee will fit in well just about anywhere.

I did take a look at your diamonds, and they are about average. Not great (very fine) and not horrible, just about average. In terms of quality, they are SI 2 to I 1 quality (slightly included to included) this means that some flaws are visible to the naked eye. The cut of the 2 stones is also slightly different, one is just a little bit better than the other, I set the better stone in the 1st bezel, nearest the flower. Also one stone has a small 'natural' on the edge. This is a slight flaw in the stone that comes to the surface, and is more visible. I decided to try to hide this little flaw as much as possible, so it is in the 2nd bezel (the lower one away from the flower) and the flaw is turned inward so the bezel from the 1st stone over shadows it a bit and it is difficult to see unless you know what you are looking for.

An educated guess for the value of the diamonds would be about $120 to $135 each, and I would put the entire ring value at about $500 for insurance purposes.

Thank you again,
Patrick"

As you can see from the email, I'm asking approx. the value of the diamonds for the ring.

Please ask any questions before purchasing, as I consider sales to be final. I am an active member on PS (katharath is the ID); I've sold on ebay for many years now (around 12 I think, same ID). Shipping is included within asking price, within US only.

Thanks for viewing :)
