Price Reduction!! Offered for sale is a 1.11 carat I color SI1 clarity GIA certified Old European cut diamond. The GIA # is laser inscribed on the girdle of the diamond, so you can be sure of what you are receiving. Retail price for this diamond was over $5000 when I purchased it last year. This diamond is bright, lively, has excellent sparkle, fire and life, a beautiful snowflake pattern, large spread, and great color. I’m selling because I’m a perfectionist and I’m realizing that I can’t handle the “wonki-ness” that is characteristic of OECs. I also want to do an upgrade on my main diamond ring. If you value beautiful performance, great size and color for the price, this is one to consider. It’s a beautiful diamond with some “wonki-ness”--the petal pattern under the table is less impressive than I’d like and in bright sunlight, there is some girdle reflection that is noticeable on close inspection (from normal viewing distance, it's difficult to spot). I have videos showing the diamond in different lighting. Other pictures and videos are available. Payment accepted through PayPal only please. The price includes USPS Priority Insured shipping to your PayPal-verified U.S. address. As I am a private seller, all sales are final, but I'm willing to use an appraiser as a proxy, if desired by buyer. Email: bkitik@yahoo.com . Thanks for looking!

Offered for sale is an 18K yellow gold five stone OEC ring with hallmarks placing it as manufactured in Bristol England in 1893. I purchased this from an Etsy antique vendor based in England--Lillicoco. I love this ring and hate to part with it, but I have my eye on something really special, so I need to raise the cash to move forward. The first picture is mine. The rest of the pictures are from the original vendor. The following description is from the original listing:
"This spectacular Victorian 5 Diamond ring is a beautiful example of late 18th Century design and craftsmanship. It has a total of 0.75 carats of Old Cut Diamonds, expertly set into fine 18ct Gold, so it sparkles and shines magnificently.
We love the way that the old cuts shine differently to modern brilliant cut Diamonds. They have a charming and distinct fire that manages to catch the eye in all lighting conditions!
The Diamonds are of exceptional quality, with a bright white colour and excellent clarity. We estimate the Diamonds to be D-G colour and VS-VVS clarity.
The ring is ever so slightly graduated, with the largest Diamond (a 0.50ct gemstone!) in the centre. But it still works well as a stacking ring, and sits nicely with other band type rings if you want to wear it as a wedding, anniversary or eternity ring. It also has a typical antique claw-setting so you can rest assured it can be worn with confidence.
Diamonds are very hard gemstones so are an ideal choice for an engagement ring, wedding ring or very special dress ring for daily wear.
Overall a very lovely, twinkly ring with bags of authentic antique charm!

This is a deep pink heart shaped 0.96 carat spinel cut by Brett Kosnar of KosnarGemCo on Etsy. The first two pictures are mine. The last one is from Brett's original listing. This price is a deep discount from what I paid. It's a lovely stone, but I have too many loose stones to set. Someone else needs to enjoy this pretty little treasure.
Here is the original description from Brett's Etsy store:
"Gem: Spinel
Weight: 0.96 cts.
Size: 6.26 mm.
Color: Rich Hot Pink
Clarity: SI
Cut: Heart
Locality: Tanzania
Treatment: None
This is just a gorgeous Spinel! The color is a rich hot pink that is so saturated and vibrant. The color just stands out like the finest ruby. As a matter of fact, these kind of Spinels were prized as the best rubies for centuries. There are actually called Ruby Spinels on the market. They have a very similar chemistry and physical properties, so these stone should absolutely be just as valuable as rubies. This stone is from Tanzania, which is one of the leading producers of Spinel in the world. The quality they have produced lately has been outstanding and some of the finest in the world. This is a shapely and hard to find heart shape. This stone will make an absolutely stunning piece of jewelry, particularly a ring, and this stone will make a fantastic engagement ring! Enjoy!"

This is a lot of two loose stones. The first is a roughly 6-millimeter hexagonal pink Mahenge garnet. The cut is exceptional, and the color is a light to medium pink, slightly on the coral pink side. The stone is bright and sparkly.
The second stone is a purple grape colored garnet, roughly 7 millimeters by 8 millimeters. The color is an intense purple.
I'm selling both at a deep discount because I do not have the original listing photos and my photo skills are not the greatest. Although a little blurry, these photos pretty accurately represent the gem colors.
