seuqramainos * île island ilha

I want it to be special like all the other two gifts I gave her. I gave her a aquamarine gem stone three times the size of a baseball from my gemstone collection because it was the best gem stone I had, she was born in March, and it was sort of a thank you gift for loving me as a friend during a time I wasn’t very love-able. And then I am going to give her a sterling silver necklace with a dolphin pendant for X-Mas( I remembered that she likes the ocean+marine life, as do I) and I know she is just going to love it. But now I don’t know what to give her for her birthday next year on March 5th! Price doesn’t matter since I can afford a lot of things teenage girls her age and more specially she likes. I just need some suggestions, something meaningful + sweet and more prefferbly shiny, she likes shiny

get her sumthing unique that’s related 2 marine or sumthin!! hope i helped!!

I was thinking about getting a aquamarine ring from tiffany and Co, but i’m not sure if its sparkle..like does it shine like a diamond or is it like a crystal kind of shine?

is it pretty? is it worth the money?

I bought a beautiful 1 1/2 ct. t.w. emerald-cut aquamarine and diamonds ring a few months ago. I decided to replace the aquamarine gemstone with a sapphire at my local jewelry store; the owners have been in business for a long time and have excellent customer ratings. A natural sapphire would cost a lot more than I would want to spend on this ring, so I picked a lab-created gem. The jeweler told me that the cost would be about $400 plus labor. My question is, how do I know I’m paying the right price for this gem? He had some brilliant-cut sapphires on display and asked me to point which one (color) I preferred, so I haven’t actually seen the gem to replace the aquamarine. I left the ring and a down payment with the guy. What if I don’t like the ring? Can I dispute the results? Or is this one of those "this is what you asked for, all sales are final" situations where I just have to pay and move on? I don’t want to question whether he really knows what kind of gem I’m looking for, but an emerald-cut, I assume, will be a different shade from the brilliant-cut samples I saw. I just don’t want to end up with a dull, cheaper-looking gem on my ring.

The brilliant cut would have much more light refractory capabilities than an emerald cut. Last time I checked, brilliant cuts were only done in round stones but that may be different now. An emerald cut is generally rectangular. If you chose the shade while looking at brilliant cut stones, but your stone will be emerald cut, you may be dissapointed. While the actual "shade" can be the same, the luster and sparkle will not be. Your emerald cut will have a little less pizzaz than the brilliant cut ones. I, personally, do not think $400 is a fair price for a lab created stone (and mounting) but jewelry stores are always going to cost more than online sources for loose gemstones. Multicolour dotcom and JTV dotcom are two that are very reputable and have never sold me any fakes. Ebay is not a good place to look….trust me. As far as disputing the results, that would be between you and your jeweler. You could use the argument that he showed you BRILLIANT cut stones instead of emerald cut ones so you were unable to accurately judge the shade and luster of your stone. I hope you end up loving it though so you wont have to dispute it!

www.chanel.com or sometimes at the mall they have a hello kitty store that sells Chanel things like earrings.

i was wondering does the ring have to be a diamond? or could it be a gem such as aquamarine? what’s the tradition behind the diamond?

Absolutely not. As long as you are prepared for "What kind of stone is that?" and "Is that not a diamond?," a e-ring can be anything you want it to. (Yes, people will ask).

To my knowledge, the diamond tradition was started by DeBeers in a marketing campaign.
