[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 3067054, member: 36"]I bet there is too. That's going to be interesting. [USER=17017]@TraceyB[/USER] .... this was Moms engagement ring turned into a cocktail ring....but the main stone could be older than that and come from a distant relative.... [ATTACH=full]291909[/ATTACH] What am I going to do with it >>>?????? I can't wear it.... A jeweler told me the main diamond is stunning.. VVS1 or better....F or better...& an excellent cut... I thought about pulling the stone and making a pendant that I'd wear.....but that's not my thing... I don't want to sell it......unless I get top dollar....which ya can't guarantee ... So what.....kick it on down the road to my daughter.....who will see it the same as I do...???? It's not even my favorite piece of her jewelry !!!! The only thing I know for certain, is that how Mom feels about what I do with her possessions which are now mine ...does not enter into my decision as to where this bauble ends up !! The items that I wanted to remember her by....are not even in my possession...[/QUOTE] You can always dump it on me if you have to.(LOL) It's not my style either, but it's "sparkle, bling".
