Paraiba Tourmaline 14K WG ring with pink sapphires
Here's a paraiba tourmaline 14K gold ring up for sale. It was custom made by Hidden Treasure Gems on Etsy last year. I don't seem to wear it all that much so I am letting this go for a steal. I guess I prefer faceted stones versus cabochons. The paraiba does have a wonderful neon glow and the diamonds and sapphires have plenty of sparkle.
Description of ring from vendor: Ring, 14K white gold; the halo-type setting with five prongs set with a pear-shaped cabochon Brazilian Paraiba (copper-bearing tourmaline). The tourmaline is surrounded by a single row "halo" of round 1.1mm faceted bright pink natural sapphires (estimated total weight for the 26 stones, 0.20ct). The shoulders of the ring are set with 1.4mm round brilliant-cut diamonds (F-G color, VS average clarity, ideal cut, total weight for the 20 stones is 0.23ct). The gallery of the ring is bezel-set with two round faceted natural yellow sapphires (total weight for the two stones is 0.05ct). The ring size is 6.5. Stamps or marks: "14K S" Gross weight: 4.01 gm
Specs of stone: Shape: pear-shaped cabochon Size: 9.05mm x 6.60mm x 4.0mm Weight: 1.57 cts Origin: Brazil Treatment: Oil Description: Nice bright "neon" blue-green color of medium saturation, moderate inclusions, nearly transparent Note: There is a small surface reaching inclusion visible but it does not traverse the stone.

Asking $1650 (was $2200) (plus shipping and PayPal fees). It barely covers the cost of the stone alone so it's like getting the ring setting for free. I am a private seller so all sales are final.
