Wow! This is not what I had in mind at all!

I was expecting a modern type ring, since you talked about the bezel. But this is incredibly organic feeling! LOVE IT! smile

Also, the stone is great! It reacts very well to the overcast conditions I think! Nothing at all like my old RB.

Thanks Kat! Yeah, I definitely was going for an organic feel. It is much more me than the more classic/traditional looks or the antique looks (which I totally admire and love looking at, but don't fit my personality and "me" quite as much!).

They are still modern in the sense of their sculpting and clean lines, but I did want something that at the same time looked somewhat rustic and nature-inspired-looking. I also like that they always look a bit different when I wear them. The bands fit against each other in all sorts of different ways. In some ways when I place them they fit very snugly, so there is almost no gap as they "tuck" into each other, but in other ways I get more spacing. And then of course, since the melee varies across them, I get all sorts of results. I like how free-flowing they can be that way - always a bit different!

Yeah, I have to admit I was quite loving it in the overcast. People were looking at me a little oddly standing by my car in a public parking lot (by my gym) at 7:30am and taking pictures of my hand...ha. I found the faceting rather intriguing under that sky though. There definitely was some body colour in there that I noticed as I was driving, but it was not a body colour that to me screamed "green apple" or "snotcast" as I have heard some describe. Whatever it was, it was very pleasing to me personally and another property I just love about this stone. I actually like it in that lighting more than the sparkly gym lighting that gives it that really rainbow-ey sparkle, but I can be a bit weird like that!

So glad you love the set smile

I just figured out what they remind me of! They look a bit like bamboo! So, very nice clean lines, but also very natural and intriguing.

Ha ha, okay, I will put you second after MissGotRocks who had called shotgun before she ever even saw them. Though I certainly plan on these being with me forever and ever (these are the rings I should have had in the first place!), so it may be a long wait!

Thanks SB. I certainly do not want to stop anyone elses hearts, but I know mine certainly skipped a couple beats when I got them!
