Melo Pearl and Diamond Ring

[Only Natural Pearls]

I would be fascinated to see and hear everyone's experiences with designing jewellery containing natural pearls. I have recently started to design and make a couple of rings and would very much appreciate your comments. The ring is set in 18k Yellow Gold and has a natural Melo Pearl weighing 7.38ct plus two princess cut diamonds of excellent quality weighing 0.24ct. Would love to see other examples of natural pearl jewellery from you all, particularly pendants. Thanks !

Design really features the pearl, and the 18k gold is a rich color and great compliment to the color of the pearl.

This ring and your ring over at Kima show great respect for the pearls. Very clean and elegant, perfect choice of materials, nothing overdone. Shows courage and conviction!

Can I ask where did you get the melo pearl from?

It's a lovely piece. Beautiful craftsmanship appropriate to the gem selection.

A real beauty in all respects. Makes me wish I had the funds to own it!

This one has a delightful 4.50ct Melo set in 18k yellow gold and flanked by two antique cut diamonds totalling 0.26ct.

I enjoy dabbling with designs of natural pearls, so for your perusal here is an 8.80ct ivory cassis cornuta pearl set in a simple 18k yellow gold pendant dotted with small diamonds.

All comments much appreciated, thanks!

The matte gold finish is especially lovely with the cassis pearl. Would you be able to put up a profile of the melo ring? Thanks very much for the photos, and please keep them coming!

That melo pearl is gorgeous! And the designs are great.

I second that. All are simply exquisite, emphasis on "simply."
