I must not have sent my comment the first time. Anyway, I particularly like her 4 prong pearl settings. Go visit her website.
Show me your pearl ring-bling!

Yay, thanks, Wendy, I particularly like your squiggles and sprinkles collection:
Pattye, I can't wait too see yours too. Am gleeful like a child
Others? More?

I love the way you arranged them for the photos! I hope they fit again, soon!

I like!!! You could have fooled me with that black sfwp studded with multi gems; from here it could have passed for a tahitian.
Oh thank you, Pattye, I love the mabe ring. If I had it, I'd be caressing the pearl the whole darn day. It can function as quite the mirror.
Like what Caitlin says, hope you are able to wear them soon and hope the photos will give you some pleasure.

vintage pearl rings from ebay
vintage pearl rings from ebay
I'm super excited. After weeks of waiting, my ebay deals have finally arrived! Allow me to share my buys with you.
For those who 'know' me, I have a penchant for organic and/ or botanical designs (explains the shop name). So when I saw this, I debated and debated ... and succumbed.
Two twin grey and white baroque pearls in a 14k bypass design sprouting diamond studded textured leaves. Vintage, possibly, 60s. I'm thinking of removing the white (it's sloppily glued!?!) and replacing it with the plum SoC pearl. You think?

What a lovely ring Adeline! You have a good eye.
The two pearls contrast quite nicely, so if you replace one, there should still be a contrast I think.
A SoC plum pearl (purplish?) would be amazing. The grey one here seems to have a hint of nice colours. It almost looks SoC, doesn't it?
Enjoy your new ring.

I agree - a purple SoC would complement the grey beautifully. Right now the white pearl just seems to wash out the colors on the grey, rather than enhancing its color and allure.
Katbran, I have a cure for the shakes from Ebay withdrawal... It's called "etsy".... Lol.

Too funny, you guys!
I loved your CFW white pearl in seaweed, and gold lipped MOP, and green amethyst the best, best, best Pattye!
Wendy, how do you get your hammered(?) gold to glow like that? Stunning! Oh wait, maybe it's SS with the goldish pearl...
Adeline your botanicals are super cool!

Thank you, all. What's stopping me from wearing it right now is the fact that the white pearl is GLUED on and sloppily too. Why or why do people mar these items like that? And there was no admission on the seller's part on that. Other than that it is a lovely ring with some heft so I'm happy. Now to get the SoC in to this design.

Why thank you, Blaire. However, there's another vintage tahitian ring that might need some concurrence from the experts; it's quite a mystery to me. I'll go grab some pics.

I still don't have any ring bling - but I did come across a couple of my seed pearl rings when I was looking for pictures of the ones that might be coral. The pictures are all from the original eBay listing, but I do have the rings.
Suposedly pink sapphire and seed pearls (I have only checked the gold so far):
This beauty is TINY - ring size too. I can squeeze it on my pinky but hesitate to wear it as the gold ornaments on the side tend to get caught in my clothes and pulled out of shape.
Victorian amethyst, cirtrin and seed pearls (not my hand). Unfortunately one of the pearls feel out, so it's just lying there
Any recommendations for repair in Portland, OR og around San Francisco appriciated. I could get it done this summer. I wonder if Sarah could... I should ask her.

Lovely, lovely, Karin. You had me cooing at every picture. Danielle from Gem Gossip is going to love these. She's very much into antique jewellery like yours. You had me at the cameo ring with the wire strung pearls, it's a charmer. I've long admired such cameo/ coral rings but I think my brusque ways will surely mean the end of the seed pearls and ring. Lol!

Wow... what beautiful rings. I don't have any rings to share with you. I never even considered a ring but I may be changing my mind. Thanks for showing us your treasures.
