This is over your budget, I know, and I'm now on the quest for something in that price range, but I was saving this for next month and since @prettywootprincess asked I decided to post it early.

14k White Gold Aquamarine (1-1/10 ct. t.w.) and Diamond Accent Ring for $550.00: http://deals.woot.com/deals/details/aef37e13-0e13-46ef-bf1a-fb663d9e16b6/14k-white-gold-aquamarine-1-1-10-ct-t-w-and-diamond-accent-ring

In the right direction with the jtv.com one however I would LOVE if we found one with a filigree design.

man I can't wait for May to see what he posts for me.

there are a few here http://jewelry.hsn.com/gemstones-aquamarine_c-j_a-4143-4405_xc.aspx?prev=hp!4405&rdr=1&sourceid=googlegeneral&cm_mmc=Paid%20Search%20General-_-Google-_-Jewelry-_-aquamarine%20ring&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_term=aquamarine%20ring&utm_campaign=Jewelry but are a very mixed bag of gold or sterling. No where near as nice at those that @catberthegreat has found.

And this one so VERY, VERY similar to one my husband gave me. It's a bit over the $300 bar. It's a real sparkler too http://www.amazon.com/2-25Ct-Oval-Aquamarine-Diamond-White/dp/B002Q28C5A/ref=pd_sbs_jw_3 If you look further down the page, there are several more to select from in a varying price range.

@prettywootprincess: Your going to make this hard. Filigree is a tad subjective when it comes to people saying if something is filigree or not.

This holds a similarity to the JTV ring but it is diffrent:

This one is Celtic!

@catbertthegreat: Oooo - 3917541 the last one is sooo nice. I love it in gold, and being a JULY baby, I know the setting would look wonderful with a RUBY because RUBIES are the BIRTHSTONE for JULY babies.

@catbertthegreat: Love the Celtic Design!!!!!!

@catbertthegreat: although you should see the diamond and platinum ring I wear every day. 2 rows of diamonds set in platinum. I love the ring, it was my grans.

Thanks for this. I need to get my Fiancee something more than just an engagement bracelet. I need to find other jewelry for her. She likes pink.

vote-for5vote-against

Wow, @lissadelsol, @lavikinga and of course @catbertthegreat you guys have such great choices. I will post my finds I have tomorrow and you have to tell me what you think. I know this is a lost cause because... dammit i will finish tomorrow.

@sgoman5674: First off, would you like some help?

Details man, details. Budget, birth month, necklaces, earrings, rings. What are you searching for? Something simple but unique she can wear around quite often, or something kind of showy for a special occasion? Do you want a matching set(earrings and necklace, maybe ring [many sets come sans ring])? Also do you want to shop online or locally? Locally limits me severely or completely if you aren't near a massive major city.

Pink Gemstones:
Pink Diamonds
Pink Sapphires
Queen Conch Pearls
Pink Topaz
Pink Tourmaline
Kunzite
Pink Cubic Zirconia

I'll start you off with something I've already posted:
Tiffany & Co. Heart pendant with pink sapphires and diamonds in platinum for $1,800.00 - http://deals.woot.com/deals/details/62a31c48-31ed-4e0e-959d-e51bc9f8c8ef/tiffany-co-heart-pendant-with-pink-sapphires-and-diamonds-in-platinum

Hmmmm, I went hunting for rings that are specifically filigree and found a few more, most of which are around $300 but slightly over (like, less than $100 over):

This one is not oval cut, but is pretty stunning in my humble opinion: http://donnatsjewelry.com/product_info.php?products_id=4038

And this one I just had to list, it doesn't have diamonds but comes from Etsy, which is a soft spot for me:
http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=29610331

And that's all I have, but thanks for letting me indulge my jewelry obsession for a little while!

vote-for4vote-against

@lissadelsol: The last two are pretty, but the one from donnats is just stunning. I love all the little intricate metal work in it, really takes filigree to another level. I think you should post that one as a deal.

this is a great site, I've got it bookmarked now. turned up all kinds of lovely rings.

@catbertthegreat: Ok so her birthstone is Peridot (born in August), I am looking for earrings and necklace set as she really only wears only wears one pair of earrings and usually no necklace.

Her favorite color as I said is pink, but she looks good in Purple and Blue. Her hair is dark brown and medium length. She has a fair complexion.

I don't think she cares about what metal is used.

My only restriction on price is below $1000.

Here is a great site for ring necklaces watches all that stuff!!!!!

BIDZ.COM!!!!!

For all you folks posting these things, remember that Ms Princess said to post them as DEALS, and then report back. Posting links to your favorite site is not quite in the spirit of Deals. Besides, I'm now holding my breath until @catbertthegreat posts a Peridot deal.

Earrings. Peridot earrings would be wonderful.

@shrdlu: I love how we have all worked in to our posts which months we are waiting for. Did you get that @catbertthegreat?

vote-for3vote-against

@hobbit: I'm not really waiting for any month specifically as much as just waiting to see what's next.

vote-for4vote-against

For all the folks who are waiting for me to post the birthstone jewelry for their month, I'm trying to post the jewelry in correspondence with the current month. That is why I posted all the amethyst this month, aquamarine is next month, etc. Except opal, there is an opal I've been dying to post.

@sgoman5674: I'm off into the tubes, I'll post back in a little while.

Only $300...I though the engagement ring would cost more!

@wootvan: It's NOT an engagement ring. It's a maybe if someone loved me they would buy me a pretty ring, ring

@prettywootprincess: Don't wait on love! Buy it for yourself!

@prettywootprincess: Yep i already wooted those rings :D. I think @wootvan was thinking he could get off cheap with an engagement ring this time.

I'm partial to these, but mostly because they fit my aesthetic- definitely pink, but not screaming it. And lots of shiny. LOTS of shiny.

I'm still looking though- pinks purples and blues under $1000.

@lissadelsol: You are right, of course. Thank you. :-D

I just have to say thank you. I know where to direct DH for birthday hints for me now.

@catbertthegreat: I love opals. Was that the unset stone you posted? It is gorgeous. I have some lovely opal earrings that have lost their fire and I am told that they have dried out and that there is no way to get the fire back. Sad..

@flyinggirl: we like to post jewelry here there are a lot of girls on here and @catbertthegreat loves finding pretty shiny rings for us, he knows how to keep us happy.

vote-for2vote-against

Ok I love opals as well, but it might be my Greek/Italian superstitious background. Have ya'll herd that its bad luck to wear opal if its not your birthstone?

vote-for3vote-against

@prettywootprincess: I have never heard that wearing opals is bad luck, no. In addition, I have worn opals, and think they are one of those beautiful things in life that make getting up in the morning seem worthwhile (before coffee, even). The only bad luck involved is that there are many lesser stones being marketed as opal, so extra caution is required in purchasing them.

vote-for3vote-against

Add me to the list of people who love opals. The only way you could have bad luck with an opal, is if you lose it!

vote-for2vote-against

@prettywootprincess: I've heard it's bad luck to buy it for yourself if it's not your birthstone, but it's okay to wear if it was gifted.

vote-for2vote-against

Good to know. So now who's gunna buy me something opal? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

Oh and don't worry I still want the aquamarine and diamond ring.
