New Take on Diamond Ring!
Diamond ring made entirely of diamond!
"Sir Jony Ive, Apple’s Chief Design Officer, and renowned industrial designer Marc Newson – having curated the (RED) auction five years ago – have, this year, designed a unique ring, made exclusively for (RED) by Diamond Foundry®. Consistent with their mutual obsession with transforming raw material into objects of value, Ive & Newson’s design is singular, clear and un-compromised by the traditional metal settings and bands that have previously been required to create ‘diamond rings’. Theirs will be created by removing material rather than adding – an ambition made possible by the extraordinary scale of the stone which will enable the ring to be completely made of this material.
Creating a ring-shaped diamond is no small feat; the diamond block will be faceted with several thousand facets, some of which are as small as several hundred micrometers. The interior ring will be cylindrically cut out for the desired smoothness using a micrometer thick water jet inside which a laser beam is cast. The finished ring will have between 2000-3000 facets which has never been seen before on a single piece.
The gemstone will be created by Diamond Foundry®, the certified carbon neutral diamond producer who has pioneered and developed the proprietary technology to form diamonds safely and sustainably."

Or anything else you can come up with as a way to get a practically free rock.
Rock people are very creative when it comes to wheeling and dealing.
We are normally slow and cranky.As you can imagine,we are even slower and crankier when we are having a sale and have to fill a bunch of orders after getting home from a long day at our "real" jobs.
20% off is a great discount, fast, friendly service is not part of that deal.
Whatever.You want the rock or not?
Oh and sometimes we forget to mark rocks sold.We are not keeping it from you just to be mean.
We are not keeping it for our personal rock stash.(well.. okay, maybe sometimes)
But usually...we would love to sell it to you.Someone got it before you...get over it.
Happy Holidays!
