First, we had Marion Cotillard's wing shaped ring from Chopard
Then, Angelina Jolie's Rock of Gibraltar sized emerald ring by Lorraine Schwartz
LWL adds this ring to the mix, The "Marie Antoinette" amethyst and tsavorite ring by the irrepressible jewelry designer, fashionista and blogger Wendy B. A serious statement it is....especially the Versailles sized price of $12,500.
I'd like to add my pick for a Statement Ring.
Vintage Estate Tourmaline and Yellow Sapphire bombé style ring in 18K from Beladora.comPriced....a very reasonable $1500
Here are the details: 
Note the attention to detail on the inside of the ring with the gold openwork in a heart design, highlighted by a diamond pavé heart in the center.
Most definitely Red Carpet worthy.

Great googly moogly, that's a gorgeous piece! $1500, seriously?? What size is it?
(Heh, word verification is 'affor')
Pseu...it's your size of course!
$12,500 is nothing! You see what Sevan rings go for? There was one in the NYT for $57K. I was like, yay! I'm a bargain.
Wendy, your ring is priced correctly for a brand new designer piece at retail.
Beladora is estate so the prices reflect that the jewelry is pre-owned. Also, because Beladora isn't a retail store, expenses are kept low and that reflects in lower prices.
And who's buying $57K Sevan rings anyway. If I had that much to spend I'd be buying VCA or Cartier Art Deco.

I know, I was just teasing you! Sorry. I think Sevan work is beautiful, but I'm with you -- $57K seems too much, even for a one of a kind. I'm trying to remember if there was a very large diamond in it, but I can't -- all I remember is thinking, "Ooh, maybe I'll pick up some bargain hunters!"
