This is one of my favs. Has the characteristic pale blue. Also has brown matrix of Dry Creek with a pale blue (water mark?) matrix throughout. The brown is slightly lighter in natural light than in the pic.
The stone has some undulations which I assume was meant to maximize stone and provide some beautiful dimension.
Love the metalwork on this one as well. Clean, simple, yet elegant.
My opinion is far from expert, but it does look like Dry Creek to me. Itβs a beautiful ring. I have one that I was told was Dry Creek as well, but it has more blue than yours. It looks more like Number 8 to me, but Iβm not very good at identifying stones. What do you think?
I agree with you @Mel42, the ring posted by @Michael-CA certainly has that Dry Creek appearance. And yours, with that matrix and color, my initial thought was also no. 8.
