Rosy,
Since you are the one with the Tiffany, let me ask you a question....do many people notice that you have a Tiffany?
My friend''s sister has a 1.2 ct. Tiffany (of ideal quality) but I doubt anyone really notices that it is from Tiffany. As far as I am aware of, only one guy told her ''oh that is a Tiffany ring!'' (he was gay, ofcourse). Otherwise, nothing. In his case however, it was a good choice to go with something like Tiffany. They have no problem with money(husband is sergeant), he can a aford a much larger ring form Tiffany''s if he wanted to, without it being any kind of financial burden; he however has a strong belief that an e-ring should not be more than 1ct.
My point is this, get a Tiffany or a Harry Winston because (1) you want to be guaranteed a certain quality of diamond or there is a specific style that they have that no one else carries (e.g. the lucida diamond or or perhaps the hight quality unique setting arrangements Harry Wingston carries)--and (2) most importantly, if you can afford the mark up without sacrificing on the size too much (unless you really don''t mind the smaller size).
I was replying to Kaliedoscope who was asking me a direct question. Hope we''re not hijacking the post!Date: 12/2/2005 1:21:38 AM

Hey Rosy,
Just want to point out that the original poster SeattleSparkle is the female half of her relationship, so not sure your advice is well directed in this case.![]()

Dilemma? Hehe, you can go to all the stores you want and try on rings to your heart''s desire until you find what you want! Not really too much of a dilemma in my book. Go to Tiffany or HW, go to local jewelers, or wherever you plan on going...see what they have to offer, but look online and see what is available as well. I used to think my ering had to be from Tiffany, but then I realized I could get something much nicer & larger for the same amount of money. I haven''t tried on the Legacy stuff, now if I fell in love with that, it may be a problemDate: 12/1/2005 12:27:45 PM

Hmm... good food for thought. I think the dilemma is that I really don''t know what I want or really how to find it without running all around town (by the way, if you have B&M suggestions in Seattle to look at I''m all ears.). I just feel like I''ll really just have to try a bunch on which I just get nervous thinking about!! Budget isn''t really so much an issue ... I think he could probably get a pretty nice ring at any of those designer houses, but I am all about a good deal....
