Hi all,
I''ve used this website a ton for reference, but never posted. However, I just can''t seem to come to a decision about this...and you guys are the only ones who will understand. My boyfriend and I have been looking for a diamond for a while now, but I''m super, super picky. Finally, I found the asscher of my dreams...2.13/G/VS2 absolutely stunning from GOG. Then, the twist! Out of nowhere, my boyfriend''s dad''s girlfriend offered us her diamond from her ex-husband. (weird, i know) We had it unset and appraised. It''s a 1.3 G/SI2(but eyeclean) pear shape. It''s well cut, and while I would never have picked it myself (I''m an asscher girl), I know this is more about the marriage than the stone, so we''re going to start with this one. Although he has promised me an even bigger asscher for my 30th!! So, now that I''m over the shock and getting over my asscher, I have no idea how to set it. I''ve narrowed it down to a classic tiffany style with baguettes, or a Leon Mege with a one-sided pave band and plain shank. I''m not big on halos, but I''m worried that the baguettes won''t give me the sparkle I need. I also don''t know what kind of wedding band looks best with each. Sooooo confused and I need to make a decision stat. Any thoughts???
