So beautiful! :love: I really prefer the graduation in a 5 stone band, and the 5-4-3mm is very nice!

(Did you know my new granddaughter's name is Claire? :)) )

Thanks! I feel a little bit satiated!!!

Which teams are you seeing? DH is watching Boston and Ottawa at the moment. 1:0 Ottawa at start of period 2.

My husband is from the Philadelphia area and is a Flyers fan. My parents and I bought him a pair of tickets to see them play the Sharks for Christmas (we actually bought another PSers season tickets for that one game! Ah, the power of PS). I don't know much about hockey but the game didnt get quite interesting in the last period.

Re: Two Carat Graduated Five Stone Ring with Antique Diamond

THANK YOU for all of the kind words. I really love this piece! I was so excited to put it on again this morning. This time I have it paired with my BGD micropave band, which is also 18 kt white gold (but the rhodium plating has been polished off over the last year and a half so it matches the alloy of my 5 stone nicely). I love the collection of old and new, not to mention the blinginess of it!

DS- I remember when you told us about her name! I used to hate being Claire and then I started school and everyone was Meghan, Amy, Sarah, Stephanie, and Elizabeth. I like those names, too, but it was nice to be fairly unique. Oddly, my first school friend is also named Claire (birthday just 2 days from mine!) but after that I didn't encounter another Claire in my schooling. When it comes to naming my own future children I am definitely drawn to classic and borderline "old fashioned" names for girls.

A few more pictures!

Macros shots of the stones with and without flash. You can see the inclusion on the center stone in these. Its like a little furry buddy in there, centered right over the culet. Unfortunately it reflects around the stone quite a bit but its such a lively stone that I find myself not caring.

Last one for now. I am looking forward to doing some beauty shots and some in the sun. It's raining today and tomorrow and I need to send it off to be resized though since I stupidly didn't consider it all the way through before I asked for it to be what it is. Ooops!

So, sun shots will come when I get it back!

Thanks again everyone! :wavey:

Thank you!

Patient, or I have a husband who doens't favor a lot of bling expenses so I save up my fun money over the course of a long period to buy something! :cheeky:

And THAT's how a trellis setting should look! Drool.

Your ring is just beautiful. You're lucky I live far away, so I can't take it off your hands..
