Congratulations and happy ring shopping!

Congratulations! That''s brilliant news! Cannot wait to see which ring you get.

Thanks! Me too! I think I have decided that I want a RB in a delicate cushion halo with a small round on each side and then very small rounds on the band. I saw one today that I loved, but it was maybe just a little too delicate for my taste. It might have been a Ritani............

I forgot to ask because I was in a hurry. I will have to check on that.

Venice?!?! That is so cool.. I can''t imagine anything more romantic than a wedding in Italy

Congrats!

Thanks again everyone. I am still frantically trying to find my diamond! Harder than I thought......there aren''t very many that meet my specs. I''ll be glad when I can finally start working on the setting!

Oooh, I see that you''ve decided on a round! What are your specs? I would love to help you look!

You are all sooooo nice! Good news! I finally picked a diamond!

I ended up buying locally since the search was taking a while and my fiance was getting impatient! I can''t wait to see the finished ring

. I decided on an eternity style ering and wedding ring. They are being custom made for my RB diamond.........a gorgeous 2.7 ct I SI1 that is perfectly eyeclean! The cut is amazing! I never thought I could be happy with an I color, but I tried to distinguish it from H and G and couldn''t (usually I can). I guess that answers the question about how much cut can improve color in a RB!

Amazingly, my jeweler gave a great price (knew I was researching/shopping online). So, I decided it would be great to have someone locally to work with when needed for maintenance, etc. Hopefully, if all goes well, I will have that beauty within a month!

I had been planning a halo setting (with a smaller diamond), but once I picked out this diamond I just had to let it "pop" from the eternity band. I can''t wait!!!

wow 2.7ct?! i can''t wait to see pictures of the finished ring, it sounds stunning!

 

[SparklyLibra]

Congratulations! Your ring sounds like a winner already!
