I am soooooo excited!

I had worked through WhiteFlash to set my BB round cut Aqua in the Vatche swan setting with modified shanks. Vatche himself customized for me. The ring arrived at WF today and all I have are some pictures. Can''t wait to see the ring but it will probably be another week as I am waiting for WF to finish my other ring.

Here are some teaser pictures WF took - what do you think?

The aqua is 10mm. I asked for hand shots - will it look too big?

You must be so very pleased. I think 10mm is a lovely size. Barry does an exquisite job and this stone is a wonderful blue.

Really looking forward to your own pictures.

Wow! The Swan is one of my most favourite settings - especially for a lovely blue-ish stone, and I have never seen it with such a large stone before and always wondered what it would look like - it is absolutely beautiful!

The only thing I can say about that ring is that it pisses me off that it''s not on my girlfriend''s finger.

That''s f---ing gorgeous.

Thanks everyone for your kind words!

I fell in love with the swan since I saw my friend''s e-ring, which I helped her to put together. I was not sure about the swan for the aqua though, due to the aqua''s size. WF staff encouraged me to go with it and I am so glad that I did! The original design has a more delicate looking shank with two rows of smaller diamonds on each shank, I requested to change it to one row of larger diamonds so it is more proportional with the center stone.

I promise lots of pictures when I get the ring, and hopefully PS 2 is up by then - if we will ever get it that is.

I think it''s stunning and there''s no such thing ''round these parts unless you''re talking paperweight size. The color is fantastic!

Not to threadjack, but what''s the deal with PS 2? I don''t understand what happened to the update.

I hate to be tacky, but was it more or less than $1200? My guess is $2400?

Lovely setting for your aqua; it looks such a sweet blue against the red rose. And as for size, it never seems big enough once you’ve worn it a couple of times.
