#TBT Vatche Grace in Yellow Gold

[VirginiaZee]

Lovely ring, I'm sure it'll look great on her finger. And yes, handshots please once you propose.

I think the ring is perfect as it is! Every cushion halo does not need milgrain and I think that by skipping that you have made her ring more unique. Also after you propose don't mention the milgrain, if she thinks something needs to be changed let her make that decision but don't plant that seed into her mind. I'm certain she will not see a single flaw because that ring is truly stunning and I'm sure in person it looks 1000x better. And as far as white prongs go, don't stress it. My engagement ring has yellow prongs and my diamond looks ridiculously white. Walked into a higher-end jewelry store recently and the sales associate thought it was an F color diamond!

100% agree to all of this. It is gorgeous, period. You did good

Oh gosh, that's pretty.

^Thanks for the advice...we have been shopping around and she wasn't a fan of the no-edge halos. she didn't seem to have a big bias towards the milgrain or no milgrain..she tried on both the tiffany legacy and a forevermark ring with no milgrain, and she really liked the forevermark.

what i did want were white prongs but they said they couldn't do that..

Ah, well that is great! That ring is a lot like the Tiffany Legacy and I do love it! In fact, my wedding band is the Tiffany Legacy! But if she tried on a preferred the ring with no milgrain, it sounds like you made the best choice for her!

Love it!

I love everything about this.

All you attention to detail and what she liked/ didn't like really paid off.

Don't worry about the prongs. Honestly.

(Halos with that kind of metal ribbon border are my absolute favorite too! Your (soon to be) fiance has amazing taste !)

As for the size. Everyone wants a 1 ct. Don't worry if you think its too big!

I prefer non millgrain. I don't see the point. Its an eligant look and the smooth lines make the gold look buttery.

And no do not offer millgraining to her. Why present a present and automatically plant seeds in her head about it. She liked non millgrain leave it at that.

This ring is perfect.

This ring is absolutely GORGEOUS! I am not a yellow gold fan whatsoever normally, but the color of the gold is so rich! I also like the idea of no milgrain. Please come back and post hand shots when she says yes!!!
