AVR Meets AVC - GOG Prototype Inside

[Andelain]

I finally have permission to spill the beans...

A while back Jon created an August Vintage Cushion with the optics of an August Vintage Round. So far as I know, the prototype is the only one is existence. The fine folks at GOG can correct me if I'm wrong. The stone floored me from the moment I saw it, I pestered Jon with emails about it, and he offered it up. Needless to say, my checkbook FLEW out of my purse. If you could see the email I sent back once I got it you'd be laughing....

So here's the good pics of it.....


















I've had it about a year, finally got it mounted. Here's a crappy pic of it in it's home, I'll get more later, if there's any demand.

Omg. THAT IS WHAT I WANT. almost kinda looks tranny, with those fat wannabe arrows. I'm going to YouTube right away.

Wait, I don't see any on their website!! I thought that since you were allowed to share there are a lot more available now. Is GOG going to start cutting these???? Please say yes!!

Unfortunately I think they aren't, and mine is the only one. I'd sure love to see more, but my bank account would suffer if they did.

Andelain, can you please somehow post a video? What are the specs? Omg it is so beautiful....

 

[Sphene]

Magnificent diamond - I would have wanted a more open mount to show off those beautiful facets

 

[EvangelineG]

Oh wow! This is fantastic!

 

[tyty333]

Love, love, love it!

I'm going to shake my head at your setting...you have it stuck so far down there we can see the lovely shape! (I know you
probably can though ) Does it have a thin girdle?

 

[LLJsmom]

Good news girls!!

Not right now but I hope to see a video and don't be upset if you aren't the only one with one of these beauties Andelain!!

 

[GeorgieQ]

Ok so this sounds promising! LLJsmom does this mean GOG are going to be doing more than a one off?
I LOVE this cushion and would certainly hope GOG decide to add it to their August Vintage family........fingers crossed

 

[Andelain]

Cool, we need a lot more of these. I'll have to ask Jon if it's OK to post the video.

 

[JaneSmith]

Flower facet pattern on pillowy cushion shape? Perfection. I need one.
