Margeaux 2.0 (4.0 GIA K VS2 Antique Cushion Cut) by JbG

[madelise]

I'm a bad PS-er. I've had Margeaux in production over a year ago, and have had her for months and am only now typing up this thread after meeting with a local-ish PSer for a transaction, and realizing I never posted!

Margeaux used to belong to my blingy soul sister and dear friend Resonance.of.Life. I'm keeping her name, well, cus it fits her nicely and I like knowing she existed before being mine.

Stats:
Carat weight: 4.0 carats
Measurements: 9.37 x 9.29x 6.53 mm (weird, on EGL, it was 10x10 exactly, so I wonder what they're measuring!)
Color: K
Clarity: VS1
Depth: 70.3%
Table: 48%
Culet: Medium
Fluorescence: none


Margeaux has the perfect 1:1 ratio pillow-y cushion outline that makes me swoon.

Setting was by Jewels by Grace. She, like always, is the sweetest and funniest person ever, and the best person to work with. I mentioned here on PS years and years ago that it was her who showed me antique diamonds in real life, and her who sparked my love for antiques. ITS ALL YOUR FAULT, GRAVE! Jeez, this was... 5 years ago? My, time has flown.

Thanks ya'll. I really do feel regal when I wear her. Now that I'm no longer in grad school, I've been wearing my jewelry again at least 3-4x a week. I was starting to miss all my pieces.
