Hi everyone!

I''ve been meaning to post some pictures of this ring since I joined.
9.gif
It''s technically my mother''s ring, but she has let me "borrow" it for the past few years (Nice mom! Actually, can you believe she doesn''t really like diamonds that much?!?). I don''t know much about the cut, but it is a gorgeous ring that throws off a ton of sparkles in all kinds of lighting.

Stats-(no cert.-from an independent appraiser, and I don''t know all the info off-hand)

2.14 round brilliant center
.25 ctw baguettes (I think...)
I color
I-1 clarity (he did say it was a really good one, close to SI 2)
platinum setting made by a family friend

without further ado, the pics!!! (nowhere near as clear as some other peoples''-I still don''t know how they do it!

You have to love a good I1! Great pics and that diamond looks much bigger than 2.14 on you! Do you have tiny fingers????

Beautiful ring! It reminds me of one a friend of mine owns, that I always admire.

Thank you Lorelei, WT, OF girl, Sundial, MB, Tacori, Kaleigh, and FG for your nice comments!

I will definitely pass them along to mom.

Lorelei-the ring itself is kind of big on me. I know I''m going to get it for this (I read the jewelry pet peeve thread
3.gif
), but I wear it on my middle finger. hehe My fingers are long and it''s the only ring I wear on that hand, though, so I think it looks okay. Besides, I really don''t want to ward of the guys wearing that on my ring finger!

(I''m still single) BTW-My ring finger in the pics is 5 3/4.

As for the setting-I do really love it. I love that classic HW round with baguettes look. It was set in YG as a solitaite at one time, though, which I think mom preferred-and it did look bigger. Oh well, plenty big now!

Thanks again,
Lisa

That is a beautiful and classic ring. I would never have guessed I1 for the clarity. It''s beautiful on your hand too. Thank you for sharing.

The round and baguette setting is so classic! I was thinking that for my setting when I first began my e-ring hunt last year. I know what you mean about mom not loving diamonds, same with my mom.

My fiance and I bought her a 3 stone diamond ring for her 25th anniversary this year and all she does with it is keep it in her safety deposit box! What a waste! Poor ring, doesn''t even get a chance to bling!
