You actually say "no" when a friend or family member asks you to try it on. I so can''t imagine saying that to anyone! |

The bezel isn''t too heavy. In fact, it''s beautiful. It''s quite simply a bezel that knows it''s a bezel. Not everyone''s cup of tea, necessarily, but for what it''s worth, I think it couldn''t be more perfect. I have a pair of bezel studs that have a really thin bezel, and sometimes I wonder what ... |

What a beautiful ring. It''s stunning from a design perspective. Did GOG make the mounting, too? If so, I didn''t know that they were doing custom work now (they didn''t when I was shopping for a ring). |

Okay, if you weren't Canadian, I might vote for the pink pear because it's different, I love pears, and I love pink. But I'm trying to picture you wearing that honker around. I mean, I've just never seen anything that large on a Canadian finger (the stone is big to begin with, and t... |

The better your diamond is cut, the less covering up the bottom of it will matter. Leaky diamonds (ones that need the extra help of light coming in the bottom) apparently don't do quite as well in bezels. I have a pair of beautifully cut small diamonds that are set into full bezels, and I... |

Orange, MIL''s can be difficult (speaking from experience). Stand your ground and always help the fiance see it through your eyes. Things work out much better when you''re a united front. Congratulations not only on your engagement, but also on achieving diplomacy! |

I don't watch the new Degrassi, mostly because I watch very few T.V. shows these days, but I agree that the old school Degrassi rocked! If the new one is anywhere as good as the old one, then I wouldn't worry about your "Degrassi-itis" too much. Daniela |

Definitely the second one. I just love the trapezoids! I''d give my right arm to have one just like it. Then again, if I gave my right arm, where would I wear my new ring?

That first one was the eternity style (goes all the way around). This next one is a shared prong diamond wedding band with the stones just on top. |

Princess cuts have the potential to show their colour more than rounds, so I don't think that you did a bad thing going with "E" colour necessarily. I don't know if I would go down to "H" or not in a Princess. The very clean SI-1 is also harder to find than you might think, especially if you have ea... |
