LFVDoll, Thanks for your reply. Congrats on your engagement!! Your ring is stunning, especially on your finger!! It''s definitely moved my mental-meter a notch towards the cushion side! This is going to be a tough decision!! As for the Beverly K band, I probably won''t be wearing it with my new set.... |

Hi GoodSoul! I hope you''re enjoying your Leon as much as I am!! The new ring will be worn as part of my wedding set. I plan to reset my other stone but can''t decide between a 3-stone ring with pear sidestones (similar to frankiextah''s) or a cushion shaped halo with a split shank (similar to rhea ... |

Hi Chris380, Congrats on your soon-to-be-Leon!! You must be so excited! My style 401 solitaire can be safely worn with the matching band. The platinum does extend beyond the melee just a smidge. It''s so minimal that I need a loupe to see it. But I think it''s enough that the diamonds on the shank a... |

Thank you all so much for your enthusiasm!! Believe you me there will be loads of pictures coming!! I'm trying to take some right now but am having a difficult time without sunlight (it's nighttime here in Asia). I'll give it another go tomorrow! But I did manage to crank this one out... |

Introducing my new Leon...
It''s been a long search but like they say, good things come to those who wait!! I went for the 3.29 ct H VS2 that I was deliberating over (for those of you who read my previous threads) and it was love at first sight!! As much as I love the stone, I must admit, it''s the setting that really took my... |

I have another question and it''s regarding the Sarin report. The numbers are just slightly different from the GIA certificate (GIA rounded off a couple of numbers) but enough that it changes the HCA score and the grade from Excellent to Very Good. Which set of numbers is more ''accurate''? The Sari... |

I just notice that the arrow (in black) at the 9 o''clock spot is slightly shorter than the others. Do you think that''s a problem? Or do you think it''s just the angle of the stone? |

What do you think of this 3.3ct RB? Need help analyzing images.
Hi everyone, Thanks for your feedback on my other two threads regarding the color (H) and size (3.3ct) of this stone. With your reassurance and a visit to a jewelry store to see an H color stone, I think I''m comfortable with it. As for the size, I have to admit that the difference between a 3.3ct a... |

2.5ct vs 3.3ct RB...how noticeable is the size difference?
Hi everyone, I''ve been looking for a RB that''s about 3.5 carats and have finally come across one but it''s 3.3 carats (9.51-9.59). I already have a 2.5 carat RB (8.75-8.80 mm). Do you think the size difference is noticeable enough to make it worth getting the 3.3 or should I hold out for something... |

Hi everyone, Thanks for your input! Based on the H stone I''ve seen, unless I put it next to a D or E stone, I didn''t really notice any yellow. But that''s just one look in very particular lighting so I wanted to hear your ''real life'' experience of seeing it daily in various lighting. I''m leanin... |

Calling all H color stone owners...do you see any yellow?
Hi everyone, I''ve been searching for nearly a year for a 3+ carat RB and was hoping to find one in the D-F range. But a stone has come up that appears to be extremely well cut BUT it''s a H color stone. Should I consider it? Do you think I''ll notice any yellow once the stone is set. So far all the... |
