Haven, so glad you chimed in! ;) I know you were upset about me selling the original Burk....I'm so glad you like the new one. I'm loving it and while there were times along the process I regretted selling the OEC and setting (when I was e-ringless for 5 weeks!) but I am so happy I did it! Old stones have so many personalities and so much life. It's so fun "getting to know" this new stone. I'm sure you can relate. :)

Yssie, Thank you!! It does have so much charm. Love that about it!

Christina, thanks so much for the ring compliment and the finger compliment! :D

Kalrik, thanks!! Weird you mention it getting noticed because it hasn't at all. Not sure if it's because I had a fairly large e-ring before and people around me don't notice a difference (even though it's a pretty big difference). I've only had it a few days so who knows. :praise:

luv2sparkle, thank you! I am really loving it and find myself staring at my finger a lot. Not so safe when driving... he he.

I am sure they do notice and admire but the majority of people probably wouldn't say anything if just passing by. I probably wouldn't but definitely would admire. Enjoy your new stone.

What a beautiful stone and setting!! They're breathtaking together and I love the bands you wear with them, especially the bezel set one.

It is such a lovely stone. If you don't mind me asking was OWD very negotiable with you on pricing? I ask because I am looking at one of their stones.

Kalrik, I think you're right. Thanks!

omc111, Thank you! The bezel is my original wedding band so it holds a dear place in my heart.

bright ice, Thank you! OWD did not negotiate at all with me on pricing. The listed price on this stone was fair, though, according to my research so we went with it. I would certainly try to negotiate if I were you though! What's the worse that could happen? ;) Good luck!

Thank you junebug17!

vip0802, thank you! I would be lying if I said I didn't question selling the OEC a couple times. But I think it all worked out in the end. :)

*Twinkle*twinkle*, Thanks! I'm happy to hear others have thought about something similar before...at first I thought Erica might think I"m crazy. :)

Thank you pregcurious, LvMyOMC, SC86 and Amys Bling.

I've found I only like to wear it stacked...so happy this is the case since the bezel band is my original wedding band!! Got my first compliment on it today from a co-worker...said she noticed it sparkling from across the hall. Yay! :)

I love your new set Burk! How do you feel about the size? Are you used to it yet?


Re: Burk's upgrade 2.8ct OMC in JBEG

warmdiamondlove, thanks!

renogirl, thank you!

MrsBettyBoop, thank you! The size is perfect I think. My previous e-ring was set in a way that took up similar finger space so it doesn't feel all that different. I'm loving it.

Am loving the OMC, ahhhh, if I knew what I know now, I would have gone the OMC route many years ago for my e-ring. Beautiful

Ellonwy, thanks! I hope to get more stackers so I can play around with different combos! :)

Tacori, thanks lady!

D2B, thank you! Love the old cuts!!
