That ring is sooo pretty! Congrats! If you dont mind, what is you ring size? I'm trying to judge how a .86 will look on my hand (size 6) and if yours looks like a .85 thats pretty darn close! Congratulations again! Any proposal story to go along with it?
Oops! I just saw what I was looking for...Congrats again! Colleen

Chilling out with Norah Jones's "come away with me" album while taking photos of the ring to put together in a 6-pic collage that I did tonight after reading caratgirl's comment
![]() Thanks to all for all your well-wishes ![]() Nicrez, Obsessed & PQ: My current skin tone is thanks to, almost, 9 months of swim-teacher training 2 afternoons a week! Imagine getting paid to get a TAN! p.s. Please dont kill me or fight over me, I need to live longer to experience diamond shrinkage and thus achieve my dream of 2-3 cts!!! ![]() PQ: Heehee, if not for the J colour, we'd never have been able to afford a regent in the size I wanted without having to wait till after the middle of this year ![]() Nicrez: The earrings are 0.66tcw, a wedding present 1 1/2 years back, from my wonderful mum bought in a local b&m that didnt rip us of an arm & a leg for it! I hadn't found PS back then and didnt know much about diamonds except that I liked them best when they had the most sparkle, fire, brilliance and caught my eye! It is still uncertified and not appraised but I figured that my eye for sparklies did a very good that day in choosing this particular set of earrings. Maybe one day when I am able to go back to Melbourne, for a holiday or even to live, I'd drop by Cut Nut's store and have them checked out by a pro! ![]() Colleen: No proposal story because this ring is an upgrade to my original e-ring from 5 years back, that has been made into a 3-stone ring. Mara: The confirmation of the purchase was actually cancelled by us in Dec 03 due to financial issues on our part. But we finally worked things out in Feb and I did my part by saving money from Dec for the eventual purchase...! ![]() LadyJ: It does, doesnt it. I'm just gonna tell people who ask that it's a 0.85ct since thats what the expert Rhino-man, Jonathan, says of the spread!!!

Tomatoe, I have to say I have visited this post OVER and OVER just to see the Regent!!! I am SO obsessed...it's just beautiful!!! Oh and when you upgrade you should donate the diamond to a local charity. I am willing to live next door, if that is local enough... ![]() ![]() My earrings are also uncerted, and my guy picked them for their sparkle, so I hear ya! Eventually, my gift to me will be either radiants at 1ct or ACAs in 1ct for my big 30, which means I am saving up NOW... More pictures..I am so greedy!

Nicrez, you're a greedy greedy girl! lol, I will be just as demanding when its your thread. And as for the earrings at 30 yo, a pair of 1/2 ct each sounds very good to me too!
![]() Ironically, I day-dreamed about taking tons of pics and posting them here before I actually got the ring but now I dont seem to have an inclination to take more pictures and only do so when someone requests for them. ![]() Diane, I am still waiting for more pictures of your ring.... guess you must be very busy with your wedding preparations though ![]() Anyway, hope everyone enjoys the latest collage I've put together

tomatoe, those last pictures are my favorites!! Shows of the ring and its beauty on your hand! I LOVE the regent shape! In fact, I have one as well... soon to be given to my soon-to-be fiance. She still has no idea
![]() Can I ask your finger size? I love the proportion of finger to stone size! It looks perfect! |

Openhelix, thanks for your compliments! I have seen your wonderful stone and now your special setting. Your soon to be fiance is a really lucky girl.
![]() My current finger size is a 4 1/4 but the setting is a 4 3/4, which was my then finger size when I ordered it. Shay37 also has a similar stone & finger size.
