#JOTW GOG AVC five stone band

[Rosebloom]

For my recent ten year anniversary, I received a beautiful 1.43ctw GOG AVC five stone band in a platinum Vatche trellis setting. The diamonds are all K VS2 and either .28 or .29 ct each. They measure approximately 3.9 x 3.8 mm. The ring is a size 7.25 (which is usually a touch large except in this crazy heat!).

I adore this ring!! I have read so much about AVC’s (probably every word written on the topic on PS!) but they are even more beautiful in person than I expected! And even in this small size I am definitely able to appreciate the beautiful faceting and amazing light and color display. It’s mesmerizing.

On to the pictures! Many, many, many pictures.

Here is a picture of the diamonds from GOG and one next to a dime for perspective. So cute and petite!

HOLY MOLY!!! Those pics are all AMAZINGLY BLINGTASTICAL!!! (yeah... its a real word... what up???) OH MY GAWD, Rosebloom - you are killing me - that's awesome!!! I love the sapphire and the AVC band together --- YUMMY!!

LOVE the fire shots!!! I could look at those all day ... add them to the fire thread!! (under SMTB)

My original plan had been to eventually pair this with a large AVC or antique cushion solitaire, but I love this so much I’m seriously considering wearing this as a stand alone e-ring (and wearing my sapphire as a RHR). If I were to go this route though I think I would want to upgrade the size of the stones so they have a little more impact. I am very sentimental about jewelry my husband gives me (even pieces like this that I completely pick out and order myself!). So if I am going to "amp up" the stones a bit, I want to do it very soon before I’m too attached to these beauties to let them go! If I do go with a larger size band I’ll make sure to post pictures of it too. And in the meantime, I’ll be saving my pennies!

By this time in the photoshoot, my son had lost interest in this game and really wanted me to play with his alphabet puzzle. This was our compromise:

Finally, a real life perspective shot as I often see it!

"That's right, little man, BLING is everyone's favourite word!!! Learn it well, my son!!"

Wow, beautiful!
Wear in health and blingtastical (to quote Enerchi) happiness!

 

[minmin001]

it's realllllly gorgeous!

 

[Rosebloom]

BLINGTASTICAL is my new favorite word! Thank you, Enerchi! As you can tell, I had loads of fun with this one. And I think as a mom to boys it is my duty to educate them in the wonderful world of sparkles. Their future wives/partners/cats/whatever will thank me one day!

And thank you Missy and Minmin001! You both have such adorable cats!

[Enerchi]

blingtastical - ok I lied.... Its not really a word! But it's the best description of your ring!!

BLINGTASTICAL is my new favorite word! Thank you, Enerchi! As you can tell, I had loads of fun with this one. And I think as a mom to boys it is my duty to educate them in the wonderful world of sparkles. Their future wives/partners/cats/whatever will thank me one day!

It's your civic duty to the future generation
