Heirloom OEC

[Efe]

Wanted to share my new ring. Center stone has been in my husband''s family for over 100 years. It is a .99 (originally was 1.00 but has several chips from normal wear over the years). Color is J, clarity SI1 (appraisal says chips affect clarity grade slightly). Side stones .25 marquise shape, VS1 - VS2, Color G-H. Had the ring made to match my mother''s wedding band which she designed and had made in the diamond district over 60 years ago. Will try to attach picture of wedding band.

Here is a picture of the set.

What a stunning set!!

And how great that that diamond has been in your family for so long!

But I''ve gotta say - what mainly blew me away was your mother''s wedding ring design, it''s GORGEOUS!!

 

[FacetFire]

Oh...I LOVE it!!!! The marquise really set it off and make the center stone stand out! I''m such a sucker for OECs too...

 

[mrssalvo]

oh wow, gorgeous, gorgeous heirloom ring...I just love it.....

 

[FireGoddess]

Stunning! That heirloom stone is a beauty and I simply love the marquise sidestones in the engagement ring. I adore the bands that go with it. I have one similar in design, I love it so much!!

 

[Efe]

Thank you everyone. I have such fond memories of my mom wearing the wedding band. I love having it knowing that it is such a reflection of her personality. It makes me happy and makes me miss her just a little bit less. I also really like that the set combines both of our family histories.

Beautiful! What a lovely heirloom, hopefully it will stay in the family for another 100 years.
