First up pics of my 1.43ct G SI1 AVC in a modified Julia setting by JbEG. I tried to get it as clean as possible, but of course macro is unkind and shows every piece of fuzz and smudge I couldn't get off the pavillion. It really isn't inclusions you are seeing!

Beautiful pictures! I am trying to decide on a setting right now for my AVC and I am torn between a solitaire and a setting with side stones. Seeing your beautiful pictures is helpful, because it shows me how elegant the stone looks set in a beautiful solitaire. Do you wear a wedding band with this ring?

Just beautiful! Are handshots coming?

I'll go dig some up - I didn't take any yesterday.

Thank you! No I don't wear a band - never have with any of my rings. I love the look of the diamond itself being the center of attention. :bigsmile:

Here let me show you this in contrast (this was a 1.18 L VS1 AVC I had for a while in a Stuller Solstice from GOG with added pave and millgraining)

Beautiful AVC you've got there! How about a few side pics to show off the setting?

Beautiful stones. What do you need both ERs for? One solid one is enough for me. Just wondering.

Well like many ladies here, I love diamonds. And fwiw, neither of these stones are my "original" stone either. I'd never get rid of it! The round was an upgrade for our 5 year, and then for our 10 year I decided I wanted an AVC, but it is from a different vendor than the RB so I couldn't really trade in.

Awesome nails! I love the variety in colors!
Your rings are TO DIE FOR!!! Holy gorgeous! :love: :love: :love:

I totally understand having 2 e-rings. I have a round and a cushion too - and I love them both!

I love the glow of the fluorescence in the round diamond pic. It's a real treat to see pics of a D with SB Fluor.

Your rings are gorgeous and your photos are great. Don't you hate when you see a fuzz on your ring and you can't get it out?

it is a beautiful diamond and great photos you take.
I cannot capture the beauty of my diamond using my camera phone (Samsung Galaxy S2).
Nice and wear it in good health :)

Thank you! I love the fluor - like many I was hesitant at first, but once I saw it I fell in love! The glow it has is just awesome - glad it showed a bit in some of the pics!

You took absolutely great photos of two very beautiful, clear stones. You must be a stickler for keeping them clean (like some of us). They're both lovely, no matter what their size. I especially loved that semi-side view of your AVC. It's a different perspective and we could see that the stone is perfectly clear and clean inside. Fab-u-lous!

*blushes* Thank you!

Yeah I am kind of particular about keeping them clean. Like daily. Or even more often if needed. I'm always looking for fingerprints on the tables!
