I''ve always wanted a yellow diamond ring, but never considered buying one because of the cost. Well, it''s happened none the less. I came across this stone (about .5 carat) from a second hand vendor. The pictures weren''t very good so I asked for more. It is moderately included but has a very pretty cut, color, and sparkle despite that. I was able to get it at a very good price. I had it tucked into my jewelry box for a couple of months when a friend posted that she had a white gold pave halo ring she was considering selling. She initially had a white diamond set in it and it just wasn''t floating her boat. I bought the setting from her and had my jeweler set the yellow diamond, and this is the result. I love it! It''s just what I wanted.

I really do like the profile! Your setting is beautiful!!

It is hard for me to understand why your friend was not all that into this setting, of course, that is not what is up for debate now.

Thanks everyone, so much! It is such a delicate little beauty! Now I''d just like to find a thin curved band to go with it when I want to wear it on my left hand. Any suggestions?
