Yssi, what kind of makeover are you getting? How can you possibly make it any more perfect? Inquiring minds want to know.

Haha nothing drastic - probably nothing even noticeable to anyone else! It's just a couple of things that were bugging me enough to send it back. All the prongs thinned out and "pointier'd", gallery crossbars shaved down, insides of trellis fully polished. And mayyyybe... a matching wedding band! If the colour matches. I'm absurdly excited about getting a band that matches in colour!

I'm totally beginning to see the love of "pointier'd" prongs, so I totally get that. And I totally get the matching band thing. Nothing bugs ME more than when they're ALMOST the same, but juuuuust not quite.

When are you getting it back? Will we see glamour shots?

<---------- obviously, i liked yssie's ring very much so had a v similar one made!

i also drool over kaleigh's oval and half moons, diamondfan's emerald and boston jeff's cushion.

long term (oh, say 10 years from now) goal is a 5 carat emerald or cushion, so they are always on the top of my list of faves :sun:

DH thinks I'm nuts with my reset too, but my ering and wring are doing the same thing together! The way I see it, if they're almost there but not quite, that kills me more than when they look completely not matching (which is what I'm going to do).

DH thinks I'm nuts with my reset too, but my engagement ring and wring are doing the same thing together! The way I see it, if they're almost there but not quite, that kills me more than when they look completely not matching (which is what I'm going to do).


Your new setting is going to be absolutely blinding!! And I'm really glad you're getting what *you* want :bigsmile: :sun:

Will you keep your WRing as is? And I was thinking how they looked so well-matched in the pics :oops: They do look fabulous together!

I am keepimg it and thank you. I guess what I meant was more of an unmatched match. I hope my hubby loves it as much as I know I will.

All the rings are beautiful! I love them all ... I now suddenly have an urge to get an OEC. I have always wanted a really nice one .. but mine is ugly and cut poorly.

sql47 - We have the same taste and I love your ring too!

Here are some more of my favorites ..

Amethyste-
wasn't your OLD setting a bezel in a halo? THAT was one of my ALLLL time favorites.
You need to start a new thread about what you are think about doing to Lemony this time :D

Actually, it was a pronged Halo setting that sat VERY high! the pear diamond was sitting in a yellow gold cup and was extremely hard
to clean. Although it was aesthetically pleasing setting, it was the most difficult to keep in a whole, stones kept popping in and out and I think my the jeweler here saw his weekly pay increased because i'd be there all the time - also snagged it everywhere, punched holes in things and scratched myself with it...

I love the current setting :( I am not a very delicate person I came to learn with time... I bent the tip prongs at least 5 times already - so I guess that a Bezel will probably be better for my pear and also my nerves cause I keep looking down every 5 mins making sure I didn't bend anything.

I am not sure if I'll start a thread... I'll think about it :) It will not be a Halo either... I decided to go understated, all monochrome. 22KT Yellow Gold with floral motifs that I have drawn - with surprise rubies and yellow diamonds :)

Wow! That sounds gorgeous! So rich and decadent, as befitting a 5.13ct honker!

I also had a bezel in mind for my pear, but in 18kt gold on a palladium shank. Sadly, my jeweller advises against that, so I have to keep looking for ideas. Can't wait to see what you decide on!

Okay, I just came across this ring and HAD to post it. It belongs to Lovestreet. It is absolutely stunningly beautiful! If I could have any ring in the world...

Gosh, I am still so in love with Ericad's OMC set. Does anyone know, does she still own that ring? I have a vague recollection that she reset it....

So many rings on PS make me a little green. :tongue: Kaleigh's definitely tops my list as a fellow oval gal. Her ring has me definitely cosidering half moons. Slg's cushion is just perfect!
