Hi all,

I''m new here - I''ve learned so much from this forum!

My engagement ring from James Allen arrived this morning, and I''m thrilled. It''s sleek, contemporary, and simple...even better, it was within our budget!

center stone: 0.76 F SI1 ideal cut
ring size: 5.25

Pictures to follow

*Note: for whatever reason, the diamond isn''t sparkling as much in photos (incandescent lighting?). It''s really beautiful in person though, especially in better lighting.

Congrats, Lawstudent! I wouldn''t describe it as "cute" at all, I think it is as you described: sleek, contemporary, simple, and if I may say so, very sexy! I think your setting is a great choice, very protective of your center diamond, and it looks fabulous on your hand. Enjoy, and again, congratulations on your engagement!

Very nice! But more handshots needed!! I have never seen a setting like that, very sleek and modern, but still has a classic feel to it. It looks great on your hand!

I LOVE the setting, and the ring looks gorgeous on you! Are you sure that''s a .76? Because it looks huge on you! Where is the setting from? JA also? I''m off to check right now! Congratulations on your beautiful ring!
