It came first thing this morning!! Yey!!!

Its an .72ct ACA I VS2 from Whiteflash. As always I got excellent customer service - even though I wasn''t actually spending much more. I upgraded from .55 to .72 but I can really see the difference!! I love it!!!

It scored .6 on the HCA and a few people said it might be better to go for a diamond which scores between 1 and 2 instead to avoid head obstruction shadowing. I really worried about this as I had already ordered the diamond. I had a long chat with Brian at Whiteflash and he assured me I would love the diamond...... which I do!!! I have to admit I don''t understand the in''s and out''s of the numbers of a stone so I am happy to trust the experts! Less brain strain!

It also faces up very white.

That looks so much bigger. It looks great on your hands. What kind of band do you wear with it?

Maisie,

It''s beautiful and looks great on your hand. It does look bigger. Enjoy it.

The only thing though, when customers come into your store and see your ring, they won''t want what''s in the cases. Hope you don''t work on commission.

I love it! It''s beautiful and looks awesome on you! I have a diamond that scores a .8 HCA and at first I worried that it''s not between the 1 and 2 that most people like. But I love my diamond and I''ve gotten (in person) compliments from other PSer (IMO those are the best compliments)! Don''t let the numbers bother you. What matters is your eyes love it! Congrats! Wear that baby at work and show it off.
