Oh my that is gorgeous!
What is your finger size?I have only been married 6 months and thanks to all of these beautiful 5-stone rings on PS, I'm already trying to think of ways to convince my husband that I will *need* a 5-stone ring for our 5-year anniversary |

Thanks to ALL of your for your wonderful comments! I do love it. At first I was concerned that 1.5cttw would be too "much" on my finger, and as the ring was being made was getting worried that I should have gone with 1.25cttw... but I am glad I went with my gut feeling! Since I am wearing it as a stand alone ring, it really speaks on its own! And, since I usually don't wear a lot of other jewelry, this ring is just perfect as my statement piece --- a statement in so many ways!
For those that have asked, my finger size is 5. I will see how it feels in the summer when my fingers expand, but for now it is comfortable, if not a smidge loose especially after being outside in the colder weather. I have to say, the 5 stone ring goes with just about ANY outfit! Casual, dressy, work, suit, even just running around in sweats and hoodie! Here are a few more attempts at a profile shot and handshot...I promise to post more when I can get to it! It's been gross and gray and rainy here lately, so once the sun comes out I'll be sure to take more photos and post ! Thanks to everyone!

Another shot... by the way, do you guys have suggestions on how to maintain/clean my ring? I have been taking it off before going to bed and when in the shower/getting ready in the morning ... I am so afraid of damaging it but I want to keep its beautiful brand-new sparkle!

Gorgeous!!!
And very helpful for me to see as I hope to get one of these eventually! I think this is the size diamonds I would choose also!Many of us have little ultrasonic cleaners to clean diamond rings. I don't like to fool with that all the time, so other times I just use a jar of jewelry cleaner to soak the items and then rinse with warm water. Some people use a soft baby toothbrush to occasionally clean the stones, but I wouldn't do too much of that because I'd be worried about wearing down or scratching prongs. |

Pretty!!
As far as cleaning, I've been having good results with a once per week soaking in hot water with a little dish soap. Cuts the grease and makes the ring look new and sparkly! Anne |

That ring looks absolutely gorgeous on you!! The sparkle coming from those diamonds is amazing! It's a classic and elegant beauty, many congrats!
As for cleaning, I really like Weiman's jewelry cleaner. I've tried several brands and I really like this one the best. I just soak for a minute clean gently with a soft bristle toothbrush, then rinse. I would also recommend a professional cleaning at a jeweler's once in a while. I had mine done recently and it really brought back a lot of the sparkle. (and I clean my ring a lot!) |

Your ring is stunning! It's classy yet "blingy" all at the same time.
Congratulations After reading some suggestions here on PS, I've been soaking mine in hot water mixed with a little Mr. Clean, and sometimes scrub gently with a baby's toothbrush. About three years ago, I purchased a Jewel Jet and only used it once on my old ring. Now, I use it at least twice per month on my new ring, and it works great! |

Those are all great cleaning suggestions! Jamie at BGD also suggested soaking the ring in warm water with a dab of Dawn dishwashing liquid. Has anyone tried this?
More shots! And apologies for my scaley-looking skin! It is so dry here.... I think every gal should have a beautiful five stone ring! Woo hoo!

yes, I usually soak in hot water with a drop of dishwashing liquid, and also use a small 'go-between' toothbrush
