A magical sparkly 3-stone for my [now] fiancée.

I spend the several days before proposing browsing PriceScope and asking her about settings. She had suspected I might be popping the question soon since we had been talking about it and settings for a while, but that threw her off and she was completely surprised.
NiceIce was fantastic. I can't thank Todd & Robin enough. Aside from helping me select a fantastic stone (I didn't have time to go back and forth) and making the process painless, they helped me figure out I couldn't afford pink diamonds
, offered suggestions and sources for settings, and helped me ship the stone and setting multiple times saving me a ton of money and more importantly letting me make my schedule. My next chunk of carbon will come from them (unless it's an 8-star).
Leon Mege was a late decision for me. I had seen the portfolio and loved some of the pieces, but assumed he was out of my price range. I couldn't find anyone local to make what I wanted and had seen postings to the contrary here on PS so I gave him a call. At a little bit more than Vatche and less than Michael B in price, I think the cost is quite reasonable for the exquisite workmanship. For those that aren't local, it might be worthwhile to go through a jeweler that works with LM like Wink. I don't think the final cost would be that much different (there is trade & retail pricing) and in my case there might have been less miscommunication. Regardless, the end result speaks for itself or at least it would with a clean ring and better lighting.
