You always crack me up, DKS!
Yes, I am very lucky to have a fantastic husband who is very understanding and who spoils me!!
I have to say though all of these are borne out of sheer hard work. We''re finally enjoying the fruit of our labour.
You can see my other bling under "jewellery collection" if you do a search under my name. If you''d like, I could take more photos of my newly reset ring. Leeme know.

Lien, I love your rings and truly think they are huge and perfect on your small finger! I know this is just my opinion, but I think a 5 ct. round might look a little over the top. What you have now is very large, but classy and elegant. By the way, what kind of solitaire setting is that? Of course, it might not be one that we can access here, but I like it!Date: 11/24/2007 1:36:13 AM

Thank you, Linda.
My earrings are 1ct and 1.03ct. The 1.03 has larger spread due to its larger table (57%) and does look visibly larger. I am trying to get another diamond to match it and perhaps reset the 1ct into another pendant.
The earrings, bracelet, etc. are just gorgeous, too! You have wonderful taste!
Oh, and regarding your earring stones. Don't match them by weight. You match them by the diameter measurement. And the table is not the right measurement. Two diamonds can have the same diameter and be a great match even if they don't have the same carat weight or table %. Look at your diameters..they should be around 6.4 or 6.5mm. That is the measurement you want to match most closely, and I'd want the tables to be within a couple of percent..say 55-57%.
