It is truly a beautiful work of art! Thanks for the info, LGK, I had just wondered about that. Your ring is indeed perfect in
every way! Hope it brings you joy when you look at it every day!!!

 

[LGK]

Yet more

***swoon***** I LOVE those french cuts! My gosh, they take my breath away!!!!

 

[LGK]

That's it for the moment; I will try to get a few more tonight at home

 

[canuk-gal]

HI:

ring

cheers--Sharon

 

[yssie]

That's it for the moment; I will try to get a few more tonight at home

And.. it must be said, a matching band with this orange blossom design - just like in this shot - would be an amazing complement

 

[OCmom3xboys]

B E A U T I F U L ! ! !

Perfect setting for your stone.

 

[singer]

OMG! That is my dream ring if I ever saw one! Honestly....before I even saw this post, this was my dream design (in general...with the french cut sides...bezel...etc) for a ring! Wowza! You are one lucky lady!!!!

 

[Echidna]

LGK, that is BREATHTAKING! What an amazingly beautiful work of art. I'm loving those french cuts; thanks for all the pics so those of us who never get to see such rarities can enjoy too!

I am predicting an absolute avalanche of new work for Victor...

PS. I shop at my grocer because it's the one with the best lighting for sparklies. Nothing wrong with picking the "best" bench if you have to choose one in the first place

 

[Aoife]

That is just gorgeous! The quality of the details-milgrain, engraving-the balance and flow of the design is just breathtaking. Wow!

Congratulations, LGK, I think your OEC is going to be very, very happy in its forever home!

 

[vespergirl]

Wow, it's just gorgeous!

 

[vintagelover229]

There's nothing to add that hasn't already been said! It's the most beautiful ring I've ever seen and quite honestly my dream ring to a T! Wear it in good health and it looks beautiful in it's forever home!

You look beautiful wearing it too

The long wait has come to an end...and it's a beautiful milgrain bezel engraved piece of French cut OEC heaven.

Drool.

 

[Dreamer_D]

It is just lovely, perfect, stunning. I think this setting is by far the best home your diamond has had. The engraving work is awesome, wha ta special touch that only you really get to enjoy. And the french cuts! To die for!

 

[poshpepper]

Wow!!

***SWOON***


This is seriously my dream ring down to every last detail... it is just total perfection!!!!

Thank you for all of the pictures and feel free to post more if you must ....please

 

[Ara Ann]

Wow...now my eyes are sore, from staring at your gorgeous ring! SO beautiful! Thanks for posting all the pics for us! LOVE it!

I love being able to burble about jewelery with you guys- none of my IRL friends have much interest in it.

slg47, yeah the bracelet is kinda overshadowed I think they go pretty well together at least, with the big faceting.

Victor!! Thank you again, *so* much- even my husband was impressed with the workmanship on it and he just isn't too into jewelry (surprise huh?)- it really is absolutely perfect for me.

Yssie- you are evil, evil . Tempting me to go try on that orange blossom band that one of the dealers here at the antique mall has. Luckily, or unluckily, it was ginormous... but it looked realllly cool with the new setting!

singer & baby nurse- I guess great minds think alike huh? Haha! I would totally recommend Victor Canera for this style of setting, especially since Leon has declared it off limits to anyone except those who buy a center stone from him. (Which seems silly since Wintotty, who got the first one I think, had an AVC in

I wasn't able to get any decent pics last night- got home too late and the artificial light in the house is lousy- but maybe later this afternoon I will go sit on the roof and take some, with or without kitty litter! The lighting is good up there if the sun is out.

 

[Burk]

Absolutely STUNNING!!!

 

[LaurenThePartier]

Yup. PERFECT.

 

[anne_h]

Gorgeous!!!

 

[lknvrb4]

I love those french cuts, beautiful ring!

 

[Laila619]

Wow! This is such a fabulous piece! It's a work of art!

 

[OCmom3xboys]

I can't get over how beautiful your ring is? I've noticed that you are an antique jewelry collector, is there is story (family heirloom, ebay buy, etc) about your center stone?

 

[rmm]

that is a beautiful ring! congrats!

 

[Lovinggems]

Speechless... it's beautiful.

 

[stci]

Beauty... beauty... beauty!!!

It's the first time I saw double milgrain and I love it! The setting is to die for and the diamond too! Congratulations and wear it in good health!

 

[stargurl78]

That thing is a work of art!!!! Absolutely perfect!

It was an ebay find, actually. I found it in 2008; it was set in this really elaborate modern setting with two .33 ct side stones and a triple halo. Looked like a brick on my hand, lol- really OTT with the original setting. So it was reset as soon as I could manage. It's one of the unusual OECs that scores well on the HCA. I'd bought it to resell but as it turned out, I couldn't part with it

 

[katedrac]

Little late seeing this thread but, gorgeous Ring, beautiful. Your stone couldn't find a nicer home.
P.S. I own one of Victor's rings too, I agree with you that the workmanship is top notch.

 

[Love Street]

WOW WOW WOW!!!!!!!



I aboslutely looooove how your ring turned out - it is truly the perfect home for that stunning rock! I love the engraving on the shank and the beautiful gallery, and I love those tapered French cuts! I truly think that the warmth and the faceting of those sidestones is the perfect complement to old warm cuts - match made in heaven!!

We are definitely warm-tapered-French-cut-sisters!

I remember reading your first thread on your GORGEOUS honker and thinking there was no way I'd be able to sell it! I'm so happy that you decided to keep it!!

Every last bit of your ring is perfection- a true work of art
