That was a mouthful! Look what''s a comin'' my way!

It''s a Brian Gavin Signature .468 K SI1. It''s also my first ideal cut diamond. How excited am I?

A special thanks to Shimmer and the other folks who responded to my thread in RT when I was contemplating setting a K in rose gold. You guys are great enablers!

Not to sound like a broken record, but Leslie is a doll, as many of you know. Responsive, sharp, attentive. When I called to discuss the diamond''s inclusions I just about soiled myself when Brian got on the phone! To discuss my little diamond! This is when I understood how much pride he and Leslie take in their work. Brian and I spoke for at least 15 minutes not just about the inclusions but about why I chose them, what kind of diamond I was getting, etc. I simply can''t overstate what a pleasure it was to do business with them.

On with the photos...I may not have real life shots until Saturday.

I just received my K SI1 bezel pendant from BGD on monday - and the K looks alot whiter IRL than I expected it to

although that may have something to do with the stunning cut of a Brian Gavin Signature H&A diamond. I''m sure you will love it

It''s beautiful! What a pretty shade of rose gold. That''s my favorite, a soft blush pink. I can''t wait to see the photos you take yourself.

Thank you so much for the lovely compliments. You are all right - I cannot wait to get this thing on my neck! Miss Dayna, why have we not seen more pictures (other than your av) of your beautiful pendant? Huh, huh?

The design came from a couple of places. I''m pretty tall and broad-shouldered so delicate chains tend to get lost on me. I got the idea of the beaded chain from a friend of mine who I''m trying to recruit to PS (C, if you''re reading this, thanks!). She has one in yellow gold and I like how the beads have just a touch more presence than a chain. Lesley very wisely suggested keeping the beads as small as possible so as not to overwhelm the diamond. I think the width of the chain is 1.2 mm.

And if it hasn''t been obvious from my last 5-10 posts, I am totally in love with rose gold. It looks purty on me.

Gah. This is my dream necklace. I love it so much! I''ve been lusting after a DBTY-inspired necklace but in rose gold. I''m so glad to see an actual one, rather than the one I picture in my head!

It is sooooo beautiful. Enjoy it!
